Water security is a standout feature, with the Paterson River forming the property's southern boundary and providing a reliable and valuable water source. A riverside Grundfos pump transfers water to an elevated 30,000 Gallon holding tank above the homestead, from where it is gravity-fed to the homestead & filtered for drinking, watering gardens & with the house catchment, filling the water troughs.
Together with five farm dams, six stock troughs and a high rainfall average of approximately 40in per year, the property is exceptionally well serviced for agricultural pursuits.
