For those of you who are looking for a useable property to hobby farm, these pretty 160 acres (64.75ha) with a 3 brm home + office will certainly be of interest. Currently tenanted on a month-to-month basis and we will need 24 hours’ notice if you wish to look at the house.
Mains power is connected and the home has a feed-back to the grid solar system as well. Larger than it looks, the home is an old one and some renovations have been done. It is quite liveable but does need some TLC. Open plan kitchen, dining and lounge room, cooking is done on an electric cooktop and wall oven. There are 3 bedrooms with an office. The bathroom has a good-sized shower and incorporates the toilet. Along the side of the home is a carport. Total rainwater collection is approx. 13,000 gallons and hot water is solar.
The house yard is large and a great area for children to play. There is an open machinery shed from years gone by and a chook pen.
Ranging between approx. 42m & 58m above sea level, the block is fully fenced with the house yard fenced separately. There are two dams; one of these is huge and Sheep Station Creek also runs through the property which has semi-permanent waterholes. This is a lovely area.
The lay of the land is nice and is a blend of cleared areas and timbered areas. More vegetation could be cleared if you want more open country. One area has quite a few lovely old mango trees which are of the common rarity and some other citrus trees.
Mail is picked up at the post office in Rosedale and children can catch the school bus out front. Rates are approx. $1,260.00 per year. Coles deliver to the area and Telstra mobile reception is good.
Rosedale has a hotel, general store with fuel, hardware & post office and the pre-school to grade 12 state school. There is also a kindy.
Approx. distances: Rosedale 4km, Bundaberg 62 km, Agnes Water 67km, Gladstone 131km and a boat ramp on Baffle Creek 19km.

Well known for good fishing, crabbing and prawns, Baffle Creek is an undiscovered area and thus quiet and peaceful. Bitumen roads from north or south, most of our blocks are 40 acres or larger which helps ensure your privacy. Crocodile & box jellyfish free, there are 4 tidal waterways and beautiful unspoilt beaches. Add a sub-tropical climate to all this and what do you have – paradise
