The land comprises river flats to gently undulating country, with biologically managed fertile black alluvial and red loam soils creating a base for grazing, cropping or fodder production enterprises.
About 154ha is arable of which 48ha is irrigated from the Murrumbidgee with a Hazt diesel generator driving the Upton centre pivot on 6” PVC underground mains to three concrete pivot pads of 16ha each.
The pivots are growing lucerne and oats, and lucerne, oats and ryegrass this year.
Water is pumped from the river to a 90,000l tank that supplies seven troughs and the garden. In addition there are three dams, a billabong and an unequipped well.
“Avalon” has healthy productive soils with above-average soil carbon levels and active plant species throughout the entire year, which allows for year-round grazing.
The property has been biologically managed since 2006 - encouraging soil microbiology to unlock nutrients – and inputs have been sourced to balance nutrient rations.
The dryland country is sown to established perennial pastures and approximately 22ha oats this year.
Fenced to seven main paddocks, there are steel cattle yards with concrete race and loading ramp and two weaner yards.
Ample shedding includes the high clearance powered machinery shed with workshop and two steel storage sheds.
A three-bedroom cottage completes this package. The interior has been updated, while timber floors and an open-plan kitchen add warmth to this country character home.
The weatherboard home has been freshly painted and sits amongst established trees in a well-maintained garden.
