Comprising a total land area of 1,509.37 hectares (3,728.14 acres), 'Border Park' accounts for 1,416.49 hectares (3,498.73 acres) and includes a significant 630ML storage dam covering approximately 21 hectares (52 acres). Fully equipped for irrigation, the dam supplies water to both 'Border Park' and the adjoining 'Brookdale', which encompasses 92.88 hectares (229.41 acres), the majority of which is highly productive cropped land.

'Border Park' comprises good open flats and gently undulating country rising to a steep, timbered hill, with soils ranging from loamy fine blue granite to coarser granite and areas of traprock. Water is well secured via a main storage dam, Macnamara Swamp Creek, and 19 additional dams strategically located across 14 paddocks, 10 holding paddocks and laneways.

Historically operated as a sheep and cattle enterprise, Border Park was renowned for producing fine-wool Merinos that regularly topped the Brisbane wool sales. The property is currently run as a cattle operation. The vendor advises that it previously carried a self-replacing flock of 2,000 fine-wool Merinos in conjunction with 100 cows and calves and, with further improvement, could do so again. At present, a carrying capacity of approximately 250 breeders is considered a realistic benchmark.

'Brookdale' is a highly productive, irrigated cropping property that is currently leased until 30 June 2030 and returning $326,413.22 including GST per annum with an annual CPI increase. A drip-fed irrigation system is supplied by the Border Park dam and pumped into holding ponds on Brookdale. The property is further enhanced by Glen Lyon Creek along the western boundary and Tarban Creek traversing the south-eastern corner.

Opportunities of this calibre-offering scale, diversity, and productivity in such a strategic, well-connected location-are rarely available. The vendor's decision to sell at auction further enhances the appeal.
