Versatile, Reliable Property


This versatile property of 255.5 hectares (subject to survey) lies well to the north and is of flat to gentle undulation. The farming options are diverse with the current owners farming sheep and beef. They have also harvested cereal crops historically as well as dairy young stock during the reference period. Land area can be tailored for purchasers and can be decreased from 255 hectares.

The main homestead is a large five bedroom brick and roughcast home, which was renovated back in 1986. Value could be added through some modernisation, providing the new purchaser the option to add their own mark on the home. Sheds include a large four bay shed, which has previously been used to rear calves, along with a three bay implement shed, old woolshed and wooden sheep yards. There is a full water system in place which is sourced from neighbouring property. Farm is well laid out into 36 paddocks and has some internal lane access.

Overall a good scale property offering many farming systems for the purchaser.
