The property is drought proofed with an abundant system of 26 dams plus access to an unlimited potable water supply from a rare underground aquifer traversing the property for 4km that has flow tested at circa 2 million litres per day from a depth of only 40 metres. Liquid gold lies beneath!

This immense land holding falls outside the prescribed water licence area (and, hence, is not subject to water resource management or licence fees) and beckons future development and sinking of further bores, thus harnessing these precious and immense water assets to capitalise on the huge potential for horticulture, irrigated agriculture, lot feeding or aquaculture.

Coupled with its seclusion, this property is ideally placed for a multitude of special biodiversity practices with further huge upside available from irrigating.
