The training track is approximately 900-meters long offering the opportunity to exercise at home conveniently and safely.
The property features a stable complex with two large stable boxes, feed/tack room, float/car bay, outside office for clients, round yard, loading race, holding yards and a 20x40-meter arena with a solid base that just needs a new surface could be utilised.

The property has two titles set on 34 acres comprising 25 paddocks with the outside boundaries and horse paddocks all double fenced in plain wire with electrics. There are nine loose boxes in the paddocks for shelter as well as established tree shelter belts. A large two-bay hay shed provides substantial storage.
