Bengalla - A Legacy of Seven Generations

For over 150 years, Bengalla has been more than a farm - it has been a legacy. Held by the Blake family since the mid-1800s, this tightly held 243-hectare (600-acre) property has never been on the open market. Now, as the seventh generation hands over the reins, this is a rare opportunity to secure one of New England's finest grazing holdings.

Located just 5km from the welcoming township of Walcha, Bengalla lies in the heart of a district renowned for its fertile soils, cool-climate productivity, and long-standing farming tradition.

A Productive Grazing Enterprise

Bengalla is underpinned by rich basalt and granite soils, dependable 800-1200mm annual rainfall, and an enviable temperate climate. This highly responsive country has a long track record of producing superfine Merino wool, prime beef, and Angus cattle.

Infrastructure includes:

• Nine dams and two bores

• Seven troughs supplied by a 102kL concrete tank

• Well-designed rotational grazing paddocks

• A two-stand unequipped wool shed and additional shedding for farm use

• Carrying capacity has comfortably supported 180 cows and calves through winter, with feed to spare in summer - all without supplementary feeding.

• Lifestyle & Natural Beauty

Beyond its productivity, Bengalla is a sanctuary. The property enjoys 1.42km double frontage of the Apsley River and 480m the Ohio - providing private access for trout fishing, swimming, or simply watching platypus at dusk. Rolling high tablelands and sweeping rural views make every corner of this farm picturesque.

Homestead & Convenience

The original four-bedroom weatherboard farmhouse sits proudly on the land, ready for its next chapter with a new family. Everyday conveniences are in place, with mains power, postal delivery, and a school bus service.

A Rare Offering

Bengalla is not just a property - it is a living piece of history. A legacy built by generations, now waiting for new family to create their own story.
