102 Years of Ownership

159.58 acres in the Glenrae District of Mundubbera. This much-loved family property has been in the one family for three generations. The family purchased the farm from the late Pat Whelan on the 12/06/1922 after arriving by horse and dray with their six children. The Glenrae School was located across the road at the time and the rest is history.

– Approximately 80% on the vegetation map and softwood scrub country
– Almost all the property has been cleared
– Ex-dairy farm, piggery and cropping – cultivation with red soil
– 2 dams
– 2 paddocks and a lane-way system
– Barb wire and steel picket fencing
– Carries 20 breeders year in year out comfortably
– 10 minutes’ drive to town

Improvements consist of:
– A high-set 4-bedroom home constructed with timber and fibro
– New adjustable steel stumps
– Roof in fair condition
– 1 rainwater tank
– New second bathroom and laundry
– Electrical and plumbing upgraded in 2024
– New staircase at front of home
– 3 reverse cycle air-conditioners
– Vinyl and carpet floor coverings however the home has timber floorboards that could be sanded back and polished
– Some built-in cupboards in bedrooms
– Dining room and a large lounge room together with a small entrance room at the back door
– High ceilings
– 1 bathroom upstairs and one downstairs
– Large machinery shed constructed of iron and timber
– Old dairy shed with milk room with a concrete floor which would make an ideal tack room
– Old piggery
– 1 X grain shed

This home has huge potential. I can see that if you painted the interior a light neutral shade and polished the floorboards you would have a beautiful home. Convert the back entry to a mudroom for convenience. The fibro on the two sides of the home could easily be covered with cladding or colorbond and new paintwork would give the home a new lease of life.

This property would be an excellent starter block, lifestyle or add-on block to fatten your cattle. An additional rental income of approximately $350.00 a week would also be an advantage.
