Set on 125.32 hectares (subject to final Title being issued), this beautifully presented dairy farm at 455 Lower Duthie Road, Kaponga offers an impressive combination of scale, quality and presentation. The property features predominantly flat to easy rolling contour and is exceptionally well laid out around a central race system, providing efficient access throughout the farm. With a strong production history including 146,029kgMS produced last season, the property is a quality dairy unit that is immediately appealing from the moment you arrive.
The 32-aside herringbone cowshed is well equipped with an in-shed feed system, automatic cup removers and an Allflex drafting gate, while a comprehensive range of supporting improvements provides excellent infrastructure for the farming operation. Calf sheds, implement sheds, hay barns, silage storage and additional farm buildings are well positioned throughout the property, complementing the efficient layout. Water is supplied by the reliable Inaha Water Scheme through three interconnected intake points, servicing the farm, dwellings and stock water system, while the current effluent system provides storage and application across approximately 32 hectares, with consent in place until December 2047.
The farm winters approximately 320 cows, with around 80 calves raised on the property each season, supported by a good level of home-grown supplement including silage, wrapped bales and summer turnips. Approximately 250 tonnes of Palm Kernel blend is fed through the cowshed each season, with additional Palm Kernel fed in the paddock. Pastures, fencing, races and the overall presentation are all maintained to a very good standard, while secure waterway fencing and a well-developed paddock and race system provide for an efficient and practical farming operation.
Completing the property are two comfortable homes, providing excellent accommodation for family, staff or those involved in the day-to-day operation of the farm. The main dwelling is positioned alongside the cowshed, while the second centrally located home offers further practical accommodation.
Beautifully presented from front to back and supported by quality infrastructure, productive land and a well-established farming system, this is a dairy property that combines scale with an exceptional level of presentation and will demand attention.
