Positioned only 22 km northeast of Chinchilla and 85 km to Dalby, with frontage to the Chinchilla Wondai Road and located in the highly regarded, tightly held farming district of Canaga on the Western Downs.
Total Area: 455.4724 Hectares (1,125.5 acres) - Lots 1, 6, and 12 on SP 170535 Freehold - Western Downs Regional Council
Country: Predominantly heavy Brigalow/Belah scrub soils running to a small area of loamy Box, Wilga creek country at the front of the property. All the property has been cleared apart from shade lines and along the creek. All white on the vegetation map, except for the small area near the creek.
Pastures: The highly productive, well-established Leucaena pasture system of approximately 1,000 acres together with a great supporting mixture of improved grasses and legumes, e.g., Rhodes Grass, Green Panic, Digitaria, Blue grass, Bambatsi, Desmanthus, and a heavy body of natural winter burr medics.
Services: Single-phase power, school bus to all Chinchilla schools at the front gate, bitumen road frontage, all-weather gravel access to the house, sheds, and yards, twice-weekly mail service, and mobile phone service.
Home: The 3-bedroom, low-set timber home has a great northern outlook and is in close proximity to the main sheds and cattle yards. The open lounge and dining room with natural timber floors opens onto the front concreted patio. The kitchen features a large pantry, generous bench and cupboard space, along with an electric oven. The bedrooms are a good size with built-in cupboards in the main. The large, bright, and airy 3rd bedroom could be used as an extra living space if required. A split-system air conditioner and some ceiling fans provide heating and cooling for the home. The bathroom features a shower, vanity, and toilet. The big laundry has room for a spare freezer or fridge, plus it has a good-sized storage room adjacent.
Cattle yards: Good combination of solid steel panels and older timber yards with numerous forcing pens in a circular design leading to a curved safety forcing yard with an elevated handling walkway into a partly concreted race through to the loading ramp. It also incorporates a covered Vet crush and treatment area with a concreted floor, power, and water connected. The yards are in very good condition.
Fencing: Extremely well fenced into 38 Leucaena, 7 grass, and 2 dam paddocks, all with an extensive array of lane-way systems leading to the yards, making moving and mustering stock as smooth an operation as possible.
Water: Very securely watered by 2 bores, 3 dams, 1 natural lagoon and 2 km of frontage to Charley's Creek. The house bore was drilled in 2006 and is approximately 174m deep and is equipped with an electrical submersible pump with a timer, pumping approximately 9 litres per second (7,000 gal/hr) from 34 metres to a 22,000-gallon Pioneer tank and reticulating with a pressure pump throughout the property to the 11 troughs. The paddock bore was redrilled in 2017 being approximately 33m deep and equipped with a solar submersible pump delivering approximately 500 gal/ hr to a 5,000-gallon cup and saucer poly tank.
