The contract has crashed on this tightly-held and highly sought-after Morinish district property, Leila Park. The owners have already moved and need to sell, creating a wonderful opportunity to secure this ideal breeder block so close to Australia's beef capital, Rockhampton.
Leila Park is 1,839 acres of freehold, grazing country conveniently located 55km* to the City of Rockhampton. All of the hard work has been done here. In the last 18 months approximately 1/3 of the property has either been pulled, stick raked or a combination of both. CQLX ,Gracemere saleyards, offering weekly cattle sales are 65km* away and Rockhampton has two abattoirs.
The flat, fertile valley country, gives rise to undulating foothills which climb and merge into the mountain ridges. The picturesque property would present a stunning backdrop to build your home.
The convenient location of this property must not be overlooked. If you are looking to move closer to town and downsize but still keep a base herd this place is ideal! Ready to take it up a notch and increase your numbers, look no further! Leila Park ticks a lot of boxes!
