LOCATION PROFILE: Maleny Valley Station is situated in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, just over an hour’s drive from Brisbane International Airport, and close to some of the best beaches (including Noosa) in Australia. The property is equidistant between Maleny and Kenilworth and therefore only 17km along an upgraded double land bitumen road to either regional centre. Local supplies are obtained from the quaint village of Conondale just 2km up the road. Maleny Valley Station is regarded as the jewel in the crown of regional properties. Maleny Valley Station adjoins the 49,000ha Conondale National Park which is comprised of stunning waterfalls and palm filled valleys. This hidden treasure offers a truly idealistic lifestyle for both man and beast.
PROPERTY HISTORY: The original settlers of the Valley were the Grigor family who arrived from Scotland in 1840. They fondly named their new home “Elgin” from whence they came. The property is now known as “Maleny Valley Station”. The lush pastures and permanent water moving through the gently undulating topography has been at the heart of their outstanding success in primary production. Over the decades the property has operated three commercial dairies and carried up to 1,500 head of poll Hereford beef cattle on a range of improved pastures under irrigation. It should be noted that Maleny Valley Station is located in the region west of Maleny that has been identified as one of two regions in South East Queensland most likely to absorb the continuing high population growth rate. It therefore should be seriously considered as a significant land banking opportunity for astute investors.
