LOCATED: 16 km southeast of Gympie (via bitumen road) in the Mothar Mountain area, approximately 40 minutes from Noosa and less than two hours to Brisbane.

RESIDENCE: Restored Queenslander centrally located on the property. There are four bedrooms, modern kitchen, fantastic outlook, and large outdoor entertaining area, with lush gardens. The underneath has been built in with bathroom, large office & laundry.

COUNTRY: Fertile frost-free scrub country running down to good brown loam soil ridges and flats. All paddocks have good shade areas for stock and water.

PASTURES: Highly improved pasture including Kikuyu, Rhodes, and Legumes etc.

IRRIGATION: 120 acres of irrigated pasture for winter production. This is divided into 12 paddocks. With 30 acres (2 paddocks) of solid set, the rest is irrigated with 75 acre & 120 acre travelling irrigators. Water is supplied for irrigation via one of three pumps. All main lines are underground. (Note irrigation pumps & irrigators are included in the sale)

WATER: There are seven very large dams for irrigation (approximately 250 m/l of water storage) as well as several smaller dams for stock water.

RAINFALL: 1177mm (47 inches) per annum average.

REMARKS: This property is situated in the Mothar Mountain area to the south east of Gympie. It boasts fabulous views over Gympie & the Mary Valley and it is becoming harder to find larger acreage properties on the east side of Gympie.

Properties with such large water storage for irrigation at pumping costs only are very rare (no paid licences). Would suit grazing, cattle stud, with some cropping or small cropping enterprise, but there would be many other agricultural uses for this quality property.
