A great opportunity has arisen eight kilometres west of Tumby Bay on the Lower Eyre Peninsula.
491 Durdins Road is an allotment comprising of pieces 9 and 10 Hundred of Hutchison.
The property is a total of 391.4 hectares with approximately 133.9ha being well-cleared and arable, with the cropping program leased to a local farmer on a yearly basis.
The property is cropped with mainly cereals that are under minimum tillage practices using modern farming equipment, and consists of red and brown loams with some buckshot gravels and small granite rocks.
Numerous water courses run between the hilly terrain and multiple soaks serve as reliable watering points for livestock in all paddocks. The property is fenced into six main paddocks with cyclone and mainly wooden posts in good to average condition.
There is a council water reserve that has a windmill on a bore on the northern boundary of the property in which the vendor has a one-third share.
Other infrastructure includes a two-stand shearing shed with small adjoining workshop, steel sheep yards and loading ramp, insulated shipping container used as an office, toilet/shower block and seed silo.
A 16-panel solar system is installed and there are two 22,750-litre poly rainwater tanks. Grain delivery is at Tumby Bay’s silos and main bunker facility, with major port facilities at Port Lincoln.
Road access to the property is via well-maintained unsealed roads. The region receives a reliable 350-millimetre annual rainfall and is well serviced by the rural townships of Cummins or Tumby Bay with both towns having a choice of agricultural suppliers and multiple machinery dealers.
This property is a solid mixed farming block ideal for livestock production in the present wool and meat markets in a well established farming district known for grain production.
