"Wareenup" | Mixed Farming Opportunity in Cranbrook
Positioned just 9 kilometres from Cranbrook in Western Australia's Great Southern region, "Wareenup" presents an opportunity to secure an 874.14 hectare (2,160 acre) mixed farming holding offering versatility and genuine scope to increase production over time.
Held across four titles, the property combines productive cropping country, improved grazing pastures and areas suited to further development and pasture improvement. Approximately 320 hectares is currently cropped, with a further 213 hectares utilised as productive grazing country, providing flexibility across both cropping and livestock enterprises.
Wareenup has been operated under a well-managed long-term local lease, with the farming system tailored to the varying capabilities of the property. Cropping has generally followed a canola and cereal rotation, while productive grazing areas have been improved with established clover and ryegrass pastures.
Soil types comprise predominantly gravelly sandy duplex and sandy duplex soils, together with areas of deeper, lighter sandy soils, providing a useful mix of country for both cropping and grazing.
Importantly, there is further scope for an incoming owner to increase productivity and add value through strategic soil amelioration, paddock reconfiguration, drainage works and pasture development. Lower-lying areas are subject to seasonal waterlogging and salinity, with some already established to tall wheatgrass. These areas provide further opportunity for the establishment of salt and waterlogging-tolerant perennial species to increase their grazing value.
18 dams provide reliable livestock water across the property with several key dams supported by good catchments. Mos t of the dams have been cleaned out in recent years. Fencing ranges from fair to new condition.
Access is another practical feature of Wareenup. Entry is from Newton Road via a gazetted road reserve which continues alongside the property as a laneway along the length of the farm, allowing convenient access to paddocks for machinery and livestock movement.
The location provides excellent connectivity to agricultural infrastructure, with the Cranbrook CBH receival site approximately 9 kilometres away, Mount Barker approximately 40 kilometres away and Albany approximately 90 kilometres to the south.
