Last Listing description (June 2023)

Perched on iconic Bones Knob with views towards Atherton, Mt Bartle Frere, Tinaroo Dam and beyond, this 34 acre (13.75ha) property is only three minutes to Tolga. The current owner bought it in 1985, and it is only the second time it has come on the market in the past 70 years.

An ideally shaped block with boundary fencing, rich volcanic soil and predominantly brachiaria grass, the property has previously been used for grazing. The open eucalypt woodland paddocks and small patch of rainforest makes this a very attractive holding. The main access is off Griffin Road, and a secondary rear access from (gazetted) Bowcock Road.

The house was built in 1883 by the Qld Board of Education for the Herberton headmaster, utilising locally sourced hardwood and red cedar. It was relocated to Bones Knob approx 80 years ago.
