One family’s dream to create an idyllic country lifestyle on 36.8 acres in tropical North Queensland could soon be your dream come true.

This very successful and productive fruit farm was started by the Dudley family in 1994, turning undeveloped agricultural land near Mareeba into a lush paradise.

With an average of 300 days of sunshine a year, fertile soil and an abundant, reliable water supply, this could soon be your own private paradise. Yet Mareeba, with its amenities, schools and services, is only 10 minutes away, with Cairns just over an hour’s drive.

This well established longan orchard offers a very lucrative fruit farm operation, with high returns and an enviable lifestyle. Water is abundant – with an entitlement of 74 megalitres per annum from the local Tinaroo Dam. And usage is easy and cheap – there’s no need for expensive pumping equipment here, as the elevation of the farm gravity feeds into a modern irrigation system.

The large, purpose-built packing shed includes dedicated areas for sorting, treating, packing and chilling the fruit, as well as storage areas for the boxes, labels, netting and other packaging materials.

And there’s so much more:
- Gas-powered drying room
- Well-equipped machinery shed – all machinery included in price!
- New Holland 100hp orchard tractor + 3500L Holland 105hp Sprayer
- 2 large, quality built residences with panoramic views across farms and wetlands

If it’s peace and quiet you seek, and a great environment in which to bring up your family, this is it. Rural but accessible, naturally protected from the elements, and boasting a high turnover, this is a true lifestyle business.
