Description

Premium dairy unit


This exceptional 118 hectare (more or less) dairy unit is a truly appealing proposition. A property of this calibre with a desirable location, close to northern outskirts of Hamilton, presents all the attributes of a quality farm investment.

The current operation milks approximately 400 cows through a well-equipped 30-aside herringbone shed with reed slide pulsators, and a protrack drafting system for ease of management. With an average production over the past three seasons of 193,256kgs of milk solids. Strategically positioned infrastructure, allows the centralised laneways to have been shaped to provide quality access and stock flow to all paddocks. Two covered Redpath loafing barns and nearby feed bunkers are a great asset and provide extra winter comfort and environmental benefits. Cows and heifers are wintered on-farm; with calves at the run-off. The land has a great balance of contour with predominantly flat sandy loam soils rising in areas, to allow expansive views over the property. Water is sourced from three separate bores, effluent management is a combination of two ponds, irrigating approx 30-40 hectares. Fencing is of a high standard being mostly five to two wire electric.

The exquisite main homestead of 400sqm has spectacular views and has been designed for large family living and relaxed indoor-outdoor entertaining. Two living areas, a big country-style kitchen and a guest lounge, is ideal for family time and socialising while peace and tranquillity are never far away in the suite of five bedrooms. Heat pumps deliver year-round comfort, with a schist fireplace taking centre stage. Two further quality homes provide ample workers' accommodation.

The presentation of the dairy is true testament to the vendors, over the past 20 plus years. With an excellent farm layout, quality infrastructure and strong clean pastures, it is a great productive yet sustainable dairy unit. Auckland to Hamilton via the expressway is only a short distance away, which can only improve the desirability into the future.
