Property of the week: Delamere Park, QLD

With over 638 acres and just an hour away from Brisbane, this horse and cattle property sure does impress.

Located in Atkinsons Dam, the property is also very close to other major cities including Ipswich, which is only 45 minutes away, and Toowoomba, which is only 50 minutes.

The land on offer is vast and measures at 259ha or 639 acres. The property is well balanced and the country runs from large leasehold Atkinsons dam flats in season to elevated dark brown and sandy loam country, predominately timbered with gum, box and ironbark, with small areas of pine located near the cattle yards.

The property is well fenced and is divided into six large grazing paddocks and two holding paddocks, which are all watered.

At present the property is not cultivating any forms of produce, however there is potential for the prospective owner to do just that.

There are two sets of cattle yards. One is located in the middle of the property; two laneways supply access to the steel yards which consist of various size yards, race, cattle crush and loading ramps and a race and calf cradle, which is also positioned in the yards.

The second is a large lined weaning/cutting pen which has a drafting area adjacent to the crush and loading ramp.

The property has an impressive sandstone home which was only built 10 years ago and is located on the northern end of the property, so as to best enjoy the northern sunshine.

The agents say the home comes equipped with all the luxuries and amenities that one would expect of a modern home.

It features four spacious bedrooms, with the master bedroom including an ensuite and walk in robe, a large open plan living area, a very well appointed kitchen complete with a gas six burner Smeg stove, dishwasher, pantry and marble bench tops.

The kitchen is central to the formal dining, lounge, TV room, family area and office or sitting area. A spacious, screened-in room is positioned adjacent the fenced salt water pool.

The home is partly air conditioned and there is a wood heater located in the family living area. To complete the entertaining picture, overlooking the pool is a sandstone man cave and a pool entertaining room.

The property also includes a stable complex which consists of four stables, approximately 6m x 3m rubber flooring with day yards, two bay feed areas, a tack room, concrete wash bay and a four-horse walker.

In addition, the property also has a self-contained one bedroom-studio which is located in the stable complex.
