Located in the well-regarded Mokotua/Longbush district, this productive dairy unit offers flat contour, excellent soils and a practical, easy-to-manage layout.

A centrally positioned 32-bail rotary dairy shed with ACRs and in-shed feeding is supported by calf rearing facilities and sound infrastructure. Currently milking 244 cows and on target to produce approximately 125,000kg MS for the 2025/26 season, the property reflects consistent performance. A well-presented four-bedroom homestead complements the operation, while a reliable water supply, tidy effluent system and strong pasture performance combine to create a straightforward and appealing dairy unit in a sought-after Southland location.
