3038 Proston Boondooma Road Brigooda QLD 4613

Within the picturesque South Burnett region lies a hidden gem - the sprawling grazing country at 3038 Proston Boondooma Road, Brigooda/Proston. This family-owned property has been in the family since 1957, situated a mere 20 kilometres from Proston, beckons to the discerning buyer, offering a canvas upon which to cultivate a first-class grazing operation.
Spanning 497.94 hectares (1230.43 acres), this versatile land has previously supported a mixed farming enterprise encompassing both livestock and cultivation, with a current focus on cattle husbandry. Among its notable features is a traditional timber farmhouse, boasting three bedrooms, a kitchen, dining area, and sleepout - awaiting the transformative touch of new owners to tailor it to their preferences.
Complementing the homestead are essential infrastructure elements essential for efficient operations, including a hay and machinery shed, loading ramp, and two sets of cattle yards - one permanent with a dip and the other portable. The property, presently partitioned into four paddocks, is enclosed by boundary fences in fair condition, offering a manageable layout for various husbandry practices.
Rich in natural resources, the land boasts approximately 400 acres of fertile red soil ex-cultivation, adorned with stands of Iron Bark intermingled with burgeoning young timber, where vast expanses have been thoughtfully stick-raked to enhance usability. Embracing sustainability, the property features two creek frontages - Lawson Broad Creek and Sherriff Creek - along with four dams and a spring-fed waterhole, ensuring ample water supply for livestock and agricultural endeavours.
Lush pastures, comprising both native species and improved varieties such as Rhodes, Green Panic, and Wyn Cassia, adorn the landscape, supporting a carrying capacity of 1:10, subject to seasonal fluctuations. Water management is facilitated through creek-fed pumping to a holding tank, harnessing the region's annual rainfall of approximately 460mm, which predominantly occurs during the summer months in its sub-tropical climate.
The topography of the area varies from gently undulating terrain on lateritised granite wash to flat to gently undulating terrain on granite wash, with soils predominantly consisting of krasnozems and soloths, sustaining diverse vegetation ranging from "softwood scrub" closed scrubs to narrow-leaved ironbark open forests.
In addition to its agricultural allure, the property benefits from its proximity to essential amenities and vibrant communities. Nearby Proston offers educational facilities, shopping options, and recreational opportunities at Boondooma Dam for camping, fishing, and water skiing, while the bustling hub of Kingaroy, just over an hour away, provides comprehensive services including both private state schools, bran new 97million dollar hospital and a new 7 story heath care facility under construction including a private hospital.
