It is with great privilege that we offer to market this iconic property which has been owned by the Williams family for over 140 years producing top quality livestock and offering unrivalled views of the world-renowned Fox Glacier with Mt Cook and Mt Tasman in the background.
Wayne and Maggie Williams are widely recognised throughout the country as leaders in the breeding of high-quality cattle underpinned by the superior genetics of their Glacier Horned Hereford Stud. Their progeny has topped the local calf sales for over a decade, being well sought after from finishing operators throughout the South Island.
Deer breeding and velvet production is also a big part of the operation, having been developed since the early days of live capture and later the investment of high-quality English Red bloodlines. A small flock of sheep run on the property rounds out the livestock classes.
Located at Fox Glacier in South Westland the farm is offered to market in two blocks, the "Cook Flat Block" located directly below the township of Fox Glacier, the second block "Thirsty Culvert" is located off State Highway 6 approximately 3kms south of the township.
This drystock operation has been developed to a very high standard with a full range of tidy farm infrastructure and provides ideal scale as a standalone unit or alternatively a strategic acquisition not often found in this tightly held location.
Offered for sale in the following lots:
1. Cook Flat Block + Walsh's Block: 474.5226 hectares (freehold) plus additional DOC grazing licences
2. Thirsty Culvert: 75.5498 hectares (freehold)
3. Or as a combined package
Inspection of this once in a lifetime opportunity is recommended.
