This 101-acre block (41.71 Ha) offers an excellent opportunity to get into a larger holding with excellent development potential for tropical fruit, pawpaw or both. It has a 30 megalitre water licence and red volcanic soil that is so rich in minerals that some people say you can eat it with a spoon! Banana farmers should see this block if you are looking for expansion.
The property is fully fenced and pasture-improved and is currently used as a fattening block for cattle from the Cape before they go to market. It has a good set of working yards, with water at the yards and a laneway system in place. There has been recent clearing of approximately 15 acres of regrowth, which will soon add to the carrying capacity. Water is abundant, with 5000 litres of rainwater catchment, a bore and a water licence from the creek. The bore water is crystal clear.
On site is a four-bedroom relocatable accommodation block, with each having its own ensuite. The large machinery shed offers plenty of shade, and a portion has been walled off to provide the dining and cooking area. The accommodation is air-conditioned, and the shed is fully powered up. If you wanted to build your family home, the site gently rolls up a hill to neighbour the national park. The views from up here are expansive and offer distant, panoramic views of the South Johnstone Valley all the way up to the Palmerston Range. You would be afforded ultimate privacy.
This property has a capacity of somewhere around 70 breeders and benefits from consistent rainfall, quality soils and improved pastures.
