70 Smith Road, Woolooga QLD 4570

40 kms West of Gympie, irrigation lic. from Wide Bay Creek, is this highly improved 106ha/265acre cattle property currently running 75 cows and 75 progeny to 9 months av. over 11 main paddocks of soft, cleared forest soil and loam flats. An ex-dairy with a 3 ha irrigation license, the owners have built numerous large dams and planted Rhodes; Pangola; Paspalum, Green and Gatton Panic, Wynn Cassia and other tropical pasture grasses. The owners have not irrigated since buying the property in 2007 and concentrate on turning off heavy weaners and stores to local saleyards in Gympie and Woolooga.
There is an excellent windmill equipped bore (28' deep) pumping to 2 x 5000 gal. tanks for gravity feed to troughs and gardens. The numerous large dams have recently been cleaned and take advantage of spring-fed gullies.
The stockyards are very sound with steel and timber rails, vet crush, loading ramp, shade trees, water and shed. A central laneway leads to the stockyards. A number of other steel sheds provide storage for vehicles, hay, machinery and tools. Owner operates the farm with 2WD ute and tractor. Gentle slopes.
The 3 brm VGC older timber home is surprisingly large and roomy with 2 large bedrooms and an enormous master double bedroom which could be developed into a bedroom & ensuite. The kitchen is airy and spacious with a side room for freezers/pantry and dining with a separate lounge room. There is a bath/shwr with separate toilet and good sized deck facing NE for comfort. The owners need to retire and their efforts and meticulous management of the property shows in the good fencing, clean paddocks and abundant fruit trees and vegetable gardens.
The few properties on Smith Road are long term owners and the farms nearby grow lucerne/forage and crops as well as livestock. Woolooga enjoys a school, corner store, hotel and sporting facilities as well a large livestock saleyard. 90 minutes to Noosa if you must go to the beach but this farm is a haven itself and will provide an income and or lifestyle for the next owner.
Asking $1,150,000 and an inspection will not disappoint.
