Gibraltar View has been responsibly and lovingly cared for over the past 20 years. The owners diligently practice weed control and pasture improvement, the fencing is stock proof and the internal road is in very good order. This is an easy property to like and manage, the size suits a variety of grazing operations including equine and farming families looking to downsize to a smaller scale or upsize to a larger scale, either way you will be close to Canberra's facilities and conveniences.
The owners have always understocked the property although their Stock Agent estimates a carrying capacity of 70 to 90 cows, season-dependent. The location is a big bonus, its close to the city, shopping centres and schools are not far away. Gibraltar View is only 33 minutes to Civic and 14 minutes to Tuggeranong, no more issues with contractors, repairers or transport, this farm is literally on Canberra's doorstep.
