505.41 Acres of irrigated pasture only forty minutes from Townsville that can be purchased as one parcel or vendors will consider dividing the three separate titles. The total package consists of areas of 140 ha, 29.54 ha and 33.57 ha which have a Sunwater allocation of 800 megalitres pumped by 2 x 10′ electric pump from the Haughton River which is fed from the unlimited supply from the Burdekin Dam.
There is also a ground water allocation of 600 megs which is pumped by 2 electric bore pumps on the property. All paddocks are set up in 4 metre bays and irrigation is fed through 2km of 12′ PVC underground poly pipe and discharged by gated outlets at various intervals at the head of the fields for flood irrigation all year round.
At present the farm is planted to Callide Rhodes grass but as the property was previously planted to Sugar Cane it can be replanted to Cane if a buyer wished to cash in on the current high world price of sugar.
All three lots have 5 barb boundary fencing and gates. The larger 140 ha lot has an air conditioned four bedroom Queenslander home, several sheds including a new 432 sq metre shed with concrete floor, 8 horse stables, cattle ramp, Pro-Chute cattle crush with scales and cattle yards and there is a 2′ pressure pump supplying water to the homestead gardens and troughs.
