This rural property for sale Tamworth region is located in an area considered to be amongst the most productive agricultural land in Australia

Located 25km south-west of the thriving rural village of Willow Tree on the Liverpool Plains, ‘Levondale Homestead’ has been carefully and responsibly managed, with the focus on innovative strategies to protect and enhance the soil and maximise production and profitability.

Occupying the subtle valley formed by Millers Creek, which traverses the property, the property boasts superb soils, gently undulating topography, a favourable climate and, as a result, versatile productive capacity.

This rural property for sale Tamworth region boasts superb soils, gently undulating land, favourable climate and versatile productive capacity

Typical of the Liverpool Plains, soils are consistent, deep-cracking black clays which swell when wet and shrink/crack when dry and are known for their high water-holding capacity. Trees, largely box, line Millers Creek and are scattered on the western side of the creek. The eastern side of the creek has relatively few trees.

Due to the favourable combination of climate, soils, topography and management, ‘Levondale Homestead’ is an extremely flexible mixed farming property. The farming/grazing ratio can be quickly adapted to changing circumstances in either markets or climate to maximise margins.

Located in one of the few parts of the world where summer and winter crops can be grown with equal success, the property’s cultivation area of approximately 82 hectares (203 acres) has produced premium-quality, high-yielding crops at all times of the year.

Wheat, sorghum, canola, chick peas, mung beans, barley, oats and field peas have been included in the current owners’ rotations and double cropping is possible. A key strategy of the property’s grazing program is the maintenance of ground cover to protect and enhance the quality of the soil.

This rural property for sale Tamworth region boasts abundant water via a permanent creek, two wells, eight dams and high rainfall

Crucial to the property’s high productivity is abundant water sourced from a combination of the permanent Millers Creek, a large 30-megalitre dam plus smaller dam, and two equipped wells which supply water to two 100,000-litre concrete tanks and reticulated via poly pipe to a network of concrete troughs.

Watering points are located throughout ‘Levondale Homestead’ so cattle never have to walk more than approximately 400m to water. High average annual rainfall of around 700mm is captured by approximately 154,000 litres of rainwater storage at the homestead.

This rural property for sale Tamworth region features first-class infrastructure including good quality fencing and shedding

In keeping with the property’s focus of versatility, internal electric fences facilitate ease of transition between grazing and farming options. Internal fencing consisting of a mixture of permanent and electric fencing subdivides the property into seven main paddocks.

Boundary fencing is fit for purpose, consisting of new fencing plus segments of maintained older fencing.
