Description
Faithfully farmed by the same family since 1954 this sheep, beef breeding and fattening unit is a large property with fabulous future potential. It encompasses approximately 361 hectares (900 acres more or less) of farmland divided either side of State Highway 14 and has benefited from decades of agricultural practices.

One older cattle yard on the other side of SH14. Due to a continuous drenching and spraying programme the property is free of any major weeds and pests.
