Picturesque Versatile Property


The vendors have owned this property for 33 years and during this time improved the overall farm which has excellent internal lanes, good fertility, stock water system and is well fenced including most waterways, 128 hectares is deer fenced.

There is an older deer shed, giving the option to run deer, with no capital outlay. The property has a superb main home that would lend itself to family living, positioned in a north facing attractive setting with lovely trees and spacious lawns. Farming infrastructure consists of a three stand woolshed, good set of sheep yards, cattle yards, four bay deer shed and various other support shedding.

Currently the property runs a mix of sheep and cattle in the past, but due to the land type and infrastructure would suit various options, including diversifying into some forestry. Dairy grazing also is another option subject to regulations.

This is a must view property for purchasers looking for quality infrastructure and a farm of good balance.
