Overview
This substantial rural property, located on Hobson Road at Jarvisfield near Ayr, offers a versatile agricultural lifestyle with a considerable landholding spanning approximately 63.73 hectares (157.48 acres). The majority of this land, about 143.5 acres, is actively cultivated, showcasing its productive soils of light river loams transitioning to heavier delta loams, well-suited to diverse cropping pursuits.
At the heart of the property sits a two-bedroom farm house equipped with air conditioning and a front deck, complemented by a carport. The residence currently generates income with a rental return of $330 per week, presenting potential for additional earnings or future owner occupation. Adjacent to this is a large steel timber machinery shed featuring six bays, providing comprehensive space for equipment storage and farm operations.
Water resources are ample and efficiently managed, including three electric submersible bore pumps and an electric open water pump drawing from Plantation Creek. Notably, the property benefits from an open water entitlement via Lower Burdekin Water, offering cost-effective irrigation at approximately $21 per megalitre, which supports the substantial sugar cane production typically around 6000 tonnes per season.
Investors or farmers seeking a productive cane farm with established infrastructure and water access will appreciate the scale and functionality of this property. The current 2026 season will yield a reduced crop of approximately 3000 tonnes due to ongoing laser levelling works on some 43 acres, set for cane planting in March 2026. This ongoing investment in land improvement speaks to the property's capacity for sustained agricultural output.
Overall, this rural asset combines lifestyle with investment potential in a proven and accessible farming region, delivering infrastructure, water resources, and productive soils within close proximity to the town of Ayr.
