We are very excited to share with you a property with almost a 100 acre claim to this rare kind of beauty.
If you have been looking for a small farm with BIG POTENTIAL, then we reckon we have got it covered right here!
This property is a fantastic dual occupancy proposition with 2 homes providing larger farming families an opportunity to call either address home, while retaining a unique level of independence. A perfect place for intergenerational farming families to grow, thrive and prosper without being in each other's pockets.
In today's rural market place you will find it hard to surpass the value and unique nature of this offering!
Water security is the big feature in this farm, with 3 dams (*one spring fed), a bore producing additional irrigation with good pumping capacity and 170, 000 ltr rainwater catchment shared between the 2 homes.
The farm was utlised for cropping in another life, however today it's appeal and potential has diversified, remaining true to its heritage, with an established orchard on property showcasing approximately 200 fruit and bush tucker plant varieties featured, with access to a large 26m x 6m greenhouse to assist with replanting & regeneration season by season.
This property is every bit proud of its pedigree; boasting some of the richest, red volcanic and fertile soils around the region. When harvest time approaches, the near-by packing shed is lying dormant. Contained within this 18 m x 6.5 m lockable steel shed is available connection to 3 phase power to support a small cold room.
In addition to this, there is a 13 m x 9 m tractor/machinery shed, plus a 5 m x 4 m powered shed nearer the largest of the dams; also adding weight to the great value that is contained within this opportunity.
It's not just a cropping property either; cattle, sheep and horses find themselves right at home here, with 5 paddocks available to make life so easy.
Big families have got much to be excited about in this place!!
The main homestead has been tastefully renovated, showcasing modern country living! Open plan living, a kitchen with plenty of space plus walk in pantry and 3 bedrooms with maximum room to relax, retreat and revive. What a difference a professional renovation makes in this double brick, steel framed and insulated proposition; full of warmth, character and style!
The other residence has 2 rooms, a combined bathroom/laundry, a kitchenette and an interconnecting entertainment deck, with awesome views.
This place is full of surprises, where nature takes you to new dimensions, as Ration Creek and gullies traverse this property, providing safe haven to a variety of friendly cohabitants!
It's a delicate balance between farming that seeks to grow a healthy bottom line, while cherishing the environment. This farm is selectively cleared with large swathes of land still loaded with millable timber.
Owners have a STILL onsite allowing native and domestic species to be reduced and decanted, providing a unique profit center in the holistic world for creams and essential oils!
This property screams 'AirBnB'; the owners currently have tourism plans for this place which can be shared with the new owners, should that be the direction a purchase of this place would like to take you in?
So, if this farming proposition is soooo good, why are the current owners selling?
They are missing family and friends and seek to relocate for that purpose only!
Now closer to Gympie and the northern Sunshine Coast than ever before, thanks to newly minted by-bass roadworks project on the Bruce Highway; quality Bauple farmlets such as this address are in demand and sought after.
