Ever dreamed of securing a riverfront rural paradise within an hour of both Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, but never really thought you could ever afford such a property… well with this one off opportunity, you have now just found it!
Why? Because beautiful Archer Park, a quality grazing property of 184 acres, is a Lease property through South East Queensland Water. As a result a property such as this would normally be just too expensive for many.but not Archer Park. Expect to pay half of what similar quality rural lifestyle properties sell for. That’s rightHALF!! But only for one buyer.
Woodford is just 15 kilometres away, Kilcoy even less. Sealed roads get you to the property entrance, but importantly this is a very peaceful property. The school bus stop is at the door. As a result of the close proximity to the major cites and nearby towns all important facilities (shopping, schools, medical including hospital and entertainment) are within easy reach.
As mentioned Archer Park is a riverfront property in fact has approximately 1.7 kilometres of prime frontage to the Stanley River, the Brisbane River’s main tributary. In addition Lake Somerset is so close you can literally stroll to it. The views here are very noteworthy striking Mount Archer hangs over the property to the south, the Stanley River and the ranges of Conondale Range National Park to the north.
We just love the sun rises and sun sets from the back deck and how the sun reflects off the water.
All of Archer Park’s 184 acres or 74.8 hectares is extensively cleared quality river flat grazing land. The fertile pastures, without irrigation, can accommodate 60 cows and their calves year round.
The property has excellent water. There are two licences to pump from the river. One is for stock and domestic use (1megalitre), the other a 17 hectare irrigation licence. Three tanks near the home are interconnected and carry nearly 100,000 litres of rainwater.
Improvements include well located timber cattle yards with crush facilities, a general purpose loading ramp, three phase power and a large shed (18m x 10.8m) which includes suitable height and doors for use as a hanger. Of special interest to some there is a 730 metre airstrip with taxi way.
The lovely Circa 1930 Queenslander has 3 bedrooms and two sleepouts. The polished timber flooring is impressive, as is the kitchen. Naturally the large north facing covered timber deck is probably the most used room in the home.
While Archer Park is obviously an ideal property to raise a family, or for anyone retiring from either out west or the city, it would also be sensational for anyone seeking an affordable weekender or 184 acres of quality grazing land with water.
This is an outstanding property, offering only one buyer the lifestyle you do not find anywhere or very often and because this is a Lease property. at half the price!! Importantly the lease period has recently been extended to 2046!
The owners, who have enjoyed Archer Park since 2005, are both crystal clear in their decision to sell right now. There is no doubt whatsoever that Sandra and I will be selling at auction. John Logan (1st July 2015).
