353 Swamp Road, Russells Flat, Sheffield, Selwyn, Canterbury Grass Factory with Options!

This 42.94 hectare (more or less) property in two titles, features an expansive, five bedroom family home with outstanding views along with a full range of farm infrastructure. The current vendors utilise the property as a beef and sheep breeding/finishing unit safe in the knowledge that the heavier land has been fully mole drained, well fertilised, and has the ability to grow an abundance of grass throughout the year!

The land is fully deer fenced into approximately 14 paddocks with a central lane and is supported by a large, four-bay shed (with power) that houses the deer shed at one end, deer yards, a good set of cattle yards and a three-stand wool shed and sheep yards. Additional farm infrastructure includes a newer two-bay implement/hay shed which could be utilised for calf rearing.

The permanent material home is surrounded by sweeping lawns, lush gardens, and established trees. Five bedrooms and an office are supported by a family bathroom (with toilet) in addition to a mudroom with shower and an additional separate toilet. A large farm-style kitchen sits adjacent to the open-plan dining and living room which flows to an expansive separate lounge. Large bi-fold doors from the living spaces provide fabulous indoor-outdoor flow to a large deck, whilst a Masport log burner, a Rayburn, and two heat pumps keep the home warm and toasty in the cooler months. A double internal access garage, separate laundry, and an abundance of storage complete the picture!

This is a rarely available, well-set up smaller farm, in two titles with the bonus of being able to continue leasing an additional 20 hectare block next door (subject to lessor approval), in a desirable location that is renowned for grass growth whilst still being within an easy drive of both Darfield and Christchurch for shopping, schooling, and off-farm employment. Whether you are a retiring farmer, first farm buyer, investor, or an existing operation looking for expansion - this property offers opportunity and options!
