243 Greenhill Road

Green Hill QLD 4865

This 2nd generation family sugar cane farm has just come to market. It's not often an opportunity comes up to secure such a magnificent piece of farm land. This property is irrigated with over a kilometre of 150mm rubber ring PVC underground have 8 outlets. Water from the Mulgrave aquifer is delivered by a six stage turbine pump driven with a Perkins 4-236 diesel engine. The bore is registered and metered for 206 mega litres per annum and the owner states the allocation of water has never been exceeded. Included is a narrow gauge railway line with 3 bin delivery points terminating at the Mulgrave mill.

All this would allow a new owner to consider other crops that grow well in the tropical north such as macadamia nuts , peanuts, bananas, lychees, mangoes, jack fruit, durian and sweet potatoes etc. The position of 243 Greenhill has an easterly aspect clear of mountains maximising sunlight conditions that promotes good growth rates. The soil is red volcanic overlaying a massive Basalt area. Bedminster has been applied between 2015-2018 at approximately 100 tons per ha making the soil very fertile.

The house and farm shed have 3 phase underground power coupled with standby generator. Cairns Regional Council runs garbage collection into this area weekly. Close to Cairns but far enough away to be fully rural, the drive time into Cairns is approximately 20 minutes to half an hour.
