Located only minutes from Gatton (pop: 8,000), this horse and cattle enterprise offers many opportunities. At present it has dual occupancy, with the main house and unit. As it is +100 acres, there is a possibility of building another house, with shire approval.
Recently, the property was a well-known riding school. This horse and cattle enterprise comes with a riding arena, round yard, stables, a bunk house and riding trails. There are 4 dams, cattle yards, an American barn, an enormous shed, the farmhouse, and 5 stables. Illness has caused the closure of the business.
Extra bonus to the buyer - the 4x4, tractor (40 hp), Mazda 4x4 ute, pumps, tools and all equestrian equipment come with the property.

The Shed
The shed is 18 x 12 m and has a mezzanine level. There are 2 large access doors. This is a huge storage area, a valuable farm asset for machine and vehicle storage. Its possibilities of uses are enormous.
The Farm
There are 4 dams which could be useful as sources for irrigating crops. The cattle yards are fully functional, with a ramp and crush. For the horses, there are 5 paddocks near the house. The 3 largest paddocks are at the back of the property, with knee-high grass, when recently viewed. The fencing and gates are in good repair. The previous owner had a racehorse training track.
Whatever mixed farming or horse and cattle enterprise you wish to pursue, an astute buyer will be able to see the many prospects this valuable land offers.
