‘Binya’ covers 858 acres (345 hectares) across 2 titles and has long held the reputation as one of the best farms in the Widgee area. It is currently divided into 12 internal paddocks with 5 supporting bores servicing a number of infrastructure points. There is clear opportunity to run an efficient cattle operation with fodder production and support extra income streams including a property rental.
The property boasts:
• Fertile soils: Black alluvial (lower flats) rising to loamy scrub soils.
• Pastures: Grasses - Green Panic, Bisset Bluegrass, Rhodes, Paspalum, Pangola, Setaria, Hameln. Legumes - Siratro, Wynna Cassia, Stylos.
• Usability: 90% cleared and grassed with ~40 hectare steeper timbered land.
• Water Infrastructure: Secure bores & troughs to all paddocks, including house, and springs and dam
• Proven Cattle Operation: Efficient paddock and laneway setup all feeding down to a substantial cattle yard infrastructure (200 head capacity, crush, Taktic plunge dip, old dairy).
• Further Infrastructure: Multiple sheds allow for machinery, hay and general vehicle storage along with a lockable workshop (4 bay Colorbond shed, 10m x 12m machinery/hay shed with skillion, 6m x 6m workshop).
The location has good 40” annual rainfall and makes for a very good base of operations, given its proximity to selling centres and general South-East Queensland zones (Gympie, Woolooga, Murgon, Biggenden, South Burnett).
There is bitumen road frontage in both directions, making access very easy and with the ability to run ~250 trade cattle or combination including stud, this highly productive farm has solid income earning attributes along with further opportunities that can be unlocked (beef stud centre; transport centre; further increases to fodder and cell grazing).
The property also has an east facing, recently renovated three-bedroom home, which comes with a modern kitchen, bathroom, large double garage and established gardens serviced by bore water and rainwater tanks.
This sort of property doesn’t come on the market that often and clearly lends itself to a proven cattle operation supported by great locale and substantial infrastructure.
