This property has 750 acres of gently undulating, heavy granite soil with permanent water in Crossing Creek, 20 dams (some spring fed), as well as another spring-fed creek. The main dam feeds troughs in the smaller paddocks, cattle yards and gardens, and there is a bore available.
"You can immediately recognise that this property has had an extensive fertiliser and pasture improvement program," says agent Paul McIntosh.
“There is an abundance of feed consisting of phalaris, clover, cocksfoot, rye and some residual native pasture. 2010 was the last time any herbicides were used on the property allowing access into the organic market.”

Fenced into 20 main paddocks, all boundary and internal fencing is electrified. A wide laneway leads to the centrally-located steel cattle yards providing a covered, concrete-based, crush and race working area with solar lighting.
Other improvements include a two-stand sheering shed, three-bay machinery/hay shed, five-bay vehicle shed and tractor shed, plus various sheep shelter sheds.
There are two cottages.
The main weatherboard cottage has extensive views to the north east and is nestled within established gardens. It offers three bedrooms, includes an ensuite and north facing sun room, and has been tastefully renovated. Open plan kitchen, dining and lounge room lead into a large sun room perfect for summer and winter use. Well insulated, it has two slow combustion wood heaters, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, three gas bayonets and ceiling fans.
The second older style cottage has three large bedrooms and an open-plan dining, lounge and kitchen.
