We are excited to offer to the market this extremely well-presented and meticulously maintained 271.4877 hectare sheep, beef and deer breeding and finishing property. Located in the heart of North Canterbury, it represents an outstanding opportunity to secure a productive and picturesque farming block with scope to make your own.
Currently run as part of a larger farming operation, the property features easy-to-manage medium hill country, with the majority of the land being cultivatable. Well set up for efficient operation, the block is largely deer fenced and complemented by quality infrastructure. This includes a four-bay shed featuring one secure lock-up bay, complete with a concrete floor and power supply, a deer shed, deer yards, large wooden cattle yards, and large sheep yards.
Fertile soils support a diverse mix of pasture and crops, contributing to its reputation as a highly productive and well-developed block. This includes up to 35ha of grass renewed every year. One paddock is planted in lucerne, alongside kale and rape for winter and summer crops. Approximately 400 to 500 bales of hay/baleage are produced annually.
The property currently finishes stock from the home farm, plus trading stock. This season 600 cross bred ewes have been lambed down, 1,250 fine wool lambs are being finished, 50 two-year-old beef heifers calving, and 100 beef calves have been wintered on the property.
Serviced by a network of well-maintained tracks the property features extensive trimmed shelter belts and established trees throughout. Stock water is supplied through 3.75 units of county water and is supplemented by dams and natural waterways.
With the ability to operate as either a standalone or as a highly desirable addition to a larger operation, this versatile and well-appointed property offers more than expected. Development, balance and location all combine to create an offering that will appeal to a buyer seeking to take their farming aspirations to the next level.
