This phenomenal farm for sale - located 20 kilometres south-west of Penguin on Tasmania’s north-west coast – boasts 174.2 hectares (430.4 acres) of gentle undulating land with highly desirable red basalt soil underfoot, making it ideal for large-scale cattle grazing and cropping.

An outstanding aggregation of six titles all adjoining each other surrounding a central management hub, the property has a successful history in potato production and beef cattle, winning countless awards over the years within the state.

With an impressive fertilizer history, secure water supply from five dams, above-average rainfall of 1,084mm per annum, a small water licence drawing from a tributary of the Blythe River, and hundreds of metres of irrigation still in place, the property is well-placed for a return to spud production.

Of the total area included in the sale, approximately 138 hectares (341.2 acres) is considered arable, 26.8 hectares (66.4 acres) is natural bush, and nine hectares (22.2 acres) is ready to harvest Eucalyptus Nitens timber (commonly known as Shining Gum or Silvertop). Of the arable area, the soils range from rich red basalt soil over a majority of the land, to grey loam sand over approximately six hectares in the north-east corner of the property.

Boasting well-maintained infrastructure – including fencing, shedding and yarding, the property is also well set up to support an expansion of cattle capacity. This blue-chip holding currently carries 150-200 head of pure-breed Black Angus cattle and has the potential to expand to at least 250 head. Somewhere between 150-200 head will be included in the sale.

For sale on a walk-in-walk-out basis, this high-calibre property also features an impressive homestead, manager’s residence, studio/farm office, large workshop, small equipment shed, four-bay machinery shed, potato shed, and a host of machinery.
