The freehold property in 18 titles offered by John and Julie Slack is situated on Cunningham Highway 10km west of Inglewood and 80km east of Goondiwindi.
Carisbrooke ranges from rich alluvial flats along its 600m frontage to the Macintyre Brook back to productive brigalow, belah and open melonhole grazing country.
There is 180ha of dryland cultivation, 160ha of leucaena, and 80ha of irrigated cultivation with the balance being 1073ha of open grazing country. The irrigation country is serviced by two Zimmatic pivots.
The property is divided into 24 main paddocks with a laneway. An exclusion fence has also been constructed around the irrigation country.
Structural improvements include a two storey, four-bedroom home situated in immaculate surrounds with an inground swimming pool.
There is also a two bedroom cottage, machinery shed, workshop, 500 tonne silo complex, and steel cattle yards.
