Nestled in the hills of Georgica, set on rich fertile land, this 10.04 ha (24.78 acres) farm offers a great blend of both lifestyle and income with room to expand.
In just 3 years, the current owners have doubled the income from this property and ensured that the infrastructure is set for further crop expansion.
The main focus is the custard apple orchard (344 KJPs under bird netting & under irrigation). Farm income has expanded into honey production (around 50 bee hives), turmeric (500), ginger (200) and 280 Guatemala red dragon fruit on trellis, all of which is under irrigation. 100 native trees have also been planted to encourage wildlife and create a "Koala Corridor".
Figures for the last 5 years are available to prospective buyers along with an inventory of machinery and equipment for the farm.
The main house consists of 3 bedrooms, all with timber floors. An open plan kitchen (gas stove and range hood) with timber cupboards. The open living area features exposed rake ceilings and access to a covered entertainment area overlooking the farm. The bathroom offers a shower cubicle, vanity and a separate toilet whilst the laundry is external under a verandah. The main house is currently tenanted.
A packing shed with a concrete floor and power connected offers great storage and includes a fully working cool room and workshop space. There is an open covered drive through area for the machinery and farm implements.
Another shed, which is 2 storey, offers a double lock up garage, along with a renovated bathroom and a processing station for the honey products. Upstairs is a large open area with a balcony; it offers a comfortable accommodation space for workers or manager’s quarters. The shed includes a large open bay area in which vehicles or machinery can easily be stored. 2 new water tanks have been added giving the property a total of 5 tanks and includes a spring fed dam for irrigation.
Located within 30 kms to Lismore and Nimbin and just 1 hours’ drive from Ballina-Byron Gateway Airport.
