It is our absolute privilege to offer for sale this magnificent cattle breeding and fattening property at Glastonbury just 20 minutes from Gympie. It is rare to find a large holding that offers quality, productivity and security so close to a major centre in the Southeast. This is 836.14 acres of outstanding grazing land on 6 titles that has been in the one family for 70 years.
The quality is in the land. Part of a rich valley that runs South to North and is transected by reliable water sources on either side of the main road. From the exceptional loamy Blue Gum creek flats of chocolate soils, rising over rolling red hills and to the higher ridges of Softwood scrub and Ironbark, there is not an unusable piece of the property.
The property is conservatively stocked with approx. 220 cattle (including replacements), turning off high quality sale topping and prizewinning weaners. Grass hay is cut from the rich flats for use on the property. Water security has been pivotal in developing the property with an 8ha irrigation
license from Glastonbury Creek, which traverses the eastern and southern portions whilst water harvesting into two deepwater storages is done from both Glastonbury and Lemontree Creeks, the latter bisecting the home block Pasture improvement has been ongoing with Rhodes and Bluegrasses, Kikuyu around the former dairy, native forest grasses in the higher country and an
abundance of Wynn Cassia. There is plenty of scope for further improvement with a large network of 4" and 6" underground mains to hydrants in the haymaking areas and former cultivation paddocks.
Improvements include a 4 bedroom, brick home with northerly verandah and western patio, double car garage, large hay shed, 4 bay double entry machinery shed and the ex dairy building that has mostly steel cattle yards with undercover vet crush on Thunderbird scales. Fencing is good to excellent. Bitumen road to doctors and shopping is 15 minutes to Gympie. School bus pickup is from the front gate. Inspections are strongly recommended by appointment.
The Auction will be conducted at the Gympie Bowls Club 16 Bowlers Drive, Southside Gympie on Thursday 1st September at 11.00am.
