LOT 46 ' ' 64.75 HECTARES (~ 160 ACRES) $170,000 WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER THESE BLOCKS OF LAND? 1. GREAT PIECE OF AUSTRALIAN BUSH WITH MAGNIFICENT VIEWS AND EXCELLENT WATER: EACH BLOCK IS IN A HIGH FLOOD-FREE LOCATION WITH VIEWS TOWARDS KILLARNEY AND THE GREAT DIVIDING RANGE; UNDULATING TO HILLY ASPECT, PARTIALLY CLEARED. THERE IS AN EXISTING SPRING FED DAM ON EACH BLOCK AND NUMEROUS SPRINGS, AS WELL AS SEVERAL FURTHER POTENTIAL DAM SITES 2. CLOSE TO MAJOR CENTRES: ONLY 2.5 HOURS TO BRISBANE AND EASY ACCESS TO WARWICK (APPROXIMATELY 25 MINUTES), ALREADY A MAJOR TOWN ON THE DARLING DOWNS BUT DEVELOPING FURTHER WITH THE INCREASING 'TREE CHANGE' MOVEMENT. THERE ARE NUMEROUS JOB OPPORTUNITIES IN AND AROUND WARWICK. THE DELIGHTFUL SMALL TOWN OF KILLARNEY IS ALSO JUST 15 MINUTES AWAY - THE GROWTH IN THIS QUIET COUNTRY TOWN OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS HAS BEEN AMAZING WITH MANY NEW HOUSES BEING BUILT. PERHAPS YOU WANT TO GO OUT FOR DINNER? OR A ROUND OF GOLF? OR PERHAPS SOME HORSE-RIDING? ALL THIS IS AVAILABLE JUST NEXT DOOR AT CHERRABAH IF YOU WISH, OR DRIVE THE SHORT DISTANCE INTO WARWICK 3. EXCELLENT INVESTMENT POTENTIAL: SOUTH EAST QUEENSLAND IS EXPERIENCING GREAT GROWTH AND THIS IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE FOR NUMEROUS YEARS TO COME. TO VERIFY THIS, CHECK OUT THE QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT REPORTS AND PREDICTIONS FOR SOUTH EAST QUEENSLAND - LOOK AT THE WEBSITES OR TALK TO THE QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT POLITICIANS. BRISBANE AND SE QUEENSLAND NOW HAS GREATER MIGRANT INTAKE FROM OVERSEAS THAN SYDNEY OR MELBOURNE. SO GROWTH IS CERTAINLY PREDICTED TO CONTINUE WELL INTO THE FUTURE DESPITE THE ECONOMIC DOWN-TURN. PEOPLE STILL HAVE TO LIVE SOMEWHERE, AND AUSTRALIA IS IN A FAR BETTER ECONOMIC POSITION THAN MANY OTHER COUNTRIES. SOUTH-EAST QUEENSLAND IS A VERY ATTRACTIVE LOCATION WITHIN AUSTRALIA, WITH MANY AUSTRALIANS MOVING TO THIS LOCALITY EACH WEEK. THE COSTS OF LAND THROUGHOUT SE QUEENSLAND WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY. MANY PEOPLE ARE LOOKING A QUIETER ARE MORE SUSTAINABLE LIFE AWAY FROM THE COASTAL HUSTLE AND BUSTLE - MANY ARE LOOKING TO RURAL AREAS AND RURAL COMMUNITIES, WHERE LIFE IS MORE PEACEFUL, PEOPLE ARE MORE FRIENDLY, YOU QUICKLY BECOME PART OF THE COMMUNITY (HOW OFTEN IN A MAJOR TOWN DO YOU EVEN KNOW YOUR IMMEDIATE NEIGHBOURS?) AND TRAFFIC JAMS ARE MOSTLY NON-EXISTENT (YOU MAY HAVE TO STOP FOR A KANGAROO OR A DAIRY FARMER TAKING THE COWS IN TO MILK. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CURRENT LOW INTEREST RATES (PREDICTED TO GO EVEN LOWER SOON!). 4. BLOCKS THIS SIZE CAN NO LONGER BE SUBDIVIDED OFF LARGE PROPERTIES: SO WHEN YOU CANNOT MAKE MORE OF A COMMODITY, IT BECOMES RARER AND RARER - AND MORE VALUABLE. IT IS NOW NOT POSSIBLE UNDER GOVERNMENT LEGISLATION PASSED SEVERAL YEARS AGO TO SUBDIVIDE LAND BELOW 200 HECTARES (WITH EXCEPTIONS FOR NEW DEVELOPMENTS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO MAJOR EXISTING TOWNS/CITIES/DEVELOPMENTS). SO NO MORE 200 ACRE, 250 ACRE OR 300 ACRE BLOCKS WILL EVER BE MADE AVAILABLE! (OR AT LEAST UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT CHANGES LEGISLATION BUT THIS IS VERY UNLIKELY FOR MANY YEARS, IF EVER - POSSIBLY NOT IN OUR LIFETIMES). 5. ENHANCED INVESTMENT POTENTIAL DUE TO RESORT NEXT DOOR: THE LAND IS NEXT TO CHERRABAH, AN EXISTING TOURIST ATTRACTION THAT IS EXPANDING TO BECOME A MAJOR DEVELOPMENT SITE, WITH LAND VALUES IN THE SURROUNDING AREA EXPECTED TO POSSIBLY DOUBLE IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS. THE DEVELOPMENT INCLUDES AN EXPANSION OF THE RESORT FACILITIES FOR UP TO 4,000 GUESTS. CHERRABAH IS A LARGE PROPERTY OF SEVERAL THOUSAND ACRES, SO EVEN WITH THIS FUTURE DEVELOPMENT, THE PEACE AND TRANQUILLITY OF CULLENDEN HEIGHTS WILL NOT BE AFFECTED. CHECK OUT THE CHERRABAH WEBSITE SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT THE LAND LOOKS LIKE AND SEE THE GREAT VIEWS THAT ALSO CAN BE SEEN FROM OUR BLOCKS. 6. LIVE WITH MINIMAL COSTS AND A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE: EXPERIENCE PURE CLEAN AIR AND SOIL NOT CONTAMINATED BY INDUSTRIAL WASTE OR BY AGRICULTURAL CHEMICALS. WITH SOLAR POWER, SUPPLEMENTED BY WIND POWER IF YOU WISH, YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE MAJOR INCREASES IN POWER SUPPLY PRICES. ALSO WITH WATER TANKS, YOU WILL NOT WORRY ABOUT THE INCREASING COSTS OF SUPPLYING WATER FACED IN THE CITY. REMEMBER THAT THERE IS ALSO SUBSTANTIAL UNDERGROUND WATER AVAILABLE, AS WELL AS DAMS FOR ADDITIONAL WATER IF REQUIRED. THEN GROW YOUR OWN FRUIT AND VEGETABLES, PERHAPS YOUR OWN CHICKENS FOR EGGS AND MEAT, AND EVEN GOATS OR CATTLE OR PIGS IF YOU WISH - AND IT'S ALL ORGANIC TOO WITHOUT THE ADDITIONAL PRICE YOU PAY FOR ORGANIC PRODUCE IN THE SHOPS! DO YOU KNOW THAT THE GOVERNMENT PROVIDES VERY SUBSTANTIAL REBATES ON SOLAR POWER WHEN YOU ARE IN A LOCATION WHERE POWER IS NOT AVAILABLE? POWER IS ONLY A FEW POSTS AWAY FROM ONE BLOCK, SO THIS IS A POSSIBILITY - BUT WOULD YOU BOTHER WHEN THE GOVERNMENT WILL PAY MUCH OF THE COSTS OF YOUR ALTERNATIVE POWER SYSTEM, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
