173 Astorquia Road South Johnstone, QLD 4859

Lot 12 Astorquia Road is a true Garden of Eden, featuring an incredible collection of tropical fruit trees and edible plants cultivated by the current owners over the past 20 years. What began as a labour of love has grown into an established niche farming enterprise, combining a productive agricultural operation with a remarkable riverside lifestyle.

Specialising in Monkey Bananas and Plantain varieties, the farm has developed a strong reputation within its market. Current reported prices range from $35-$45 for 5kg boxes of Monkey Bananas and $45-$70 for 10kg boxes of Plantains. The sale includes the established business brand, existing marketing channels and trusted agents, providing a valuable foundation for the next owner to continue operations.

A 27ML water allocation directly from the Johnston River supports the farming operation, complemented by fertile soils and an established irrigation and fertigation system. Together, these features provide an important foundation for ongoing production.

Bordering the Johnston River, the property also offers a peaceful natural setting. Manicured riverbanks, flowing rapids and picturesque views from the home create an inviting backdrop for everyday living. Fishing, outdoor entertaining and enjoying the surrounding landscape are all part of the appeal, while alternative ventures such as eco-tourism or intimate weddings may be worth exploring, subject to relevant approvals.

The property also supports a more self-sufficient lifestyle, with fresh produce available on site, a substantial 10kW solar system with battery backup, and mains power. The electrical infrastructure also supports the submersible irrigation pump.
