Taieri dairy opportunity
PGG Wrightson Real Estate are pleased to offer this 242.9342ha Taieri dairy unit, very handily located nearby to Mosgiel and Dunedin City.
It offers good scale as well as modern farm infrastructure and improvements and is achieving very solid production levels under the current management. Supplying Fonterra, 640 cows are calved, producing consistently around or north of 300,000kg MS, with mixed age cows and R2 heifers wintered on-farm.
An array of relatively recent farm improvements compliments the operation, including 50-a-side Herringbone dairy shed with grain feeding and Pro-track, excellent calf rearing facilities and support buildings. Of particular significance to the property are the three Herd Homes and associated concrete feed pad, feed handling area and effluent system, providing excellent capability to manage through all seasons, as well as wintering-on
The farm is subdivided into 60 paddocks, with a very good network of quality farm laneways as well as a modern loop-line water reticulation system supplied by bore.
The residence is a recent four-bedroom, twobathroom family home, heated by log-burner and heat-pump. An additional sleep-out is located nearby to the home, along with fivebay shed and separate utility shed.
Being situated on the outskirts of Mosgiel and only approximately 18km to the centre of Dunedin City, the property’s proximity provides enviable access to a choice of schooling and tertiary options, plus the wide range of professional services and recreational opportunities the city has to offer. The location also offers enhanced opportunities to attract drive-in support/relief staff.
This is a well set up dairy unit, comprised of multiple titles, doing the production, and with possession negotiable, is well worth inspection.
