254 Muir Road, Te Awamutu, Waipa

Convenient location, diverse opportunities

This multi-faceted 126ha (more or less) farm in three titles is positioned in the highly regarded 'golden triangle' north of Te Awamutu and has real potential for change of use.

Current dairy production is around 90,000kgMS from all-winter milk production off approx. 185 cows. The agistment of the herd replacements plus beef finishing compliment the current landscape. The 20 ASHB dairy shed incorporates an in-shed meal feeding system and teat sprayer. The numerous support buildings across the farm include a new implement shed, calf and storage barns. The farm is well subdivided and raced with all-weather access to every paddock. Water supply for both farm and domestic requirements originates from a district water scheme. The soils are consolidated peat and provide a base that responds well to regular fertiliser applications. The effluent disposal capability is a two stage sand trap and bladder system with effluent irrigated across the farm.

Comfortable accommodation is furnished by the two homes which provide three and four bedrooms respectively. Given the elevated positioning of the homes you can view both the sunrise and sunset and the mountains beyond.

This farm has been a consistent producer under a share farming arrangement and will be attractive to those who want to continue with such a system or others seeking to scale up and fully explore the yet-to-be-realised potential under an owner-operated system.
