‘Yatton’ sells for $12.5M

The 2,823.24 hectare property is situated on May Downs Road, approximately 195km north-west of Rockhampton and 203 kilometres south of Mackay.

Yatton comprises a mix of developed brigalow and softwood scrub country extending onto fertile black soil flats along approximately 3.5km of frontage to the Isaac River.

Over recent years, considerable work has been undertaken across the property, including pasture development, vegetation management, water infrastructure and improvements to livestock handling facilities.

The property includes established improved pastures, permanent lagoons, Isaac River frontage, a recently constructed 30,000sqm solar-equipped dam, interconnected tanks and troughs, central steel cattle yards, cattle dip and laneway systems.

Improvements also include a three-bedroom homestead and a renovated three-bedroom cottage.

Ray White Rural Rockhampton principal Richard Brosnan said the sale reflected continued interest from established producers seeking well-developed grazing country in Central Queensland.

“Yatton is a very practical grazing property that has had a significant amount of development undertaken over a number of years,” Mr Brosnan said.

“The buyers are a local Central Queensland family and the property will complement their existing operation.

“We appreciate the owners trusting us to represent them through the sale process.”

Mr Brosnan said the result also demonstrated that good quality, well-developed grazing properties continued to attract genuine buyer interest when they came to the market.
