"Coomala" - 2 Titles - 250 acres - 101 hectares (approx.)
"Coomala" is situated just west of Kyabram in the heart of the Goulburn Valley irrigation district and will be offered for sale for the first time since 1951.
The Mackenzie family have been successfully milking their well-bred dairy herd, AI bred, predominantly medium framed first cross, Friesian, Jersey and Brown Swiss cows of which have herd test, and production details will be available and offered for sale separately to the successful buyer.
The property consists of two titles combining 101 hectares (approx) of land has two homes, both with 3 bedrooms providing comfortable living and present well. The main home at the dairy, the original family home, has two living areas, outdoor entertaining, tennis court with lights and sound original machinery shedding.
The second home is situated on the corner of Curr and Graham Roads (both bitumen roads) and could easily be subdivided off or provide extra family or working accommodation. The home has been refurbished and also presents well.
The dairy and irrigation system are major selling features of this property. The 24-aside swing over dairy has been modernised with computer and scanning technology installed for herd management. The 11,000 litre vat is auto cleaned and there is also an auto feed system. An ideal one man shed with drafting gates, air operated from the pit.
There is a calving pad under the lights close to the dairy and central all-weather laneway system throughout the farm comprising 32 paddocks, mostly permanent fencing.
There is a 25 megalitre turkey nest dam with 5 megalitre reuse sump, designed to reuse all run off water from the farm. The property also capitalizes on regional drainage, with a 180 megalitre unmetered diversion licence, very reliable with consistent large volumes recorded, a massive savings to the bottom line.
The reliability and availability of the back-bone channel has given management the ability to grow perennial and annual pasture and milk autumn and spring calving cows. The property successfully milks up to 350 cows.
Quality land, plant and water will be available at market value for the walk in walk out buyer.
A great family business option here at "Coomala".
