$3,400,000
198.38 ha
Area:
Loomberah Park is approximately 198.4ha / 490.2ac of freehold land that is zoned RU1.
Country:
The topography of Loomberah Park is very gently undulating with some areas of flat country. 80% of the property is arable and 90% of the property has been pasture improved plus fertilised. 60% of the property was deep ripped in December 2020 which has allowed the country to really utilise the rain that has fallen in the area.
The soil type is predominately basalt and darkens from red to chocolate the closer you get Reedy Creek which runs through the southern end of the property. The undulating country has been professionally contoured to minimise erosion and the most of this has been cropped and then planted down to subtropicals to capitalise on the summer storms and ensure feed through the warm months.
Majority of the flatter country currently has oats planted and has turned off fat lambs or finished cattle through the winter months. This country is ideal to keep planting winter forage crop in or is also now clean enough to plant permanent pasture.
The strategic management plan at Loomberah Park ensures feed all year round with the perfect mix of subtropicals through the warmer months and clean, dark, fertile country for forage crops through the colder months.
Water:
A bore is located not far from the main compound and is powered by electricity. It has not been tested for depth or yield as there has been no need. Through the drought the numbers turned off Loomberah Park were not dis similar to a normal season and the bore was solid all the way through.
The bore pumps to a 5,000 Gallon (22,500 Litre) tank that feeds 14 troughs throughout the property as well as the supplies water to shed, garden, trees along the driveway and the newly established tree lane on Loomberah Road.
The watering system is backed up by 10 dams spread throughout the property and Reedy Creek.
Fencing:
The fencing at Loomberah Park is a real feature. A lot of new end assemblies have been installed and fences erected over the past 18 months. The materials used on any of the new fences are 100% Australian made and of high quality.
The new end assemblies consist of 2 x 100mm round posts driven into the ground with 115m x 42mm cattle rail welded between them. For added stability and longevity a stay post has also been driven into the ground with a 50mm pipe welded in. Majority of the original end assemblies are a single 100mm round post braced by a stay post and rail.
The new fences are made from a barbed top wire, hinge joint braced by 3 plain wires with some also having an electric wire below the top barb. Posts in the new section are all 8ft Waratah's and a mix of standard and maxi posts. Majority of the original fences are made from barbed and plain wire with some having a single electric wire as well.
There are also two laneways systems on the property making livestock and machinery movements very efficient.
Carrying Capacity:
The carrying capacity of Loomberah park is unproven as extensive pasture work has taken place over the past two years. Considering the quality of soil and pastures, it would be more suited to a backgrounding or finishing enterprise.
Infrastructure:
Main Shed - A large well built and powered shed that has multiple uses is located at the main compound. It has all weather road leading to it with a substantial area around it also weatherproof.
The western side of the shed is very functional and has multiple uses:
Section 1
6m x 8m
Machinery / vehicle parks.
Dirt Floor
High bay light
Section 2
6m x 8m
Workshop
Concrete floor
High bay light
Lockable
Section 3
12m x 8m
Stables / Machinery / Feed Storage
Dirt Floor
The stable fencing can swing back against the shed allowing a quick transformation into another machinery shed or room to store fodder. But for the equine enthusiast, the stables open into a day yard that is fenced with cattle rail and access to a horse friendly trough. This day yard then opens into a paddock that has been specifically fenced to suit horses.
The eastern side of the shed is utilised for a machinery shed. It has 4 bays that are 6m x 8m and 2 high bay lights.
Hay Shed - There is a hay shed located at the centre of the property with a laneway and all weather road leading to it. It consists of 3 x 6m bays and is 12m deep (18m x 12m).
Livestock Handling Facilities - A set of cattle yards are located on the eastern side of the main compound and has all weather access to the unloading ramp. The yards are constructed of portable steel panels with a wooden race leading to the crush.
Fodder Storage - A 40 tonne silo is located near the cattle yards.
Rainfall:
The average annual rainfall in the Loomberah area is 625mm - 650mm (25" - 26")
Accommodation:
Loomberah Park offers a comfortable 4 bedroom weatherboard home with a verandah on 3 sides, and a covered patio / entertaining area on the southern side of the house that overlooks the property. High ceilings and an open plan kitchen / dining area climatised by a wooden fire and reverse cycle air conditioner certainly make this a comfortable family home.
A very functional kitchen where the cooking is done on either the Westinghouse electric cook top with Whirlpool range hood, or in the Smeg electric oven. Cleaning has been made easy with a Haier dishwasher and spills won't be an issue as the flooring is tiles.
The renovated main bedroom has remarkable view of the property and includes a sizable walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. The other 3 bedrooms all include built ins and two of these have French doors that open out on to the verandah. There is also an office / storage room that could be utilized as a fifth bedroom if needed.
It wouldn't be a real country home without the house running on fresh rainwater. There are 2 x 5,000 Gallon (22,500 Litre) tanks that fill off the main shed and equipped with a 5.5 Amp (450 Volt) Pumpmaster pressure pump that has the capacity to move 65L /min. Hot water is supplied by a 415L electric unit.
Agents Remarks:
Loomberah Park offers location, productivity, and efficiency. There aren't many opportunities to secure a property of this size and quality only minutes from the Tamworth CBD. All the hard work has been done and this farm has proven that it is productive enough to generate a nice income, while at the same time being very easy to manage and not need full time attention for those who have off farm interests or looking to wind down.
Price Guide:
Considering Loomberah Park's excellent location, soil type, pasture improvement and size, it is entitled to make upward of $3,000,000.
