Property Description

Five broiler meat chicken sheds with a total 8629 m2 on nearly 20 acres of flat land, with a large 400m2 house designed by an architecture. Other large buildings with plenty of storage, and three large grain silos.

This farm is located north of Christchurch in the farming district of Oxford on South Eyre Road.  The five sheds are on a separate drive to the house section, with the whole property having been neatly set up by the current owners on nearly 20 acres of land.

One shed is older, and the four others have been progressively built since 2001, latest in 2014.  All sheds have the latest technology and are easily operated by two labour units. Also located on the property are two large buildings that have earlier been used as a small chicken processing plant..  One is currently used as storage , and the other by the current owner for a workshop and other vehicles.  Also included is a self contained apartment with two bedrooms, bathroom with a shower.

Three 250 grain silos are on the property and leased on an annual basis to nearby farmers.  These have been extensively upgraded for the future.

The 400m2 architecturally designed house boasts five large bedrooms, an indoor heated salt swimming pool, two lounges, an office and modernised kitchen. The house is built in brick, set out in picturesque grounds, and of course I forgot the man cave where many a social hour has been spent.

Chicken farming has proven to be a reliable business, and is a self employed farming activity with good leisure time.  The last recession proved that this type of farming is resilient with income increasing during the recession time, when other types of business were really struggling.  If you are looking to change course in your life, and considering a new challenge, then I suggest that this would be the perfect opportunity.
