This 12 hectare (30 acre) property is situated 12 km to the east of Gympie. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, it is on the school bus route and within easy reach of all local amenities.
Approximately 2000 macadamia trees produce a useful income and can be readily managed by one or two people. This area is well suited to macadamia farming and the crop is currently sold to Suncoast Gold Macadamias in Gympie.
The current owners had no farming experience when they bought the farm 8 years ago but have found the macadamia industry to be hugely supportive and helpful. They now intend to retire to New Zealand.
In addition to the land and trees the property includes:
5 bay shed containing macadamia processing machinery for de-husking, sorting and storage.
Complete range of machinery for macadamia production including three 4×4 tractors.
Access to large dam for irrigation (trees are not currently irrigated).
Full feral pig proofing wire mesh fence and high voltage electric wire.
