Just 10 minutes from Crows Nest in the heart of the Plainby district, this well cared for farm represents a productive grazing and/or hay making operation, coupled with a truly amazing 'easy living' lifestyle opportunity. Situated in the high country in one of the region's most well-renowned farming districts, 'The Falls' will not disappoint! From the sweeping rural views off the north facing verandah of the home to the extensive 360° views from almost every part of the property, you'll be happy to head to the paddock to check those cows or hop on the tractor each day.
The 4 bed, 2 bath home, featuring verandahs on 3 sides is extremely well cared for and set among lovely gardens within a fully fenced yard. Large open plan living areas include the kitchen/dining area, a separate lounge, and a family room with direct access to a generous covered outdoor living space. Overlooking landscaped gardens and perfect for entertaining, this space is complete with a cold room and tucked around the corner is an adjoining fly proof 'butcher shop' featuring stainless steel benches & sink with plumbed hot & cold water...very handy for home kills.
Cattle handling has been made easy with a laneway system and renovated steel & timber cattle yards. Some paddocks are ringlocked for sheep, and a set of sheep yards with handling facilities also exists. Around 50 acres of existing cultivation, ideal for an oats crop or other seasonal forage crops or simply prime to sow to pastures with around the same acreage of already established Improved Pastures such as Rhodes and Gatton Panic. Other paddocks with Kikuyu and native grasses while all paddocks have an abundance of Clover in season. The current owner has been running 30 ewes & lambs plus 30 cows & calves with the DCE of around 60 - 70 head.
Water quality and quantity is well and truly safe with the bore (bore log available upon request) pumping to a 5,000 gal tank at the house, supplying troughs around the cattle & sheep yards and garden water around the house yard. It is also connected to another 5,000 gallon header tank located centrally on the property, which reticulates water to troughs in the laneway. There are also two dams. Two spare 5,000 gal tanks of rainwater at the sheds are sometimes used for gardens or spraying of weeds.
