Well Set Up Dairy

This 90 hectare dairy unit, just north of Morrinsville, is well set up with a herd shelter, excellent dairy shed and two good dwellings.
The contour is a mix of flat, gentle rolling and a small portion of hill with races going out to all 70 paddocks.
The 24 aside dairy (approximately 10 years old), Redpath herd shelter (106m x 27m), enclosed 6 bay half round barn, 4 bay and 3 bay barn, large workshop and concrete maize bunker are all in close proximity.
Currently 270 cows are milked with production of 92,500 milk solids. Calves are grazed on until the 1st of December and 60-80 cows are wintered off for four weeks. Bought in feed includes 17 hectares of maize and 100 tonne of grass silage.
Water is sourced from a bore in the tanker loop with a submersible feeding two manacons and pressure fed through 32 and 25mm alkathene lines to the farm. Variation 6 consent has been granted for 300 cows.
Effluent from the dairy and herd shelter goes into an unlined clay pond with a pump and stirrer. A travelling irrigator and irrigation gun are used to spread effluent over around 17 hectares with underground pipes and hydrants.
The fencing is a mix of 2-3 wire electric with permanent on the boundaries.
The main dwelling has been completely refurbished (five years) as it did have some weather tightness issues. A Code of Compliance has been issued from the Matamata-Piako District Council. The home has four bedrooms, ensuite, well-appointed kitchen, separate dining and two lounges. It also features a large laundry area and loft utilised as a child's play area. A double garage and a storage shed is adjacent to the dwelling plus a good array of fruit trees.
The second dwelling is a three bedroom 85sqm home in good condition. With a school bus going past the gate and town just a few minutes away the location cannot be faulted.
With a price of $4,300,000 + GST (if any) and stock and plant also available the sellers have decided to exit the industry in a determined fashion.
