The Farm:

There are five dams, with two being spring-fed and never running dry even during recent droughts.
The property has a 50-meg megalitre irrigation license and an 80mm pump.
A bore, operated by a windmill and reaching a depth of 19.5 meters, pumps 1,093 litres per hour to a 25,000-liter tank located at the shed.
There's a shearing shed measuring 18 x 12 meters, constructed of timber and iron.
A historic shed has been in use for around a century and features two stand electric gear.

The land itself consists of alluvial river flats, undulating basalt country, with an elevation ranging from 900 to 1,000 meters approximately. It's highly productive, suitable for sheep, fat lambs, cattle, and various crops like barley, oats, and lucerne, thanks to the high water table on the river flats. Pasture includes Phalaris, clovers, and rye grass.
