Agents Comments:
Karingal has been the home of ‘Karingal Braford Stud’ for the past 28 years selling quality Braford Bulls and females at the Rockhampton Braford Sales each year. Karingal has only 2 owners in the past 100 years and is now only being sold now due to ill health. Very rarely does quality Flood Free Fitzroy River Irrigation country come up for sale this close to Rockhampton with the added advantage of multiple titles.
The current owners have purchased elsewhere to retire and have instructed me that Prior Offers will be considered as they are committed to selling under the hammer as it is time to go.
