Property Details for 6979 Dukes Hwy, Culburra
Last Listing description (November 2021)
Healthy pasture block with a mix of cropping and a substantial amount of clay spreading
As the name suggests Coonaburra gums is situated in between the two well regarded grazing and cropping districts of Culburra (8km) and Coonalpyn (8km). The property is a stand-alone mixed farm with good quality pastures and a consistent fertilizer history. It has a blend of soil types with some rising sandy loams producing veldt pastures which stretch down onto loamy lucerne flats, having had a continual renovation program over the years. The farm also has a blend of strong red brown loams over limestone which can be cropped or grazed.
The farm also consists of gently rolling pink gum studded paddocks which have, nearly in all parts had a healthy amount of clay applied. This has helped with moisture retention and helped establish some quality lucerne pastures over this country. For the most part the property has been fenced to soil type, which allows for the strong limestone country to be available for cropping.
Currently the property is serviced by secure mains water, this is remotely monitored giving comfort that any leaks can be noticed very quickly. An added benefit is that the good quality artesian bore water could be accessed underneath, with neighbouring properties either side of the farm having done so in recent times.
The property has been in the same family since the late 70's when purchased partially cleared and has consistently produced quality meat and wool over that time. Currently running between 1200 and 1300 ewes and over 400 acres under crop or renovation. A successful livestock carrying business has been run out of the property with shedding to compliment.
The large workshop/implement shed (15m x 18m) is quite capable of housing sizeable machinery. This is backed up by a longer and higher implement shed (14m x 28m). This can be used for more under-cover shelter for shearing, or potentially transformed into a larger shearing shed or hay storage. There is a small 2 stand shearing shed (11m x 14m) with yards and loading ramp connected. Multiple silos of different tonnages suitable for storing cleaned seed and allowing enough room to cater for supplementary feeding of livestock. The older pig sheds have been converted into storage for farm equipment.
The solid brick home built in the early 80's is a comfortable 4-bedroom family home in a pleasant Pink Gum setting with a separate sunken lounge area and office, it could also be easily used as a manager or overseers' residence. The township of Tintinara is less than 20 km away and boasts a healthy area school with community and sporting clubs thriving with local families.
With a combination of reliable rainfall (450 mm), mix of soil types and healthy pastures it makes 'Coonaburra Gums' a pleasure to bring to the market. The property is poised to take over in good health, having had a consistent fertilizer program. With a continuation of the current renovation program the property's carrying capacity could easily be increased to add value.
