Well Located Dairy Support Unit


Country & Co are proud to market "The Gree", which is located in South Hillend and owned by the Dunlop family since 1932. Historically the property has grown very high yielding crops of wheat, barley and cocksfoot seed, along with 42 years of breeding high performance recorded sheep.

Infrastructure consists of a three stand woolshed and covered yards, six bay implement shed, two bay hayshed, high pitched machinery shed/workshop and storage shed. The vendor is retaining some adjoining land and could make available use of cattle yards and a further 9ha to lease.

The property has been operated as a specialist dairy support operation for ten years, with the water scheme upgraded at this time. The Lessees have treated the property as their own and it is in extremely good heart with good fertility and clean pastures.

This property will impress with the well-balanced soils and stunning mature shelter throughout. Contact the sole agents for further information.
