A rare opportunity to secure 932 acres of prime grazing country has now become available on pristine Flinders Island. This property has been in the one family since it was first developed in the early 1960's and has been run as a very successful sheep and cattle enterprise. The property is divided up into 32 good sized paddocks, has a good pasture base of rye, strawberry clover and some fescue. Stock water is provided via multiple dams and concrete troughs. 2 x Solar pumps are currently set up to pump water to elevated header tanks which gravity feed into the system. This has been an ongoing project for the current owner and there are another 8 concrete troughs plus 4km's of 2" pipe being sold with the property for project completion. The farm has a very good, consistent annual fertiliser history and the average rainfall is approx 700mm. The improvements are all in good condition. There is a large 3 stand woolshed, large workshop with concrete floor and lockable storage, a large 3 bay machinery shed, hayshed and other sundry shedding. Livestock handling facilities are in good working order and include sheep yards, foot bath, cattle yards and undercover crush. Fencing has been well maintained and there are central laneways throughout the farm. The home has recently been re-clad, is a tidy 3 bedroom, 1 office, open plan kitchen/lounge/dining and boasts polished hardwood floors throughout. It has had a recent bathroom renovation and has been freshly painted in the main living space. A recent sunroom extension has been built in and enclosed with windows and takes full advantage of the easterly aspect looking out over the house yard and farmland. Gardens are low maintenance and have an added bonus of a bore that pumps approx 150 gallons per hour. Coralglen has a strong history of breeding and finishing prime grass fed sheep and cattle that are well sort after by both the processors and backgrounders. Livestock will be available at valuation and there is an extensive list of plant and machinery that can be negotiated on, first option to the successful purchaser. Flinders Island is approximately a 1 hour flight form Melbourne and half an hour from Launceston. With it's maritime climate, mild winters and mild summers, farmland here is very productive with the right inputs.
