Move to the Coast Without Giving Up Farming
130 hectares on Pappinbarra River with 16ML irrigation licence, 1.5km permanent river frontage, 2,039mm average rainfall, and full working infrastructure. The land, water security, and established operation are what make this property stand out. The 6-bedroom house with dual living layout adds flexibility for however you want to use the property - whether that's extended family, income generation, or simply having space.
The Land:
130.2 hectares across 8 paddocks with quality improved pasture (kikuyu, clover, setaria), with some areas still forested. Proven carrying capacity with a current herd of 50 breeders with calves at foot. Well-suited for continuing cattle breeding, establishing a stud operation, or mixed farming.
Water security genuinely solved: 16ML irrigation licence, 1.5km permanent Pappinbarra River frontage with multiple access points and swimming holes, 5 dams, troughs in paddocks, 135,000L household storage, and 2,039mm average annual rainfall. If you're from somewhere in NSW where 500mm is a good year, that rainfall number speaks for itself.
Infrastructure ready to work: steel cattle yards with covered crush, multiple machinery sheds, three-phase power throughout, solar systems, established fencing, and sealed road access. Everything you need to run a serious livestock operation from day one.
Location & Climate:
Mid North Coast location delivers coastal climate benefits with reliable rainfall. The 2,039mm average means pasture productivity you can count on, not hope for.
45 minutes to Port Macquarie (beaches, airport with direct Sydney flights), 20 minutes to Wauchope (rural supplies, vet services, medical centres, shopping), 10 minutes to Beechwood (café, post office, award-winning pub). Regional services including hospital, specialists, and major retail are all within 45 minutes. School bus route passes the property, Beechwood Primary 10 minutes away.
Whether you're relocating to be closer to family, wanting a coastal lifestyle while still farming, or downsizing from a larger operation: you can work stock in the morning and be at the beach by afternoon. All the things you need are within 45 minutes.
Income Options:
Currently operating with a herd of breeders plus established HipCamp farm camping business with documented bookings and excellent five-star reviews. The property is well-suited for a stud or breeding operation if that's your direction. Continue the agritourism income, focus purely on livestock, run agistment, or pursue multiple income streams. The infrastructure and scale support whatever approach you choose.
The House & Flexibility:
6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms with dual living layout. Ground floor is fully self-contained (2 bed, bath, kitchen, living) with recently renovated living areas and bedrooms. Upper level has 3 double bedrooms, multiple living areas, kitchen with river views, and master suite with walk-in wardrobes and private balcony.
This layout offers genuine flexibility: extended family living with privacy for both households, older couples may prefer the convenience of single-level living downstairs, teenagers or adult children wanting independence, visiting family accommodation, or multiple income options through rental or holiday letting of one level while living in the other. You could also choose to rent out or AirBnB the entire house if you're primarily interested in the land for livestock operations.
The house is well-maintained and functional. The real value here is the land, water security, and infrastructure. The house gives you options for how you use the property.
