Agents Comments:
'Runnymede' combines production potential with beauty. There is a good reason why early squatters settled along the creeks and billabongs first. They knew the best soils were along the waterways and over the years nothing has changed. The property is currently easily running 1,250 ewes with followers, and this equates to around 12DSE.
