We have for sale a modern and very productive dairy unit converted to a high standard in 2013.
With modern dairy infrastructure throughout and a simple one race system this property is easy to manage with minimal staffing. A centrally located 36 aside shed with feeding strips off each side of the yard is located by a large calving barn and calf shed.
Overlooking majority of the farm is the modern, warm and sunny (2007 built) four bedroom plus ensuite home with a beautiful back drop of native bush. There is also a two bedroom cottage for staff.
This is a very consistent and productive farm which is located handy to both Winton and Invercargill in a district renowned for reliable production.
