The current owners have invested themselves into creating a unique property where a lifestyle and commercial operation work together to create a much-needed haven for nature. This stunning 4+ bedroom homestead is set in an elevated position that provides a 360-degree view of the property from your wrap-around verandah. There is an additional self-contained, comfortable 2-bedroom weatherboard cottage with timber deck overlooking the magnificent views that surround the property. There is a substantial 12m x 15m Colorbond American barn style shed and two additional, recently built steel sheds located away from the houses. The property is powered by a mixture of electricity from the solar panels and the grid. The house complex is serviced by 2 x 50,000 litre rainwater tanks and a 150,000 litre rainwater tank installed beside the farm sheds. This organic and chemical-free property is approximately 51.5 hectares (127 acres) and ready for you and your family to enjoy the fruits of the current owners' labours. About 25 hectares of cleared land has an established Macadamia plantation of around 5,700 trees. The farm has been operated as a biological living environment since the owners purchased the property. They engaged the services of a specialist horticultural agronomic service to guide them through the entire macadamia planting and establishment process. Medium density spacing between trees of 10m x 3.5m – equating to 286 trees per hectare – was decided upon as this facilitates easy inter-row sward management and provides sufficient spacing for optimal light penetration, air flow and tree growth. The tree spacing layout provides the advantage of an increase in cash flow in the first 15 years of operations and enables the removal of intra-row trees in the future without loss of high productivity. Tree rows were deep ripped to a depth of 50cm with 3 parallel rips per row to ensure and facilitate easy and fast root development. Composed cow manure was incorporated in the rows prior to planting, adding both bioavailable nutrition and beneficial soil microbes. Every tree row terminates with a machinery access service road. Most tree rows have an approximate length of 100 meters to maximise harvest efficiency. Tree row positioning and alignment were all calculated by a professional surveying company and the macadamia trees were planted with the goal of facilitating automated harvesting in the future. Every year the farm is spray fertilised with the Biodynamic Association's Fish and Kelp to promote soil and plant microbial biodiversity. Management of any grass competition at the base of the macadamias is effectively addressed by using coconut fibre weed suppression mats around each tree base. The owners will make themselves available to provide any guidance, should you need it. There is an additional 25 hectares of native forest which includes Pine Creek frontage and a stretch of biodiverse remnant forest adjoining the rainforested Bongil Bongil National Park. There is an abundance of space to produce all the food you want. There is a tropical fruit and nut orchard with 23 varieties of tropical fruit trees and a variety of medicinal and culinary herbs plus 3 organic vegetable gardens for food security. It's truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. We can provide some of the preparatory work the owners undertook prior to planting the orchard. You will find that is the exception and not the rule.
