Tara, 1425 Halls Creek Road, Manilla NSW 2346

Positioned just 14 km* east of Manilla and 59 km* from Tamworth with sealed road access, "Tara" presents a rare opportunity to secure a highly productive and exceptionally well-improved rural holding combining irrigation, grazing, quality infrastructure and an outstanding lifestyle setting.

Comprising 172.4 hectares (426 acres)*, the property features an attractive mix of fertile creek flats, productive arable slopes and gently undulating hill country. Approximately 53 hectares are currently utilised for cultivation, with a large percentage of the property arable and suited to a variety of agricultural pursuits from livestock to hay production.

A stunning tree-lined driveway leads to the immaculately presented homestead precinct, beautifully positioned amongst established landscaped gardens and overlooking the creek flats.

Water is a standout feature of "Tara", with extensive frontage to Halls Creek and the benefit of an 82 ML* Halls Creek irrigation licence. Productive creek flats are irrigable via a three-phase electric pump supplying underground mains. Livestock and garden water is secure and reliable, with an electric bore feeding a header tank and reticulated trough system to every paddock. Additional water is supplied by a windmill, five dams and 77,500 litres of rainwater storage.

The property is subdivided into 11* main paddocks with excellent fencing throughout, approximately 80%* having been renewed in recent years and incorporating extensive electric fencing. Historically the holding has comfortably carried 50 breeding cows* plus progeny.
