Movin’ to the Country – Mackay Hinterland

Bounded on two sides by Eungella National Park, and watered by a 1.7 km frontage to pristine St Helen’s Ck, this banana farm/virgin rain forest acreage has great potential for repurposing. Lovingly tended by the current environmental/conservation minded owners for some 30 years this little Piece of Paradise has organic certification and would suit a multitude of purposes, from on-going small scale farming, to the provision of accommodation for Whitsundays and local mountain biking development, to a rural hideaway for nature lovers. Located at the end of the road and tucked into an elbow of St Helen’s Ck as it exits Eungella National Park, the property includes a modern two-level hebel block 5 bedroom home. The farm, with deep cool swimming holes, has always been a favourite holiday destination of the owners’ extended families.

The property is conveniently accessible from Whitsunday Coast Airport (77 km) and Mackay regional airport (74 km). It is just 106 km from Airlie Beach, gateway to the Whitsundays. At nearby Finch Hatton (41 km) a 100 km mountain bike park is under construction.

The property boasts 24 ha of rich cultivatable land, with an irrigation licence for 12 ha, and existing diesel irrigation pump. Currently 9 ha are set up for irrigation. Adjacent to the house, set above the creek, is a well established orchard of citrus and exotic fruit trees. There is a separate grove of mango trees. The cultivation has been set up as a number of banana blocks. A banana packing shed (24x18 m) also accommodates 3 cool rooms and a spacious parking/workshop area. The shed is fitted with a 6000 gallon water tank. A separate adjacent shed provides garaging and storage.

The 20 year old two level hebel block home includes 5 large bedrooms, study, laundry, 3 bathrooms, and open plan kitchen and living areas. Downstairs, dug in against the earth bank, is a 1200 bottle capacity cellar. Solar panels and Tesla battery have recently been installed for a 10.36 kw system. Enjoy a swim before breakfast in the adjacent creek, a variety of fruit from the orchard, eggs from your chickens, and a wine on the generous verandah with your dinner.
