Comments:
Situated in the central west region of NSW, "The Wattles" has been in the same family ownership since 1894 and has a long and proud history of producing quality lambs and superior merino wool.
The property has been run as a grazing enterprise with annual oats crops grown for supplementary feed.
Water is a distinctive feature with a large number of dams which have all been cleaned out over the previous 10/11 years plus an equipped bore located at the house plus various rainwater tanks.
The property presents very well with clean paddocks, well maintained fences and healthy livestock which are all good indicators of a successful enterprise.
"The Wattles" presents an ideal opportunity for new owners to capitalise on the hard work of generations of the Woodhouse family over the last 125 years.
