257-343 Caulleys Road Paterson QLD 4570

Set along the fertile banks of the Mary River, "GUNDAROO" represents one of the most significant irrigation holdings to come to market in recent years.

Spanning 840 acres (340.35ha) across five titles with 2 homes, this is a rare opportunity to secure a blue-chip rural asset defined by scale, water security and exceptional productivity, all supported by substantial infrastructure and multiple income streams.

This expansive holding is characterised by its high quality creek and river flats underpinned by extremely fertile, deep, rich alluvial soils - currently utilised for both sugarcane and cattle production, offering a diverse and reliable income stream. Approximately 300 acres (121.3 hectares) are planted under cane, with predominant varieties 240 and 208, with the current crop fully fertilised and ready to provide an immediate income this harvest.

What truly sets this property apart-and places it in a class of its own-is the water and irrigation infrastructure. With two water allocations totalling an impressive 440 megalitres, the property enjoys secure, permanent access to over 3km of direct Mary River frontage. A submersible 75kw pump with booster pump distributes water through more than 4km's of 6-8" underground mainlines to two poly lined centre pivots, one of which is towable to further expand irrigation reach. A 60hp diesel pump services a 400m hard hose irrigator from the dam, ensuring the remaining cane areas are fully supported. In addition, a secondary submersible pump supplies water directly from the river to a header tank at the cattle yards, gravity feeding troughs and providing domestic and garden water to the homestead.

The grazing component is equally impressive, with the balance of the property fully fenced into five paddocks of improved pastures including Rhodes and Blue grass supporting approximately 120 breeders plus progeny. Slogerty's Creek meanders through the rear paddocks, providing an additional water source and enhancing the productivity of the grazing. Country, that consistently performs and delivers. Well-designed steel cattle yards, complete with an undercover vet crush, holding yard and loading ramp, make cattle work a breeze, complemented by two large sheds nearby suitable for hay storage, machinery and equipment.

The main residence is a beautifully appointed 405m² homestead which blends comfort with rural elegance. Featuring high ceilings and blackbutt timber floors throughout, the home centres around an air-conditioned kitchen and family room with fireplace, opening onto a rear patio that overlooks the 8x6m in-ground pool, capturing magnificent sunset views. The country-style kitchen includes stone benchtops, a generous island bench, ample storage and a premium "Belling" five-burner gas stove. Additional living spaces include a formal dining or sitting room and a separate rumpus/media room. Four large bedrooms plus an office (or fifth bedroom), all enjoying scenic outlooks. The master suite includes a walk-in robe and ensuite with shower, toilet and a private bathtub overlooking the property, while a guest bedroom also features its own ensuite. The remaining bedrooms are serviced by a well-appointed family bathroom. There is a four-bay lockable shed to accommodate family car parking and three 5,000-gallon rainwater tanks servicing the home.

A second quality residence, located approximately 1km away further enhances the property's versatility and income. Currently tenanted, it features full-length front and rear verandas with stunning river views, a central U-shaped kitchen adjoining the main living area, a separate family room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A single garage adjoins the home, while a three-bay lockable shed, high-clearance four-bay shed and former dairy infrastructure provide extensive additional storage.

The charming Railway Cottage offers a third dwelling option, previously utilised as part of the Gundaroo Farm stay Airbnb. This self-contained one-bedroom cottage, complete with its own rainwater tank, bathroom and basic kitchen, provides ideal guest accommodation or a private retreat.

Perfectly suited to multi-generational living or joint family investment, the property allows for shared operation while maintaining privacy and independence. It also delivers an enviable lifestyle, with abundant space for outdoor pursuits including camping, swimming, fishing along the river and horse riding.

Conveniently located, the property is just 20 minutes from Gunalda, providing access to the Bruce Highway, a local general store, pub and primary school, and approximately 40 minutes to the Gympie CBD with its full range of services and secondary schooling.

This is a holding of genuine distinction-an irreplaceable combination of scale, fertile river flats, premium infrastructure and, most notably, exceptional water security. Properties of this calibre, particularly with such extensive and well-developed irrigation systems, are exceedingly rare.

A property that will thrive for generations to come and one that demands serious attention from both investors and owner-operators alike.
