This is 198 acres (80.22ha)(2 Titles) of improved, undulating country in the heart of the Mary Valley, 15 mins to Gympie. This property has been fully improved and is only being offered for sale due to the owners wanting to downsize prior to retiring. It is mostly flat to gently undulating country, rising to steeper warm country on the western side, almost all easily accessible by vehicle. The 16 paddocks have mostly split posts and 4-strand barb wire fencing in excellent condition. The numerous paddocks are each well-watered by 2 dams, 8 x 1000 litre troughs and 1 x 4000L concrete trough gravity fed from a turkey nest dam filled by irrigation main from a 3 phase, 15hp Helical Rotor 1200mm long pump on the permanent creek. With a 7 Ha irrigation Licence from the permanent creek feeding the 20′ deep large turkey nest, and gravity from there through 2″ mains to 16 hydrants covering most of the lower half of the farm allowing pasture irrigation or the growing of small crops or horticulture such as Macadamias.
This rich scrub and creek loam country is easily capable of carrying 80 breeders on the improved pastures. The pasture grasses are predominately Bisset Blue grass, Green Panic, Rhodes, Hamel, Setaria, Couch, Kikuyu and legumes including Glycine and Siratro.
The home is in excellent condition, recently renovated with 3 large bedrooms plus a sleepout. High ceilings, modern tinted aluminium windows, air conditioning to Bedroom 1 & 2, lounge and Dining/kitchen as well as fans keep this home cool in summer. There is a huge, 15m x 5.5m modern kitchen with massive walk-in pantry including the dining area with views of the farm. With 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets and upstairs laundry, the wet areas are modern and airy. The house yard is fully fenced for pets. Sit on either of the large decks, one on the east and one on the western side of the home and enjoy the views, the quiet or have a BBQ or party!
The outbuildings include a 6-car/truck lock-up steel machinery shed (18m x 12m) and a hay shed with attached single carport for the house. There is a set of steel and timber cattle yards with crush, loading ramp and drafting yards to handle up to 80 head and all your cattle work. There is also power and floodlights at the stockyards. An old but solid dairy shed adjacent is handy for storing material and a laneway system connects all paddocks to the stockyards and allows rotational grazing.
WATER? There is over 90,000 litres of rainwater for the house and almost unlimited amounts of creek water for gardens, troughs and irrigation. With an annual rainfall of about 1000mls p/year, you have a secure water supply.
This is a well presented and versatile property with a long history of high productivity only 15 minutes to Gympie or the Bruce Highway and an hour to the Sunshine Coast airport. Even the school bus is at the front gate!
