Various Options with Easy Contour


Well located sheep and beef property that boasts desirable farming qualities such as flat to gentle rolling contour and well-balanced soils. The farm, due to contour, allows for various farming options, traditionally running sheep and beef but having a history of grain production.

The farm is well set up with infrastructure including an original four bedroom house, three stand woolshed with attached covered yards, large grain shed and an internal stock lane that feeds into most paddocks which allows for ease of management.

Stock water on the property is mostly gravity fed into all main paddocks and has a booster pump, it is sourced via roof catchment and two back up bores. Good array of shelter and native plantings throughout that are aesthetic and practical as well as some ponds.

This is a reliable property that has been farmed to a high standard, which is visible by the healthy pastures and would make an excellent first farm or local addition.
