“Trentham Falls Farm” (established 1878 by the Alexander family) is on 14.13 HA (approx. 35 stunning acres) and is on two separate titles.
Located very close to the bustling, tourist town of Trentham, and adjoining the delightful Trentham Falls Reserve, the farm holding was created by Mr William Alexander over 130 years ago and is rich in 19th century history and character.
