COUNTRY
“Eleanor Farm” sits on the northern rim of the renowned Kilcummin district, set on heavy black soil country, in a reliable rainfall area.
The property comprises principally of approximately 2,487 Hectares (6,145.5 Acres) of developed dryland cultivation, being undulating, self-mulching, black soils. The cultivation was developed in the early 1980’s and has been producing ever since. Farm West paddock (1,511 Hectares) currently has Sorghum stubble from this summer. Farm East paddock has been split into 393 Hectares of Wheat & 524 Hectares of Chickpea.
Approximately 1,126.24 Hectares (2,783 Acres) of Alluvial open & semi open black soils, the main timber species being Yellowwood, Gidgee, Boree and Coolabah in waterways. Well established pastures include Buffel, Mitchell, Flinders, Blue Grasses, Butterfly Pea & Desmanthus. The 5 grazing paddocks have been rotationally grazed for the last 9 years, resulting in great ground cover, quantity & quality of pasture and stock shade. Estimated carrying capacity is 450 adult equivalents, without using any cultivation.
The vegetation by category is split by the following areas.
Category R – 54.65 Hectares (135.04 Acres)
Category B – 592.60 Hectares (1,464.34 Acres)
Category X – 2,963.63 Hectares (7,323.28 Acres)
Approximately 477 Hectares or 1,179 Acres could be cultivated after little to no clearing, in areas that are Category X on the vegetation map. This could make the total potential cultivation come up to 2,963 Hectares or 7,323 Acres.
Single phase power has been erected on a potential Homestead site.
WATERS
“Eleanor Farm” is watered by 3 dams and seasonal water.
Eleanor Dam – Approximately 20,000 cubic yards, newly fenced water square, with turkey’s nest feeding to a new 6m steel trough. Equipped with a diesel engine firefighter on trailer, pumping into 75mm poly to a 3,000L Poly Tank and 1 concrete trough.
Darkies Dam – Approximately 15,000 cubic yards, plus backwater, unequipped, good clean water, used as the main water source for spraying.
Emu Dam – Approximately 5,000 cubic yards, safe for stock to walk into.
YARDS & FENCING
Cattle Yards
Timber set of stock yards, sits close to the Kilcummin/Diamond Downs Road.
Fencing
Subdivided into 9 main paddocks, with the construction being mostly 3 & 4 barbs, steel & timber posts to steel end assemblies. The grazing paddocks are stock proof, while not all areas of cultivation are fenced, due to the practical nature of moving large farming plant across the property.
RAINFALL DETAILS
The last 5 years rainfall from a telemetry gauge adjoining “Eleanor Farm” are as follows.
• 2019 - 250mm
• 2020 - 478mm
• 2021- 807mm
• 2022 - 474mm
• 2023 - 600mm

REMARKS
“Eleanor Farm” sits on the Northern end of the renowned Kilcummin district, north of Clermont and South/West of Moranbah.
The property has lent itself predominately to broadacre dryland farming and fringe area grazing. With the highly fertile soil available, there is opportunity to develop another 1,179 acres of cultivation or turn the farming areas into a high-density cattle operation.
The vendors are willing to grant early access to the property, once the contract is unconditional, to allow for any timely farming tasks to be completed by the new purchasers.
Rarely does the opportunity arise to allow you to acquire a highly sought after property, in a tightly held area.
