Clover Downs


Deadline sale (unless sold prior) 12pm, Wed 9 Dec 2026

Clover Downs presents itself as an opportunity not to be missed. Comprising 221ha (more or less) of excellent farmland with Barrhill deep silt soils that are second to none. The farm has established hedges and rolling terraces throughout, providing character and excellent protection for livestock from the prevailing winds. Currently used for arable production, grass and lucerne baleage trading, as well as grazing ewes and fattening store lambs. The property poses potential for grass-based wintering systems for young stock or the security of a cut and carry feed bank, complimenting dairy operations.

The farms yard is functional and complete with numerous machinery and storage sheds, including a large five bay steel-framed workshop and machinery shed, approximately 1,000T of grain storage and a wool shed and sheep yards.

The five-bedroom home was built in 2007 by Smitheram & Frew Builders and is a great place for a family or manager. The open-plan kitchen and dining areas centre around a large Yunca log burner with wetback, providing ample heating for the whole home. A separate lounge is a great social space, with sliding doors opening to the patio with spa and canter lever umbrella. The home is surrounded by manicured hedges providing excellent shelter and privacy.

The farm cottage has had extensive renovations over the years and now offers fantastic living quarters for a staff member or added income as a rental.
