The key is good soil quality. This property has fantastic fertile creek flats with 95% of the block being cleared usable land with a very gentle slope. Absolutely perfect for growing grass for your horses or cattle or the perfect canvas to reinstate a cultivation paddock.
Encompassing 12.4 great usable acres of high-quality Lockyer Valley Creek flat soil, divided into four paddocks for ease of livestock management.
The permanent water supply comes from the bore. The quality is not brackish at all & crystal clear. I've tasted the mineral water and it is pure tasting.
For the horse enthusiasts the current owner has 5 horses and would never have to hand feed them.
