Forth River Flats, 63 Turners Beach Road, Turners Beach TAS 7315

Elders Rural Real Estate is pleased to present Forth River Flats to the market, for sale by Expression of Interest closing 5:00 pm Thursday 17 December 2026.

These free-draining river flats on the Forth River, between Ulverstone and Devonport, have a proven record of intensive vegetable production, including carrots, spinach, baby leaf and onions. The property covers 105.41 hectares (260 acres) across four freehold titles in one of Tasmania’s most productive horticultural districts.

Irrigation that does the work
Around 78 hectares are under soft-droplet solid set irrigation, fed by an underground mainline network. A further 12.6 hectares of pivot area sits alongside, and central laneways run throughout for easy access. Significant capital has gone into drainage and layout. Infrastructure like this takes years to build and is rarely offered to the open market.

Water from two sources
195.75 ML of water is included. That’s 135 ML from Tasmanian Irrigation’s Kindred North Motton Irrigation Scheme at 95% reliability, plus a 60.75 ML winter-take licence supported by 62 ML of on-farm storage. Rainfall averages around 900 mm.

Location that matters
The property has ready access to the Bass Highway and is around 15 minutes from the Port of Devonport and the Spirit of Tasmania. The region’s vegetable packers and processors are close by, with freight, labour and services all within easy reach.

Flexible for any buyer
An established vegetable grower currently occupies the property. Investors have the opportunity to negotiate a new lease. Owner-operators can take possession by arrangement, subject to the occupier’s harvest rights.
