“CANUNGRA” HOME
A most attractive solid red brick home built in 1970 offering three (3) double bedrooms, bright kitchen area plus open plan dining, living and lounge areas, two (2) bathrooms, sunroom, office and double garage. A comfortable well designed home typical of the era in which it was built. The outside living areas are focused on family with an inground salt chlorinated tiled swimming pool and flood lit synthetic surface tennis court. The whole home area is complimented by spacious gardens and mature trees. “Canungra” is an excellent lifestyle property.

REMARKS
“Canungra” is an extremely well situated property that has been traditionally a grazing/fattening property of both sheep and cattle. In more recent times and under current management there has been cropping introduced to the overall enterprise. Extensive subdivision has seen the property increase to 21 major paddocks which in turn allows the property to support in the main a prime lamb enterprise, a cropping enterprise and opportunity cattle fattening program. “Canungra” is essentially genuine mixed farming country that can readily adapt and place emphasis on prime lambs, cattle breeding/fattening, cropping or in particular a stud enterprise whether it be cattle, sheep or horses.
