Situated just 30km north east of Crookwell and a comfortable 3 hour drive to Sydney 'Fullerton Station' is a landmark breeding and finishing enterprise which offers economy of scale together with potential production upside.

Water is a feature of 'Fullerton Station' with the junction of the Bolong River, Phils River, Reedy Creek, Myanga Creek, Willow Creek and Black Creek occurring on the property. In addition there are 21 dams and a 95ML irrigation license.

An area of approximately 20ha is established lucerne with a further 40ha considered suitable to establish lucerne along the creek flats. It is considered an area of approximately 560 ha would be suitable for cultivation with some of this area now sown to winter oats.

The quality of the soils together with the permanent water, reliable rainfall and working improvements underpin the production capacity of the enterprise.

The improvements are all in good condition and include the impressive large, double brick homestead (circa 1930s), manager's cottage and well maintained working infrastructure.

The property is scenically appealing with the gently undulating low rolling hills rising from the Bolong and Phil's Rivers to several higher ridges on the north and north eastern section of the property.

The offering of the highly regarded 'Fullerton Station', home of the Fullerton Hereford stud, represents an opportunity to secure a large scale breeding and grazing production agribusiness in the tightly held Fullerton/Laggan area of the Crookwell district.

The Crookwell district is situated just off the Sydney/Canberra corridor and has become a very popular destination for Sydney city based executives looking for a country rural retreat. This offers the possibility of potential further future subdivision and places 'Fullerton Station' in the land bank status.

This is the first time that 'Fullerton Station' has been offered since being purchased by Joe McCulloch in 1919. The homestead was commenced in 1930 by Jack Bushell and his wife Dorothey. [Di Reynolds father].

'Fullerton Station', originally known as 'Bolong' was first taken up by Rev. James Hassell in the early 1830 and at that time comprised of approximately 518 hectares (1,280 acres or two square miles).

Two blocks were cut off in the 1950s for soldier settlement. During the early 1960s another block was sold off to a local district family.

In 1966 Di & Raddon Reynolds settled on the property. 'Fullerton Station' has been utilised as a Hereford stud, beef, prime lamb and wool production enterprise since being taken over by the current owners.
