Stake your claim on the ultimate Upper Clarence riverfront, and some of the best alluvial grazing and growing country in the district, by securing "Apple Tree Flat" at Winegrove.
Consisting of 313 acres of freehold country and a 203 acre crown lease, the property has an approximate 230 breeder carrying capacity in addition to producing fodder crops.
Large sections of arable land make this property an absolute powerhouse for feed production and the results show in the bulk of forage produced here by the vendors over the years.
Four kilometres of Clarence River frontage is the sparkling highlight of the block.
World-renowned canoeing and kayaking as well as excellent bass and cod fishing can be enjoyed right along the length of river just downstream of Lilydale bridge. Deep pools and high banks funnel into pebble-bottomed rapids as the mighty river pushes its way toward Grafton and then the Yamba coastline beyond.This unstoppable supply of fresh water and the awesome power of the floods in the area are well known.
Where the majority of lease country will be affected by flood water, the freehold portion boasts beautiful flood-free flats where the cattle can be walked to safety until the swollen river retreats to its normal path.
Good internal fencing allows you to muster the herd back onto safe ground and keep them free from harm, and also allows paddocks to be locked up and sown down to crop.
A 25 megalitre irrigation license from the Clarence River ensures absolute drought proofing of the block and maximises the yield for planted forage crops.
Two homes are situated on the property which was aggregated by the current vendors in 2018.The first is a timber-framed farmhouse consisting of two bedrooms and one bathroom.
The second is a brick house of three bedrooms and one bathroom but has a covenant over the occupancy in favour of the previous owner (please speak to our agents for further details).
A 48m machinery shed, lock-up colourbond sheds, old barn and large set of steel and timber cattle yards complete the infrastructure.
The stock water is supplied by a gravity feed system including a header tank on a stand which services the numerous concrete troughs around the property.
This is a landmark property of the Clarence Valley and interest is expected to be strong. Please do not delay in registering your interest to purchase this first-class rural holding.
Expressions of Interest close at 2pm on Thursday, December 5th (AEST).
