Located in the Southbridge area, adjacent to the coast, 'White Swan' comprises 73 hectares and has long been known as an excellent intensive cropping farm with its deep rich soils aided by a bountiful supply of irrigation water.
The soils, including Templetons and Waimakariri silt loams, are ideal for a variety of cereal plus specialist crops to be grown, combined with the temperate climate and irrigation. Current crops include maize, radish, barley and Italian ryegrass. There is an excellent irrigation water supply with approximately 50 hectares watered by a six span Bauer centre pivot with the potential to increase the irrigated area.
Other improvements on the property include the two-bay storage shed, with one lock-up bay, plus a good standard of fencing around the property incorporating approximately seven paddocks.
A special feature is an area of approximately five hectares of wetlands which has been extensively planted with natives creating an oasis of tranquillity.
