5200 Warrego Highway Crowley Vale, 4342 QLD
In the Heart of Salad Bowl Country!
This 24ha (59.28ac) outstanding horticultural enterprise presents a rare opportunity to secure a highly productive, operationally ready rural holding in one of South East Queensland's premier agricultural districts.
Combining advanced protected cropping infrastructure, substantial broadacre farming capability and comfortable onsite accommodation, the property is ideally suited to intensive horticulture or diversified agricultural production.
At the heart of the operation is an impressive approximately 1-hectare CRAVO greenhouse, purpose-built for efficient year-round production.
The facility features 80 growing rows with 240 drippers per row, integrated track systems capable of doubling as heating lines, fogging systems for temperature control, insect netting and a fully vented roof.
Importantly, all water and power infrastructure has been designed to allow for future expansion, with the greenhouse capable of being doubled in size.
Supporting the greenhouse is a sophisticated, fully automated irrigation and water treatment system engineered to ensure precise nutrient delivery and consistent water quality.
This includes an RO water treatment plant, Priva water management system, dual mixing tanks, water recycling capability, a 270,000-litre clean water storage tank, 110,000-litre recycled water tank and two 20,000-litre bore water poly tanks.
Water security is a major asset, with three licensed bores (two equipped) delivering approximately 5,000 gallons per hour each into a fully lined 50-megalitre ring tank.
Infrastructure includes 4kW submersible bore pumps, a 60hp variable speed irrigation pump servicing both the greenhouse and wider property, plus pressure switch shut-off systems for operational efficiency.
Beyond the Green House, approximately 55 acres of productive cultivation land provides significant flexibility for expansion or mixed farming pursuits.
Previously utilised for crops including cabbage, broccoli, beans, onions and lucerne, the property is serviced by extensive underground irrigation mains (predominantly 6-inch, with some 4-inch) and 10 hydrants.
