Riverina aggregation at strategic highway location: two families unite to present prime mixed farming portfolio

In a significant offering for the tightly held Riverina farmland market near Narrandera, two prominent farming families have combined their holdings to present an aggregation of prime properties with strategic positioning along the Newell Highway.

The Charles and Burden families are offering three established properties near Narrandera – Rockvale, The Station and Clifton – creating a substantial agricultural portfolio of 2,761 hectares of predominantly open farming country with exceptional connectivity to major markets.

Craig Pellow of McGrath Rural, who is handling the sale, describes the offering as a rare opportunity to secure prime agricultural land in one of the Riverina's most productive regions.

"These are three highly arable farms for a mix of large-scale cropping and mixed farming with access to Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra from the Newell and nearby Sturt Highways," Mr Pellow said.

"It's an outstanding investment in a highly productive region."

The properties are available individually or as a complete portfolio, offering versatility for various agricultural enterprises from broadacre cropping to livestock operations.

Clifton, the 946-hectare property owned by Ron and Margaret Burden, features extensive infrastructure including a four-stand raised board wool shed, five self-emptying silos, sheep and cattle yards, and multiple sheds for machinery, fertiliser and hay storage.

"Clifton is a highly productive and versatile property, offering expansive open runs, quality infrastructure, and a reliable water supply, ideal for broadacre cropping or mixed farming enterprises," Mr Pellow noted.

The Charles family's 1,198-hectare Rockvale property boasts rich soil profiles and well-planned layout suited to mixed farming or large-scale cropping. Infrastructure includes a comfortable homestead, a five-stand raised board shearing shed with hydraulic press, four 500-bag Kotzur silos, sheep yards and machinery shed.

Adding to Rockvale's investment appeal is an established quarry operation currently leased to Mawsons & Sons Pty Ltd, providing secure ongoing income through a structured agreement covering rent, royalties and extraction activities.

Completing the aggregation is The Station, comprising 617 hectares of highly arable land with reliable water storage including frontage to permanent Bundidgerry Creek.

The strategic location adjacent to the Newell Highway positions the aggregation with exceptional logistics advantages for agricultural enterprises requiring efficient transport connections to major markets and ports.
