“Applewood” is a 828ha (~2,045ac) farm located on the Dumaresq River 14kms South of Bonshaw, NSW. Set on Trap grazing soils with fertile alluvial flood plains, “Applewood” presents ample grazing land with cultivation opportunities.
Approximately 180 acres of arable land provide the option of surplus feed or finishing crops, with the current owners having successfully grown oats in the past. The remaining land has seen clearing for further grazing area with sensible retention of shade and shelter for stock. Numerous access tracks run throughout the undulating property, nearly all of which is 4wd accessible.
Water is a major asset to any farm, and is strong on “Applewood”. 1.3km of frontage to the Dumaresq River is capitalised on by an electric pump (mains power available at the river) suppling a 22,500L header tank for stock water, gravity-feeding multiple troughs across the property. Coupled with several dams and a large lagoon ensures reliable and versatile water security.
Fencing is mostly new/in good order, dividing the property into 25 paddocks. Storage needs are met with a two-bay shed machinery shed and a 4 bay open shed/carport with attached workshop area. Older shearing shed and storage building are also present, TLC required. The five-bedroom, one-bathroom weatherboard homestead provides comfortable living with a classic rural charm. A large flyscreen-enclosed veranda adds space for relaxation and entertaining. A 6.6kW solar system with a brand-new inverter also installed.
Situated just 43km from Texas, Queensland, and approximately 100km from both Tenterfield and Inverell, “Applewood” is well located near sale yards, and essential supplies. Less than an hour from the “Whyalla Beef” feedlot and only 110km from the “Bindaree Beef” abattoirs to the south is a nice bonus for beef producers. Good location and secure water with cultivation options is a must have for any farm. Whether you're looking to establish a standalone operation or expand your existing enterprise, this property provides the ideal foundation.
