267 Acre Irrigated Dairy farm, only 10 minute drive from Smithton on Trowutta Road. The bonus with this property is that it has 100 acres Zoned Rural/Residential on the Upper Scotchtown Road, and could be certainly a great subdivision in this popular Residential area of Smithton, subject to CHead Council approval. The flat to undulating contour of the farm gives the property great drainage and a combination of mixed soils. The “K”line irrigations covers aprox 140 acres.
The property has had extensive renovations carried out recently with an as new 31 Herringbone dairy, new yards, cattle crush, new fencing, new laneways, barn & shed, and the installation of a great asset to the property in a sawdust calving pad with high fencing for stock shelter.
The new calf shed will hold 160 calves. The comfortable and sunny home has 3 bedrooms plus a separate office building with rumpus room for the children. The water is from 2 dams and 2 more great dam sites are available. There is a new water bore on the property and only needs the installation of the pump. The farm production last season was 81,000 kgs milk solids (bad year weather wise.) and with the 50 acre lease block it would be reasonable to milk 260 cows.
The vendor is will to look at a 50-50 dairy arrangement for a suitable farmer and could take the property over at any time.
