1,010ha (2,495ac) approx.
Just 2 hours from Melbourne and 40 minutes to Ballarat, is this outstanding and rare opportunity to secure one of the Lexton district's most substantial holdings.
This versatile and productive farm of approx. 85% arable land overall lends itself perfectly to a mix of both cropping and grazing, with 26 main paddocks, all with catchment dams.
The property is currently run predominantly as a cropping/self-replacing merino flock/prime lamb enterprise in conjunction with rotating pasture management.
After a 5 year cropping rotation, paddocks are sown down to either rye/clover, Phalaris/clover or cocksfoot/clover. These paddocks see an annual blend of fertiliser applied with Single Super Potash Blend in Autumn.
The property will be first offered as a whole, if not sold then in two contingent lots:
Lot 1 "Home Block" - 1,325 acres (536ha) approx.
Original and character filled 1940's 3BR homestead, large 3 stand shed is located at the homestead with an excellent set of steel Pratley yards. There are also 3 Machinery sheds and an original and a set of timber cattleyards. The spring-fed Doctors creek with numerous waterholes running through the property on the eastern side provides a wonderful source of stock and domestic water. 3 Haysheds provide enough capacity to store 800 large square bales undercover.
Lot 2 - "McPhees & Warrior" 1,170 acres (473ha) approx
On western end of property with Sunraysia Highway access, 3 stand raised board shed (no power connected) and machinery storage.
