Located on Coxhead Road in Parakao, this 89.1320-hectare (more or less) grazing block has long served as an excellent support unit for the vendors’ dairy operation at 45 Jack Road (also for sale) - which is within walking distance. Well-raced and well-structured, it’s an ideal runoff for dairy young stock, wintering, or silage production.

The contour is a mix of rolling to steeper hill country, with approximately 10.5 hectares dedicated to maize and silage, taken up to twice per year. The paddocks are regularly fertilised and easily accessed via a good quality metal central race that runs to the back of the property. A large hay barn is positioned at the top of the block to support storage.

Water is reliably supplied by a petrol-powered pump in the Otarau Stream, which fills a 30,000L header tank and gravity feeds to troughs across the farm. There are also three dams that provide further stock water security. Fencing is in great shape, with around 20 well-subdivided paddocks, allowing for effective grazing management.

The block currently carries 100-150 young stock year-round, supporting a split calving system at the home dairy farm. The flexibility of this runoff is what makes it so valuable - it can absorb seasonal surpluses, carry autumn and spring heifers, and reduce pressure on the milking platform.

A solid set of cattle yards is in place, and the block includes stands of totara and small pockets of native bush, adding shade, shelter, and biodiversity. The neighbouring pine block is known for good pig and goat hunting, making this property as appealing for lifestyle as it is for farm support.

This is a well-run, nicely balanced block that fits seamlessly into any dairy or beef operation needing additional grazing scale close to the home platform.
