Agents Comments:
"Benarkin Macadamias has been more than a farm for the current owners for the last quarter of a century.
When they first discovered the untouched overgrown 121ha parcel of land, they recognised the potential in the property with its rich red volcanic soil types, high rainfall location and gently undulating country. They knew it would be ideal for their future endeavours of starting a macadamia orchard.
It has been a place that has provided an income for their family, a property they have seen grow since they planted the very first tree 25 years ago. It has been a place to escape the city and spend their weekends with friends and family.
It is an incredibly well cared for and maintained property. Whilst it is an excellent opportunity to secure an income producing orchard, it is also a property that would also suit a lifestyle buyer looking for a well diversified property in one of the most beautiful areas in South East Queensland.
The presentation of the farm is meticulous! So for those who may not be able to reside on site full time the owners currently employ two farm hand/caretakers who would be willing to stay on if required.
Now being offered to the market for the first time since its establishment, it is an opportunity for the new owner to secure a property with all the hard work complete and be able to continue running a successful farming enterprise with plenty of room to expand the orchard, diversify into grazing, live the country lifestyle and build a statement home."
