About 2000ha was sown with wheat and oats as part of the 2022 winter cropping season.
The property also features about 200ha of controlled flood-out country. There is also a 167ha separately fenced leasehold paddock.
All of the seven dams have been de-silted in recent years. The house tank is regarded as one of the most reliable dams in the district.
The main four bedroom, two bathroom homestead was built in 2020 and features attractive gardens and a swimming pool.
