The Farm — A Highly Developed Livestock Enterprise
Nanowie comprises approximately 1,500 acres (607.14 hectares) of established farming country, strategically developed for efficient livestock production.
The property is subdivided into 29 main paddocks, all connected through a central laneway system leading to the wool shed and cattle yards. This layout provides exceptional stock-handling efficiency and enables the property to be managed with minimal unnecessary movement.
The fencing is a standout feature, having been exceptionally maintained and developed over many years. The property is offered with fencing that requires no significant redevelopment, providing a new owner with immediate operational confidence.
A strong fertiliser history spanning approximately 16 years further demonstrates the ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving the productive capacity of the farm.
Livestock Infrastructure
Nanowie is exceptionally well equipped for a modern prime lamb enterprise, with infrastructure designed for both efficiency and capacity.
• Renovated three-stand wool shed
• Extended undercover steel sheep yards
• Capacity for approximately 500 sheep under cover
• Excellent holding yards adjoining the sheep yards
• Steel cattle yards approximately 15 years old
• Roofed working area over the cattle yards
• Two hay sheds
• Four-bay machinery shed with mains power
• Small chemical shed
• Central laneway system providing efficient access to the livestock facilities
Outstanding Water Security
Water is one of Nanowie's significant strengths.
The property benefits from an excellent and highly developed water system incorporating:
• Bore
• Well
• Six dams
• Electric and solar pumping systems
• Holding tanks
• Reticulated trough system servicing each paddock
Water is pumped to holding tanks before being distributed throughout the property to the extensive network of paddock troughs.
This combination of multiple water sources, pumping infrastructure and reticulation provides an exceptionally high level of water security and operational flexibility.
Nanowie currently runs approximately 2,000 mature, mixed-age composite breeding ewes, together with 800 ewe lambs.
Traditionally, the mature ewes are joined in January for lambing in June/July, while the ewe lambs are joined in March for lambing in August/September. For the past 16 years, Nanowie has also maintained a spring-calving cattle herd, running a minimum of 40 cows and calves annually.
Nanowie is ideally positioned just 14 kilometres from the Centre Hamilton, one of Western Victoria's key agricultural service centres and a renowned livestock region.
The property is situated in the heart of the Western District's prime lamb country, offering access to established agricultural services, livestock markets and supporting infrastructure.
With road frontage along three boundaries and a non-animal farming operation adjoining the fourth, Nanowie also benefits from a highly practical and secure overall layout.
A Turnkey Western District Opportunity
Nanowie is far more than a substantial parcel of productive country. It is a fully developed agricultural enterprise where the major infrastructure, accommodation, fencing, water and livestock handling requirements have already been addressed.
The combination of 607.14 hectares, 29 paddocks, excellent fencing, outstanding water security, extensive livestock infrastructure and two fully renovated homes places Nanowie firmly in the category of properties that are ready to be operated from day one.
Located within one of Australia's renowned prime lamb regions and in close proximity to Hamilton, Nanowie represents a rare opportunity to secure a highly improved, tightly held and genuinely turnkey Western District farming enterprise.
Properties of this quality and level of improvement are seldom offered.
Nanowie — a proven, well-developed and exceptionally presented prime lamb operation, ready for its next chapter.
