Description

Smart farming opportunity


This versatile Chertsey property is well-equipped for a variety of income streams. At approximately 104 hectares (plus 10 hectares Licence to Occupy KiwiRail land) the farm has excellent fencing and laneway access to all paddocks.

Fertile Chertsey Lismore soils and approximately 100 hectares of irrigation coverage underpin the successful current use as dairy support and arable growing potatoes, cereals, grass seed, peas, winter feed and green feed oats. Crop rotation, regular application of fertiliser and the existing groundwater consent, together with the Barrhill Chertsey Irrigation Scheme set the scene to build on current performance.

A total of 47 hectares of winter feed plus 35 hectares of green feed oats with 1,503 RSU's under the scheme Authorised Land Use. The property is currently grazing R1 and R2 heifers and wintering cows.

Tucked into a private spot surrounded by established trees, a three-bedroom cottage provides options to reside on-farm, accommodate staff, or add rental income to the investment. The home is permanent material and heated by a log fire. The double garage is a bonus addition for extra storage.

Located 14 kilometres from Rakaia township, and just 15 kilometres from Ashburton, the solid farming property combines rural peace and quiet with the convenience of town facilities close by.
