115 Goulburn Road, Mulloon NSW 2622

In the heart of the picturesque Mulloon Valley lies McLaughlin, a breathtaking 732 acre (296 hectare) property that captures the true essence of rural Australia. Set amid rolling pastures, tranquil creeks, and open skies, this remarkable holding brings together natural beauty, agricultural strength, and limitless opportunity, all within three hours of Sydney and just 45 minutes from Canberra Airport.

This gorgeous property sits alongside the historic Palerang Homestead, effectively creating one of the most significant holdings in the Queanbeyan Palerang LGA. We invite buyers to consider the purchase of McLaughlin and Palerang Homestead together or as separate properties.

Along its northern boundary, Reedy Creek winds through shaded pools and sandy banks where platypus have been sighted. The chorus of birdlife is a testament to the land's vitality and the surrounding ecosystem's health. Upstream, the Mulloon Institute's internationally recognised restoration works have rejuvenated the catchment, raising groundwater levels and restoring biodiversity. McLaughlin now benefits from stronger water security, healthier soils, and a more resilient environment.

For generations, McLaughlin has been a productive grazing property, supporting 80-100 breeding cows year-round across twelve well-fenced paddocks. A central laneway system allows efficient stock movement, while Reedy Creek and multiple dams provide permanent water. The pastures combine native Kangaroo Grass with improved rye, phalaris, and Microlaena, offering excellent nutrition and soil balance. Clean pastures, secure fencing, and a low weed burden ensure a ready-to-operate enterprise or an ideal foundation for expansion.

McLaughlin's story is also one of heritage and heart. The property bears the quiet marks of its colonial past, along the creek, hand-built stone aqueducts crafted by Chinese workers during the 1800s gold rush stand as enduring reminders of the region's history. These details add a timeless charm, giving McLaughlin a rare sense of character and depth.

With no existing homestead, McLaughlin remains one of the last blank canvases in the district, ready to be shaped by your vision. Several elevated building sites offer sweeping valley views, ideal for a grand country home, an eco-luxury retreat, or an off-grid sanctuary powered by solar energy and spring-fed water. The land's mix of open pasture, timbered ridges, and peaceful creek flats provides privacy, natural beauty, and space to create a deeply personal lifestyle, whether for weekend escapes, equestrian pursuits, or full-time country living.

Despite its serenity, McLaughlin is beautifully connected. Bungendore lies just 20 minutes away, Braidwood 30 minutes, and Canberra International Airport 45 minutes. Sydney is an easy three-hour drive, while both the South Coast beaches and Thredbo's alpine slopes are within reach.

For investors and long-term landholders, large, water-secure holdings of this scale close to major cities are increasingly rare. The ongoing regeneration of the Mulloon catchment continues to enhance land values, biodiversity, and productivity, making McLaughlin not only a lifestyle sanctuary but also a strong, future-proof investment.
