Cropping - Property ID: L11231722
2471acres
Location; Westdale is situated in the renown tightly held Upper Horton Valley. Recognized as some of the best cattle breeding country in North West NSW.
The Country; Open gently undulating country with an impressive mountain feature on the Western side of the property. Approximately 65 Ha of worked cultivation country.70 acres of L7 Lucerne was sown at the end of September 2020 and 70 acres of Sub tropicals were sown in 2015. It is estimated that approximately another 65 Ha could be farmed or cropped with contour banks in place with evidence of a history of this country being farmed. Natural clovers and pastures throughout the balance of country. There is approximately 620 Ha of breeding/grazing country and 322 Ha of heavily timbered mountain.
The Water; High 32 inch rainfall area. A high flow bore which is electrically equipped pumps to a centrally located 120,000 L tank which gravity feeds to 4 x 22,000 L tanks and then onto the troughs. An independent deep well pump pumps to a 22,000 L tank which feeds the Eastern side of the property and the Lucerne paddock. The property also has double frontage to the seasonal Eulowrie Creek. 7 dams.
Improvements; The cattle yards are well built with crush and loading race and are watered for holding cattle. There are 2 sizeable machinery sheds, the first being 24m x 12m with power attached and a lockable workshop. The second shed is 18m x 12m.A large rainwater tank is attached to the larger shed. There is a 2 room fully contained workers quarters with power, amenities, and septic. Sweeping views of the property can be enjoyed from the front deck of this cabin. Building entitlement to build a new home if required.
Livestock operations; Westdale is ideally suited to a number of agricultural pursuits. Current operations over the last 6 years have been heavily focused on a cattle breeding operation producing quality Angus and Angus cross weaners which have been sold in local markets or taken on by management to fit into a fattening/feeder operation. The vendors estimate that Westdale would conservatively run 220 cows and calves, turning the calves off at 6 - 7 months of age. With a pasture fertilising program in action, the carrying capacity could be greatly increased. The property would also lend itself to an ideal backgrounding operation due to the soft pastures, cultivation, and sheltered country.
