Slatted sheds in the form of a four-bay shed with rubber mats and a six-bay one with a cattle crush in the feed passage can also be found along with two more A-frame sheds of four and five-bays respectively. From a feed storage view, there are a pair of covered silage pits, a pair of meal sheds and a meal bin.
The residence is a traditional two- storey farmhouse and, while presented in good condition throughout, could benefit from some upgrading and modernisation.
