Allister Millican and the team at Ray White Maleny are proud to present 50-60 Cruice Drive, Woodford, a remarkable rural holding combining two substantial residences, secure water and approximately 2,753m2 of specialised production infrastructure that successfully supported a multimillion dollar farming operation for decades.
Two separate homes provide approximately 436m2 of combined residential accommodation for family, guests, staff or management. Beyond them, a large capacity bore, extensive rainwater storage and 24 climate controlled growing rooms create possibilities extending well beyond those of a conventional rural holding.
The larger production shed measures approximately 70x28 metres and incorporates twelve climate controlled growing rooms, including ten substantial rooms each measuring approximately 7x20 metres. Supporting areas include storage, staff amenities, packing space and an office.
The second production shed measures approximately 40x23 metres and provides a further twelve climate controlled growing rooms, together with a separate cold room and additional storage and utility areas.
For an experienced mushroom grower, it presents an opportunity to investigate recommencing production within an established facility where much of the costly and time consuming foundational work has already been completed. For other operators, the configuration may provide a foundation for propagation, horticulture, hydroponics, specialty food production, research, temperature sensitive storage or another controlled environment enterprise, subject to suitability and any necessary approvals.
The separate rooms could be brought into production progressively, allocated to different cycles or potentially adapted for alternative uses. The real value lies not simply in the buildings, but in the specialised systems, services and considerable investment required to create a facility of this scale.
The previous operator has also indicated a willingness to provide consulting assistance to an incoming purchaser. That experience may be invaluable when assessing the systems, understanding the production history or exploring the recommencement of mushroom farming.
The main residence comprises approximately 264m2 and offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living areas, including an additional kitchenette, dining and lounge area. Its versatile design provides excellent separation for family members, guests or extended family.
The second residence comprises approximately 172m2 and provides three bedrooms, one bathroom, generous living areas, a covered patio and car accommodation.
A rural holding with two substantial homes is already difficult to find. A property with two homes, secure water, approximately 2,753m2 of specialised shedding and 24 climate controlled growing rooms, supported by decades of commercial production, occupies an entirely different category.
For agricultural buyers, it provides an extraordinary head start. For an existing operator or entrepreneur, the infrastructure and proven history may support expansion, renewed production or an entirely new enterprise.
50-60 Cruice Drive should not be viewed as a standard rural property with a collection of sheds. It is a purpose developed agricultural asset with substantial improvements, demonstrated production capability and genuine operational flexibility.
Property highlights include:
• Approximately 14.33 hectares or 35.4 acres
• Two separate residences totalling approximately 436m2
• Four bedroom, two bathroom main residence of approximately 264m2
• Three bedroom, one bathroom second residence of approximately 172m
• Seven bedrooms and three bathrooms across both homes
• Approximately 2,753m2 of specialised shed space
• 24 climate controlled growing rooms across two production sheds
• Separate cold room, packing area, office, staff amenities and storage
• Purpose developed infrastructure for year round controlled environment production
• Successfully supported a multimillion dollar farming operation for decades
• Large capacity bore and extensive rainwater storage
• Potential for agricultural, horticultural and other controlled environment uses, subject to suitability and approvals
• Previous operator willing to provide consulting assistance
50-60 Cruice Drive combines the warmth and practicality of a rural family holding, the flexibility of two independent homes and the infrastructure of a proven commercial agricultural facility.
For the buyer who understands what has been established here and can see what it may become next, this is an opportunity deserving serious consideration.
