An exceptional opportunity to secure a substantial freehold landholding within the strategic Mixed Activity zone of the growing Opotiki township.
138 St John Street comprises a generous 9,770m² (more or less) freehold site and is currently utilised for backpacker accommodation, servicing visitors to the Eastern Bay of Plenty and wider Motu trail network.
Importantly, the property holds existing resource consent for bike hire and shuttle services together with backpacker accommodation, providing flexibility for a future owner to reinstate tourism transport activities or further develop the site (subject to District Plan provisions).
The underlying value lies in the significant land size combined with its Mixed Activity zoning. This zoning enables a wide range of compatible commercial, residential and community activities, supporting redevelopment, intensification or staged mixed-use development over time.
Opotiki is located in the eastern Bay of Plenty, approximately 44km east of Whakatāne, with direct access via State Highway 2 and serving as the gateway to the East Cape. Positioned on a harbour inlet and bordered by rivers and coastline, the township supports agriculture, forestry, tourism and a growing aquaculture and marine sector. Ongoing harbour and infrastructure investment continues to underpin growth and future demand.
A rare chance to secure scale, zoning flexibility and long-term development potential in one of the Bay of Plenty's evolving regional centres.
