For the first time in four generations, 'Lake Station' is being offered for genuine sale and consists of 1009ha (2500 acres) in three titles.

Fronting onto the Buller River and with the magnificent St Arnaud Range as a backdrop Lake Station is a truly remarkable grazing property. Comprising mainly extensive river flats and elevated terraces with predominantly developed pastures with some steeper hill faces and native bush on the Southern boundary. The owners have conservatively farmed this property and they estimate over 2/3 of the property being mowable currently running 8000 stock units with further potential.

Running a balance of breeding cows along with a highly regarded Hereford stud and highly fertile crossbred ewes the vendors aim is to finish all the stock on the property with all supplements being made on farm.

Lake Station is in terrific heart, being subdivided into 90 plus paddocks with pasture renewal a high priority backed up by good grazing management and regular fertiliser. If first impressions count, this property will not disappoint as the two comfortable homesteads are complemented by huge workshops, ample implement, storage, and hay sheds plus near new cattle yards and an older woolshed and yards.

Home to the local airfield and situated just 10km west of the popular resort town of St Arnaud, Lake Station is, without doubt, the most significant sheep and beef property to be offered for sale in the Tasman Region in many years.
