Cropping /Finishing /Grazing

This most desirable property has been presented to the market for the first time after having been in the same family ownership for the last 83 years.

Seldom do we find a property located only 3.7km from town on a sealed road, close to all town amenities and schooling that has the opportunities for cropping, finishing, baleage, hay and grazing.

The land contour comprises of flats, undulating to medium hill and one steeper back paddock. This allows for easy access. The property pasture is mainly rye grass and clover with two paddocks sown in plantain and has good soil types with Awamate silt loam on the flats and Mohaka sandy loam on the hills. There is an excellent fertiliser history with annual applications of 10 ton super phosphate. The land has been subdivided into 13 main paddocks with mostly conventional post, wire and batten fences. There is also some electric fencing. Water source for the stock is from a bore that supplies water on demand via a pressure pump to troughs in all paddocks. In addition there is one spring feed dam and natural run off for extra water. For stock handling there is a small set of sheep and cattle yards with a load out race. A large four bay implement shed plus workshop is located close to the yards and farm house.

The four bedroom house is elevated, has rural outlooks and sits in amongst established gardens and has an orchard nearby with a variety of fruit trees. In 2001 extensive renovations were carried out and the house has an open plan kitchen/dining and lounge with the kitchen having a breakfast bar, gas hob, wall oven, rangehood, dishwasher and a pantry. For heating there is a log burner on a wet back, two wall mounted heat pumps and an HRV system. The bathroom is modern with a bath, shower, toilet and vanity.
At the front of the house a large deck that can be accessed from several rooms, the kitchen/dinning entry used most as this is an ideal area for entertainment and summer barbeques. Next to the house is a garage incorporated with separate wood/garden tool storage.
