Tara Farm

Auction: From 1pm, Fri 22 Nov 2013 (unless sold prior)
3 Deans Avenue, Riccarton, Christchurch

This wonderfully located 147ha property has been faithfully farmed and developed by the present owners over the past 28 years. Its suitability for a number of different farming policies is very wide, due to its range and quality of soil types, providing great grass growth/cropping, through to stand-off areas suited to dairy-type operations, if required. Complementing the quality land-holding is a well-cared-for, recently refurbished, solid, warm and sunny four-bedroom home which is set in established gardens. Infrastructure is perfectly adequate with stock handling facilities suited to sheep mainly, though adaptable to dairy support, which certainly represents a strong option for future use.

The property is located at 2038 Oxford Road, approximately 5km from Cust, 12km from Oxford township and less than an hour's drive from Christchurch. It is located in the Waimakariri District.

Historically there has been a policy of running 1,000 ewes, buying replacements and carrying 30-35 head of rising two-year-old cattle on a trading basis.

This property is of a good size, in a good location with an excellent balance of soils and ensures a great future along with potential for possible land-use change.

Well sought-after, in an excellent location - inspection is a must.
