Roseneath benefits from an average annual rainfall of approximately 800 mm per annum. Stock water is supplied via a modern reticulation system.

The property is well fenced and divided into 36 main paddocks. The paddock design is considered ideal to cater for rotational grazing and cropping production models. The current owners have invested in and developed many fenced tree lanes which now serve as established wind breaks and offer shade to many paddocks.
Roseneath is a highly productive New England grazing and farming property. The fertiliser history and ongoing pasture and cropping development on Roseneath will enable the new owners the opportunity to harness the immediate benefits of a high yielding farm.
