A historic Hunterville farm and land-based training school  is on the market.

Otiwhiti Station, 15km northwest of Hunterville in Rangitīkei, is for sale, having been in the Duncan family for generations. It has been sold before, but stayed within the family.

The 1679-hectare hill-country farm, which winters more than 13,500 stock, is also home to an agricultural training school.

Conrad Wilkshire of Property Brokers said there had been a lot of people at the farm’s open days.

“We’re expecting strong interest.”

Charlie Duncan declined to comment on the sale, but he said he hoped the land-based training school would continue. The school has a licence to continue.

The training school started in 2007 and now has 16 students a year.
