Versatile Otautau Farm


This character property is well located on the outskirts of Otautau and described as a versatile farm that would suit dairy stock grazing, cut and carry, or dry stock farming.
The current owners have undertaken a recent major tasteful refurbishment of the four bedroom home with excellent indoor/outdoor flow to decking. Good range of other support buildings including woolshed and deer shed, allowing for multiple farming systems.

The owners have purchased another property and invite offers over $2,995,000 and with negotiable settlement date. Viewing is a must.
