Productive strong grazing block with a sizeable amount of cropping ground.
Bullocky Wells is situated on the Dukes Highway at Culburra. The property comprises mostly of rising red to brown loams over limestone. This country is well regarded in the district as the cropping ground has elevation, which often can significantly reduce the frost risk. This 450mm reliable rainfall area is also well renowned for producing quality pastures of clover, lucerne and grass.
The clover base on the property is extremely healthy and the farm has a balance of strong flat loamy grazing country scattered with large pink gums, sown down to lucerne. The property has been broken into 14 relatively even paddocks, all watered with a combination of mains and bore water.
The lighter patches in the cropping ground have been clay spread with a healthy amount of clay to even up the paddocks and help with moisture retention. Compost fertilizer has been applied regularly to the cropping paddocks and a considerable amount of rock has been removed from the heavier ground, making it ready to continually crop.
The property has a (21m x 10m) workshop shed including concrete and single phase power and a hay/implement shed that is (12m x 12m). The older shearing shed has been converted into a machinery storage area in parts and would need some renovation to be operational again. The older pig sheds have been converted into storage areas for farm equipment. The property has 2 x 60 tonne, Jaeschke silos and an older 40 tonne, Lysaght. The farm is well set up for cattle, including yard facilities with easy loading access.
The house is a very comfortable 3-bedroom (plus study) stone/brick family home with a pretty outlook over the gums. It encompasses a carport and veranda and has a lockable garage close by. The kitchen, living area and bedrooms are in very good condition, making it a very functional home for the family or a manager. The township of Tintinara is only 15 km away and has a very strong community with everything you need to run a farm from mechanical services, tyre-fitting, engineering and rural supplies. It has a large area school with healthy community and sporting clubs.
Due to its geology and location on the highway the property also has the added benefit of being able to set up a passive income stream on the side with businesses wishing to carry out quarrying of high-quality limestone for roads and desirable coarse concrete sand on the same site.
If you are looking for a property to add onto an existing enterprise or simply run it as a satellite cropping and grazing block, Bullocky wells is well worth considering. It has scope to add value by improving its already strong pastures or to utilise the free nitrogen of a long-term clover base and crop a significant part of the farm.
