From the listing agent
In the words of Todd Skudder, Bayleys - Dargaville
Here's a 2.2766-hectare block across two titles, now surplus to requirements. The land gently rolls and features higher points that open out to sweeping views of the Araparoa River. Previously a limestone quarry used to support the construction of State Highway 12, a geotechnical report is available for those interested, though further investigation would be required for any development. Well fenced and with a dam, the property provides a solid base for grazing, land banking, or building your dream rural home.
Less than five minutes from the quiet township of Paparoa, you've got a store, petrol station, primary school, and playcentre all within easy reach, while Dargaville is forty kilometres away for additional amenities. This blank canvas offers both space and privacy, making it a prime spot to create your ideal rural lifestyle.
Sold on an "as is where is" basis, refer to available documentation.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
