I am pleased to present Mossman Farm. A pristine landscape proudly looked after. Quiet, peaceful and far removed from the hustle and bustle of industry and daily â Only 15 minutes from Miriam Vale.
It is 198 acres of your private hideaway, nestled at the mountains edge and adjoining National Park. There is no developed road to the National Park so no traffic goes past & amazing scenic views.
Being situated in the Gladstone region of Central Queensland, the property has excellent coastal rainfall. The house is besser block construction with expansive outdoor entertaining & fully air conditioned, one 24 x 20m large machinery shed with solar panels, one 6 x 9 shed enclosing a cold room, new cattle yards, with crush and loading ramp, and grain storage sheds.
The property also has a guest cabin with electricity, septic, and hot water.
The property is mostly cleared with pasture improvements of planted creeping blue, digitaria, and reclaimer Rhodes grasses.
The fencing is near new and well maintained with 4 fenced paddocks including the fenced house/shed paddock, sheep paddock, and two large cattle/grazing paddocks. Boasting good quality grazing country, the property currently runs 22 head. The Gracemere Sales report for 27 April, 2022 stated the properties Simmental x Heifers were highlighted for price and quality.
The house & shed has 2 x 22,700 litre tanks collecting from the shed. A 3000 litre tank filled by pressure pump from the bore feeds the exterior taps to the house, shed, gardens, visitor hut, and yards.
The bore has an excellent flow rate and the property has never run dry of water even with a high turnover of cattle and grazing. The water is supplied via two pressure pumps to the cattle yards and troughs, chicken and duck compound troughs, and sheep trough.
There are 3 dams all together â one large and 2 small. The headwaters of House Creek are in the National Park near the property, with the creek running along the boundary. Another creek and various gullies have head waters along the mountain area.
The property has the capacity to supply wonderful fruit and vegetable crops such as zucchini, eggplant, tomato, cauliflower, beans, carrots, lettuce, capsicu, chilli, rocket, shallot, cabbage, silver beet, spinach, beetroot, kohl rabi, okra, paw paw, passion fruit, choko, limes, mangoes and many more.
This property presents a rare opportunity for rural tranquillity, and a location seldom found so close to tourist destinations such as Agnes Water/1770, Boyne/Tannum, Turkey Beach, Bargara, Yeppoon and Gladstone â The gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and industrial hub of Queensland.
Miriam Vale has a well-appointed General Store, multiple cafes and specialty shops, Chemist, bank, bowls/golf/football/pony clubs, fantastic pub, multiple hotel/motels, parks & train station.
Boyne/Tannum has your larger necessities such as Doctor, large chemist, Woolworths, Coles and butcher that do delivery to the area.
Miriam Vale state school teaches up to year 10, while Tannum Sands State High School caters to year 12.
Miriam Vale is on the Bruce Highway; 464km North of Brisbane, 118km North of Bundaberg, 65km South of Gladstone, 178 km South of Rockhampton.
Renowned as a traditional cattle area, and supports timber, beef and dairy cattle. Tourism is an emerging industry within the shire and the town is a gateway to the tourist resorts of Agnes Water and the Town of 1770, which are 56 km to the East.
