BRIAN and Marilyn Berger’s 3138 hectare (7755 acre) freehold Westmar properties Milton Park and Jabiru will auctioned by Ray White Rural on December 8.
Located 106km north west of Goondiwindi, Milton Park property also has a 36ha leasehold area.
Milton Park is described as slightly undulating brigalow, belah country with 800ha that was previously cultivated and returned to improved pasture. Milton Park was a soldier settler block taken off Remilton.
The property has about 800ha of cultivation including 160ha of fallow. Contour banks have been established where required across the cultivation areas.
Water is sourced from 14 dams and pumped to tanks and distributed to troughs located in each paddock.
Milton Park is divided into 19 paddocks. An internal laneway services all paddocks to the cattle yards. The cattle yards have a loading ramp, crush, branding cradle, and a feedbunk for weaning. Other improvements include three houses, sheds, silos, a grain dryer and a storage container.
Marketing agent Roger Lyne, Ray White Rural, said Milton Park would be auctioned as an individual property alongside Jabiru, which is located 8km away.
Jabiru covers 1019ha (2517 acres) of mainly brigalow, belah country running back to box. Water is sourced from four dams and a creek. It is fenced into six paddocks and has cattle yards with crush and branding cradle. Other improvements include a machinery shed.
The previously cultivated areas on Jabiru have been returned to natural grasses and Bilolea buffel.
“The current ownership has managed and operated the two properties as one operation,” Mr Lyne said.
“Milton Park and Jabiru offer the versatility of breeding, fattening, backgrounding with the opportunity of grain or fodder production.”
