The purchase of this unit, located in an area known for its ease of farming with a good summer climate and above average rainfall for the region, is a great property to add to any property portfolio.

Most winters see consistent grass growth and with some supplements fed out, animal health and condition is easily maintained.

All improvements within the property are to a very good standard and with two homes create further options for the farm owner and their employees.

  • Land is 70 per cent flat to rolling with some medium hill, creating options
  • Milking 240 mixed-age cows doing 400 kgMS per cow and rearing 70 calves on whole milk
  • Targeting 90,000 kgMS this season
  • On-farm bore water supply with reticulation to all paddocks
  • 18 a side herringbone dairy shed
  • Two x multi-bay half-round calf rearing or storage sheds
  • Six-bay implement and storage shed with electricity - lock up and concrete floor in two bays
  • Consistent pasture care with good fertiliser history and re-grassing regime
  • Three-bedroom family home with a second comfortable three-bedroom cottage
  • A 15.1934 lease is available by negotiation

Every aspect of this property reflects a good and maintained standard of improvement, and in so, gives a new owner the confidence that this property and this location will, without doubt, fulfil their expectations.

First farm properties with appealing climate locations are most sought after.
