INTRODUCTION The offering of Arrowfield Stud’s Summer Farm is to be one of the most significant rural listings in the Hunter Valley of this calendar year. Arguably without peer on the Williams River, this 702 Acre property was purchased by Arrowfield, one of Australia’s leading Thoroughbred Studs in 2019 as part of a drought mitigation strategy. Summer Farm is virtually drought proof. During their tenure, Arrowfield have developed what was already a first-class parcel of land into a Hunter Valley trophy property. Couple extensive new equine improvements with an outstanding central location, Summer Farm is a unique offering that will suit a diverse market.

Having sold down approximately 25% of their broodmare band, and with their main Scone property now well out of drought conditions, the vendors are offering Summer Farm to the market as it is superfluous to their needs. Arrowfield are a premium brand, and their development of Summer Farm has been no exception to the rule of completing all capital works to the highest standard.

PROPERTY OVERVIEW

The property has a rich history as a working farm known as Oaklands, which was first registered in 1923 as a dairy farm running Jersey and Holstein Friesian cattle. Following deregulation, a beef cattle enterprise was established and it was used for this purpose up until its sale to Arrowfield. From thereon, the property has been developed to its current standard and usage for Thoroughbred horses and cattle.

SUMMER FARM

Flanking the creek and river, the majority of Summer Farm comprises creek flats rising to moderate slopes. The majority of the country is arable and a large percentage of the paddocks have been pasture improved to ensure productivity, performance and capacity.

Isolated into two areas, approximately 35 Hectares is timbered with Australian natives.

Usage:

Country:

Over the past three years Summer Farm has been developed into a showpiece rural property that has the capacity to run over 200 mares plus cattle. All equine fencing on the property is to the highest standard with laneways established for all weather access and livestock handling ease. Alternatively, Summer Farm would be the perfect large scale spelling farm.

For the cattlemen, the property would be ideally used as a high-capacity breeding or backgrounding property.

Summer Farm has a strong fertiliser history and extensively improved pastures including a mix of White & Sub clover, Rye & Prairie grass with pockets of Paspalum & Kikuyu. Unimproved pastures tend to be a mix of summer grasses including Paspalum, couch and kikuyu. The majority of paddocks used for horses have been improved by the current owners.

In addition to the larger equine paddocks, there are 7 day yards, and 6 stables.

I am familiar with the site having worked previously at both Dungog Shire and Port Stephens Councils, and completing strategic planning work as a consultant in the respective Council areas.

The development options currently would be limited to the provisions under the current Local environmental plan i.e 40 ha minimum lot size and the rural permitted uses (prospective purchasers to review the zoning cert and contract).

In my opinion, the site is a good site for further development as, with the exception of the lower flood affected country and the scattered vegetation, the site constraints are generally conducive to further development.

In a strategic planning perspective, it is acknowledged, any rezoning/planning proposal for rural residential in the current climate has high levels of uncertainty and there is a protracted time frame applicable. However, in my opinion, at some stage in the future (likely medium to longer term), I believe the site has strategic merit for a higher use. This view is supported by the fact, the Langlands Road precinct has previously been considered in strategic planning documents for the ‘Rural West’ of Port Stephens.

Other large lot residential planning proposals in the PSC Rural West have been proposed at the lot size of 0.8ha per dwelling.

It is noted there is a statutory process that rezonings/planning proposals are required to follow and establishing strategic merit is critical to this.
