Rural Property For Sale NSW On Renowned Cattle Grazing Country

The ‘Yard Creek Aggregation’ presents a unique opportunity to acquire an unsurpassed large-scale grazing property and one of the largest landholdings located on the eastern fall of the Great Dividing Range in NSW.

Formally part of ‘Cooplacurripa Station’, the rural property for sale boasts a combined landholding of 6,982.4 hectares (17,253 acres), including ‘Number Two’ (3,655.8 hectares) and ‘Yard Creek’ (3,326.6 hectares).

This rural property for sale NSW comprises 6,982.4ha of cattle grazing country on the eastern fall of the Great Dividing Range

Currently utilised as a large-scale cattle breeding enterprise, the aggregation features productive soil types, transitioning from areas of basalt to trap soils and yellow earths as well as small areas of gravel breakout and surface rock.

Topography ranges from small areas of narrow river and creek flats through to grazing slopes and heavily timbered hills. Much of the open grazing areas are of moderate slope that would be suitable for direct-drilled pasture sowing.

This rural property for sale NSW boasts highly productive soils, moderately sloping grazing country and heavily timbered hills

Improved pastures across the aggregation comprise perennial native grasses such as Kangaroo, Red and Paspalum.  Kikuyu was introduced some time ago and has populated large areas and covers almost all open ridge tops. Sub-clover, Trefoil and White Clover are also evident.

Despite the challenge of topography and scale, the weed burden is low, with a coordinated program keeping them to manageable levels.

This rural property for sale NSW offers secure water from the Rowleys and Mummel rivers, creeks and gullies, and a vast number of dams

Water is a key feature of the property, underpinned by reliable rainfall averaging 1,068mm annually. Holding ‘Number Two’ benefits from around five kilometres of Rowleys River frontage, multiple creeks and wet gullies, approximately 29 dams, and a 23,500-litre header tank fed by a solar pump on dam.

Similarly, the ‘Yard Creek’ holding benefits from about 13 kilometres of Mummel River frontage, multiple creeks and wet gullies, approximately 40 dams, and two 7,500-litre poly tanks at the cattle yards.

This rural property for sale NSW is divided into approximately 12 paddocks by fencing comprising steel and timber posts and barb wire

‘Yard Creek’ also boasts extensive infrastructure improvements with the holding fenced into approximately 12 paddocks. Fencing is principally three- and four-barb wire cattle fences with steel and timber posts.

What’s more, Enfield Range Road is partly fenced on both sides between ‘Yard Creek’ and ‘Number Two’.

This rural property for sale NSW features cattle yards with an estimated working capacity of approximately 750 head

‘Yard Creek’ also includes cattle yards with an estimated working capacity of approximately 750 head, constructed of timber post and rail and equipped with earth floor race, cattle crush, loading ramp, calf cradle, undercover working area, and marking pens.

A 400m airstrip located directly off Enfield Range Road is used for aerial seed and fertiliser spreading.

This rural property for sale NSW has an estimated annual carrying capacity of about 1,200 cows under normal seasonal conditions

Under normal seasonal conditions the aggregation has an estimated annual carrying capacity of about 1,200 cows to produce weaner calves to be finished at other properties across the vendor’s portfolio, along with the retention of replacement heifers.

Currently, the aggregation is carrying 1,700 Brahman steers at 20+ months of age. Management estimate that with normal season conditions, appropriate pasture and fencing development that sustainable capacity could be lifted.
