Converted only nine seasons ago, this dairy unit is particularly well “spec’d” with modern dairy facilities, outstanding sheds and a comfortable home.

Central is the 50 bale rotary, complete with ACRs, in-shed feeding, with Protrack enabling daily yield and cell testing, heat detection and auto-drafting. Adjacent to the dairy are two composting cows barns and fully lined effluent pond, both designed with 500 cows in mind.

A total of 20 bays within three large high-stud sheds provides outstanding calf-rearing and storage facilities plus there are two half round barns and cattle yards adjacent.

All flat and subdivided into 35 paddocks significant cropping and re-grassing has been undertaken with around 12 hectares to be planted in maize this season.

The four-bedroom homestead, renovated in 2014 and reroofed last year, provides comfortable open plan living within established tree grounds.

The kids can walk to school with South Makirikiri primary school right on the boundary.
