Located approximately 55km northeast of Jundah, this cattle station for sale in “Swanvale” in central Queensland boasts 160,000 acres on land which is floodplain through to hills.
This big block of land and property could possibly run 1000-1500 heads of cattle, be it breeders or the equivalent in steers or wieners etc, as well as up to 5,000 sheep. From the ad posted on popular classifieds site Gumtree, the owners currently run 600 breeders progeny and 2000 sheep. Their turnover comes from the sale of wiener steers and wool. They also sell off the wiener wethers and keep all female stock to increase numbers, selling them off when they are a bit too old however at the moment they are all young stock. They would be happy to sell the stock as well, if the buyer was interested. They are very good Brahman and Brahman cross Santa Breeders with Droughtmaster Bulls over them. The 2000 ewes are ready for shearing in September.
The owners sometimes hire a ultralight or helicopter as the property is so big! The sheep are sheared once a year while the cattle are mustered and branded twice a year.
The homestead is cosy and features two bedrooms plus a large kitchen. The property is well maintained with all dams and fences in good condition. Other highlights of this property includes a worker’s quarters, a large work shed, a three stand (electric) shearing shed, 2 sets of cattle yards, 18 dams, 3 bores with solar equipment.
Selling for $3.2 million, the price works out at $20/acre of land. [gumtree]
