334 McLeod Road, Ongaonga, Central Hawke's Bay, Hawke's Bay

'Woodside' has been held in the McLeod family custodianship since 1868 and this sale represents the opportunity to purchase a 274-hectare (more or less) sheep breeding/finishing and grazing property in the sought-after Springhill district 5 km west of State Highway 50 in Central Hawke's Bay.

Currently run as a predominantly sheep breeding/finishing operation with some cattle being grazed at peak times, it has the farm infrastructure to cater for multiple pastoral options. Good fertiliser history and the farm currently has Quality Assurance and NZ (Farm Assurance Programme) GOLD Plus accreditation standard.

There is a large 4-bedroom, 2 lounge homestead set in established grounds. Farm buildings comprise a 3-stand woolshed and stock yards, with a good range of ancillary farm buildings including whare, hay barn, implement shed and a two-side fertiliser bin and dry weather airstrip.

'Woodside' has great contour ranging from flat to predominantly easy rolling and to areas of steeper sidling's and is well subdivided by way of conventional post, wire and batten fencing, with there being a set of satellite sheep yards in the centre of the property to make stock work and handling easier. The aesthetically pleasing stands of Totara are a real feature of Woodside with there being a multitude of recreational opportunities in the local area.

The property has dual water supplies with the house supplied by water tanks and the farm and garden/toilet water being sourced from a bore beside the woolshed and then reticulated around the easier parts of the farm. Dam and natural water supply the rest of the farm.

Inspections are strictly by appointment only.
