This premier 5800-acre property on the south-western edge of the Atherton Tablelands, approximately 20 minutes from Ravenshoe, combines a successful agricultural and grazing enterprise. Abundant water supports the 650 acres of irrigated cultivation under centre pivots with plenty of scope to expand. The water is sourced from the Herbert River, Blunder creek and bores with extensive storage capacity in the existing ring tank. The stylish homestead constructed of cream brick, surrounded by wide verandahs, overlooks the property; other improvements include two other modern residences, workers quarters and ample shedding. Two fully mechanised grain silos with drying and loading facilities contribute to the easy management of this potentially very profitable agricultural concern.
