'Westdale' 169L Narromine Road Dubbo
Centrally located an easy 15 minute drive from both Dubbo and Narromine, 'Westdale' offers many of the attributes highly sought after in the small farm market. The generous 154 acres (62.57 hectares) of level box country with soft arable loams have a history of producing fat livestock and excellent crops.
Very well watered, 'Westdale' has 2 bores - both providing drinking quality water in addition to 2 stock dams. One bore is equipped with a mains powered submersible pump sending water to 2x5000 gallon tanks (one concrete, only poly) and reticulated to troughs throughout the property providing excellent stock water security. A total of 3 poly and 2 concrete 5,000 gallon tanks collect rainwater from the sheds and house.
Operating infrastructure includes 2 large colorbond clad, flat roof sheds. The larger 30m x 6m storage shed is almost fully enclosed with one open bay, while the 12m x 7.5m open span workshop with concrete slab and 9kw of solar panels located on the roof, providing power to the house & sheds. Both sheds have single phase mains power connected. A set of timber & steel stock yards with cattle head bale & loading ramp centrally located and providing stock handling for sheep and cattle.
Fenced into 3 main paddocks and with all of them having been farmed by the current owner, 'Westdale' lends itself to a range of enterprises. Most recently used as a fattening block for sheep & cattle, cereal cropping for grain & hay has also been undertaken to great success.
The c1970's 4-bedroom plus office homestead has seen better days and currently is in poor condition. With some renovations this structure could be returned to a liveable dwelling, while the inground pool also has the potential to be swimmable by summer.
