Property Description

Situated just 29km from the township of Kyogle, is this magnificent two hundred and fifty acre Ghinni Ghi property. The property has the five most important attributes for any property: 1. Location 2. Water 3. Soil 4. Topography 5. Productivity 1. Location - Located approximately three hours from Brisbane, two hours drive to the Gold Coast International Airport, just over one hour from the golden sands of the North Coast beaches, forty five minutes to the Northern Rivers Regional Sale yards, twenty minutes from Kyogle and only five minutes from the picturesque Toonumbar Dam. The property consists of 100.38 ha, two houses and excellent infrastructure. 2. Water - The property has approximately 1.5km of Iron Pot Creek frontage, mainly on the southern boundary. Attached to the property is a large 219megalitre irrigation licence. There are two pumping locations, one close to the main house and the second location towards the south eastern corner of the property. Underground mains allow irrigation of cropping areas. Additionally livestock watering points are located in every paddock, gravity fed from header tanks. Along with the abundance of stock water and irrigation access, the Ghinni Ghi climate is warm and temperate. The average annual temperature in Ghinni Ghi is 19.3 °C with rainfall averages 1100mm per annum. 3. Soil - The Ghinni Ghi area sits at the base of the Richmond Range, with the actual property containing a mixture of chocolate basalt soil and alluvial creek flats. The soil structure is excellent and the soil will stand up to frequent cultivation. Fertility is inherently good with fodder crops predominantly grown on the creek flats. 4. Topography - The property is separated nearly exactly in half by Brays Road. There are numerous gateways off Brays Road which give access to the entire property. The property can be driven over easily with a slight uphill undulation towards the northern boundary. In total there are over 12 individual paddocks with the majority of fencing in good to fair condition. 5. Productivity - The property was previously run as a dairy farm up until the 1960's. A piggery and cattle operation has then followed with cropping and fodder production also carried out. The property will conservatively carry 100 breeders. The versatility of the property allows new owners to undertake further cropping or concentrate on increasing cattle production. The two homes provide numerous possibilities for accommodation including owner occupied housing, rental properties, farm stays and much more. Excellent shedding allows for fodder storage and/or machinery storage which includes: • 37m x 13m open pay steel shed • 35m x 13m piggery complex • 17m x 10m 'Church' shed with attached lean too. • Dairy bales in fair condition There is also a set of steel cattle yards with crush and head bail. The small workers cottage home (No.71) is currently rented by a long term tenant. The home has two bedrooms and a small study area and is air-conditioned. Fully fenced with a carport area the home is in need of some TLC but provides a handy resource and income. The main house (No.83) is a larger house with two bedrooms and a large sleepout area. There is a combined kitchen and dining area, separate lounge room and a sunroom at the rear. A large carport and BBQ area compliment the country home. This property is a quality property in one of the best areas within the Kyogle District.
