288 Lavenham Road Patutahi, Gisborne District

Need a large commercial premise in a rural environment? Looking for an established income stream, lifestyle appeal, and genuine versatility just 15 minutes from Gisborne CBD? This exceptional property could be the one for you!

Years of dedication and thoughtful development have laid the foundations for a truly outstanding lifestyle and income-generating opportunity. With the hard work now complete, the vendors are ready to move on to their next chapter - inviting buyers to bring forward their opinion of value by way of formal offer.

At the heart of the operation is a substantial 450sqm commercial building featuring approximately 5.2 metres of clear-span, a mezzanine floor, and a large 4.8m x 4.8m electric roller door. Purpose-built for efficiency, the facilities include a workshop, processing office, tearoom, refurbished staff amenities (toilet and shower), cool store, and multiple supporting outbuildings. A high-capacity chiller can hold up to 48 bins or 640 packed crates on pallets, complemented by an avocado grading line with room for future upgrades. The high-stud shed, front loading bay, and layout also provide potential for third-party packing services, adding another income stream.

Set on 7.77 hectares of prime, flat and fully drained land, the property offers a balanced mix of established production and space for new development to future-proof returns.

Completing the picture is a well-presented four bedroom character home, full of charm and surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds. A spa pool tucked under a private gazebo creates the perfect place to unwind - offering a lifestyle rarely found alongside a commercial-scale operation.

Even Cyclone Gabrielle couldn't disrupt what over a century of careful land stewardship has created - the land and buildings remained unscathed, and avocados were back on the market as soon as the roads reopened. This is a resilient, proven property that blends lifestyle, income, and infrastructure in a way that is both super manageable and full of future opportunity.

Don't look at building your own or leasing someone else's. Come and consider the many possibilities on offer here.
