LAWD is pleased to present for sale Cranes Neck, a rare strategic landholding combining a large-scale site suitable for a significant data centre development with proven agricultural productivity in Western Australia's principal energy corridor.
KEY INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:
Strategic data centre development potential
Rare large-scale data centre development opportunity comprising 1,048* hectares of freehold land within Western Australia's principal energy corridor, providing the scale to accommodate a potential hyperscale data centre campus of up to 800* Megawatt (MW) (subject to council approval, infrastructure, connection and other approvals).
Exceptional proximity to critical energy infrastructure, including an existing dual 132/330 kV transmission corridor approximately 2* kilometres to the east, where the 132 kV line is being converted to 330 kV under Clean Energy Link North, a committed, State-funded upgrade due to be in service by December 2027, alongside the natural gas pipeline which provides connectivity via the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline / Red Gully infrastructure 9* linear kilometres to the north and the Regans terminal 22* linear kilometres away.
Significant scale and development flexibility, comprising two freehold titles of 804* hectares and 243* hectares, providing potential for staged development, transaction structuring and complementary on-site infrastructure or renewable energy generation.
Strategically located 85* linear kilometres north of Perth, providing a rare combination of metropolitan proximity, substantial land scale and adjacency to major energy infrastructure.
Potential pathway to an 800 MW data centre campus, with the preliminary site assessment contemplating staged development across five 160* MW facility blocks to an ultimate 800 MW facility load.
Further optionality through renewable energy, gas and water availability, with the large landholding providing potential for on-site solar generation, proximity to gas infrastructure offering potential backup generation solutions and groundwater availability supporting different cooling configurations, subject in each case to detailed technical assessment and approvals.
Highly productive underlying agricultural asset
Substantial and highly productive agricultural landholding, currently operated for grazing and cropping, predominantly fodder production and benefiting from 679* hectares of established pasture and cleared land, together with a productive mix of clay, duplex clay and fertile blended sandy soil types.
Demonstrated high-capacity livestock production, with the property reported to support 750* cows plus followers under a cell grazing program or 2,500 - 3,000* backgrounders across two rotations, with reported forage crop weight gains of approximately 1.5 - 2.2* kilograms per day.
Proven fodder and hay production, with approximately 200-300* hectares historically utilised annually for rotational cropping, principally supporting strip grazing and hay production. Average reported hay yields are 9* tonnes per hectare, with historical peak yields of 13* tonnes per hectare.
Secure and established livestock water system, supported by a main bore reticulating water through tanks to paddocks and yards, an additional flowing bore, various soaks and a substantial freshwater lake providing further water security.
Extensive operational infrastructure, including 21 paddocks, upgraded cattle yards (300* head capacity), extensive fencing, shearing/storage facilities, workshop and machinery shedding, hay storage and a four-bedroom homestead, supporting agricultural operations.
Excellent accessibility to regional townships and metropolitan centres, including Gingin (21* linear kilometres), Yanchep (40* linear kilometres), Muchea Livestock Centre (49* linear kilometres) & the Perth CBD (85* linear kilometres).
