'Sharopher Hills' is tucked away in the well known Bearbong district, only 35 km away from Gilgandra with good access off Beames road.
With a three bedroom and one bathroom home, it's the ideal property to get a start in the farming market or hobby block for the more adventurous. Consisting of approximately 933 hectares (2305ac) of land ranging from fertile open cropping and grazing to heavy timber over 2 seperate titles, making a joint purchase a possibility.
The vendors currently run a cropping program with 500 acres currently under crop with an additional 150 acres coming into production for next season. The previous year saw the wheat yield up to 3.5 t/ha a testament to the 300 tonne of lime that has been spread on the cropping land in the past 2 years. The soil type varies from red loam to heavier grey clays and areas of highly fertile basalt. Additional land could be cleared to increase the cropping/grazing area. The property has not been stocked for the past 3 years so does have a body of feed available and has comfortably carried 200 plus breeding cows and calves in the past. Boundary fencing ranges from new to some requiring attention similar to the 14 internal paddocks. The property is well watered by 9 dams, a bore and an unequipped well. The bore is approximately 30 meters deep pumping at 2000 g/hr. Average rainfall is 650mm.
Infrastructure includes a new 25x12 metre machinery shed, 14 kw of solar, old 2 stand shearing shed with steel sheep yards, old timber cattle yards with loading ramp and second one bedroom hut for additional accommodation.
