'The Glen' is offered to the market for the first time after 84 years in the same family ownership.
Located in the Hawarden foothills with good annual rainfall, this 135.6632 hectare property has an easy flat to rolling / medium hill contour with exceptionally good shelter being a feature and is fenced into approximately 32 paddocks.
The farm is well watered with 2.5 units from the local Waitohi County scheme with a good amount of storage tanks. Cattle have been mainly farmed in recent times with the focal point being a Charolais stud. A Nutrient Budget for the 2013-14 year is available and this indicates that this property is well suited for cattle farming in the future. The property also lends itself nicely to sheep and would make a good hogget block or for breeding and finishing.
Farm infrastructure includes a two-stand, raised-board woolshed with covered yards, several implement sheds and five hay sheds. There are separate sheep yards adjacent to the woolshed and there are good sized cattle yards.
The character three-bedroom homestead is set in a large and established garden setting providing both shelter and privacy. It has been modernised and renovated over the years and features a kitchen / living / dining / lounge area which is heated by a large Pioneer log burner, separate lounge and office.
In summary, 'The Glen' has excellent improvements, pastures in very good heart and is renowned for livestock performance. Close to Hawarden and Christchurch, the local community has a strong spirit and is well serviced by a variety of agricultural services.
Inspection will impress.
