The property is currently running breeding cattle but would be suited to sheep, cattle or virtually any grazing enterprise. The gently undulating country, rich soils and high country rainfall would also lend itself to cultivation. Owner advises that the property typically runs 200 plus breeding cows.

REMARKS: This well located, productive farm is demanding of attention. On inspection, the soft, fertile and productive soils are obvious. That it comprises so many paddocks is a strong indicator that it has been used for intensive grazing for many years. Ideally located, both to major population centres providing a full range of services, and for the ideal climate and rainfall to maintain healthy permanent pastures. The house has been lovingly restored recently and is very well presented, and the extensive network of water lines and troughs ensures water safety is a feature. Absolutely committed owner this is a genuine sale.
