Rarely do we have the opportunity to bring to the market a flagship dairy farm of exceptional scale, location and productivity. Located in the highly sought-after Winchmore area, just 15 km northwest of Ashburton, this premier 297 ha farm has been part of a larger family operation and consistently delivers impressive production, averaging 1,747 kgMS/ha or 492 kgMS/cow over the past five seasons. At the heart of this flagship operation is a modern 60-bail rotary cowshed with fully automated systems, in-shed feeding, an updated effluent system with solid separation, and two holding ponds. Numerous calf sheds, cattle yards and additional outbuildings ensure operational efficiency. The accommodation is equally impressive, with a large five-bedroom home, plus three three-bedroom homes and one two-bedroom home. Craigellachie Dairy 2 has been owned by the same family since the early 1970s and is now available for a new owner to continue its legacy. With top-tier soils, low-cost irrigation and outstanding infrastructure, this property represents an exceptional opportunity to secure a high-performing dairy farm in a prime location.
