Located in the tightly held Pilton Valley with picturesque views over rich fertile country within close proximity to the major city of Toowoomba and rural townships. The owners have been running a successful grain and cattle operation but the time to scale the business down and semi-retire has arrived which makes an outstanding opportunity for the new owners. 'Alfred Park' is Simply The Best!
