Sherrod - A Rare Northern Rivers Holding Offered for the First Time in Over 50 Years

Offered to the market for the first time in more than 50 years, Sherrod presents a rare opportunity to secure a productive rural holding on the renowned Alstonville Plateau. Held by the current owners for over five decades, the property combines quality agricultural land, comfortable family living and future potential in a sought-after Northern Rivers location.

Ideally positioned just 8 minutes from Alstonville, approximately 15 minutes from both Ballina and Lismore, and only 20 minutes from Ballina Byron Gateway Airport and the region's beautiful beaches, Sherrod offers the convenience of nearby services while retaining the peace and privacy of a rural setting.

Rich red basalt soils, improved grazing pastures and excellent water security provide the foundation for a productive and versatile rural property, well suited to cattle production, stud operations or a relaxed rural lifestyle.

Improved Kikuyu and Rhodes grass pastures, complemented by established clover and creeping Shaw vigna, provide quality grazing across the property. The property currently supports approximately 20 breeding cows producing annual 300kg-plus weaner calves, demonstrating its productive carrying capacity.

Water security is a key feature, with an 8ML water licence, a solar-powered pump servicing the sheds and cattle troughs, excellent fencing, three well-maintained paddocks and a practical laneway system leading directly to the cattle yards.

The four-bedroom homestead has been tastefully renovated and offers comfortable family living, surrounded by established gardens and a spacious covered outdoor entertaining area overlooking the rural landscape.

Property improvements include:
• Large machinery shed with workshop facilities
• Additional storage shed adjoining the cattle yards
• Functional cattle yards with well-designed working areas
• Lock-up garage with sealed bitumen driveway access
• Established chicken run
• Mature orchard featuring avocados and citrus trees

A superb, elevated north-east-facing homesite offers the ideal setting for a new residence (STCA). Enjoying breathtaking 360-degree views across the property and surrounding countryside, it provides the opportunity to create a new home while retaining the existing homestead.
