Agents Comments:
"Snowleigh" has earned a reputation over the years for growing some outstanding wool as well as merino sheep, with some cattle thrown in the mix to ensure a minimum of three income streams and to assist with pasture management in general. The current LEP combined with the zoning, also allowing the astute investor and grazier some excellent possible long-term options.
