NEW property listings this month include Roundhay in Western Australia, the Hogan Family Farms Portfolio in Victoria and the Warrawee Aggregation in NSW, while the asking price for Kilnyana in the Riverina has dropped $5 million.

Roundhay, Western Australia

After more than a century of family ownership, the Brayshaw family has decided to sell Roundhay near Mount Walker in the Eastern Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

The 3678ha mixed farm owned and operated by the Brayshaws since 1924 is 5km from Mount Walker and 25km from Narembeen, with easy access to CBH receival sites and regional services.

Nutrien Harcourts WA agent William Morris was unable to provide a price guide, however Roundhay is anticipated to achieve $3700-$4000 an arable hectare.

This aligns with the nearby Waitavalo Farms, which Mr Morris sold earlier this year.

Mr Morris said Roundhay is attracting strong inquiry from locals wanting to expand and farmers from outside the district seeking higher rainfall, scale and affordability.

Across the aggregation, 3222ha are arable. Roundhay is offered as a whole or in three parcels: 1425ha Roundhay (1240ha arable), 740ha Treloar’s (596ha arable) and 1513ha Menegola’s and Lethlean’s (1386ha arable).

The property currently operates on a 50/50 cropping and grazing rotation.

The 2026 cropping program has been planted to 1600ha of wheat, barley and oats, alongside 1200 Merino ewes and lambs, along with 500 hoggets.

The undulating land features red, grey and sandy duplexes, loamy gravels and yellow sandy earths. Extensive salt land rehabilitation has been undertaken on multiple sites across the farm.

Roundhay is watered by 21 dams, two equipped bores in a 317mm average annual rainfall zone. Infrastructure includes a four-bedroom home, multiple sheds, a four-stand shearing shed, sheep yards and seven grain silos.

Roundhay will be auctioned online on a bare basis on October 15, with settlement post-harvest in January 2027.

Hogan Family Farms Portfolio, Victoria

An irrigated cropping opportunity with renewable energy potential in the Gannawarra district of northern Victoria is anticipated to raise around $14.3M, or $6177/ha.

The 2315ha Hogan Family Farms Portfolio is near Murrabit, 12km north-east of Kerang and 52km from Swan Hill.

It comprises two non-contiguous landholdings, referred to as North (1471ha) and South (843ha) within a 6km radius.

Across the holdings, there are 1891ha of developed irrigation, comprising 1039ha of laser-levelled flood, 772ha of lateral spray and 80ha of centre pivot.

The Hogan Family Farms Portfolio has fertile soil types conducive to growing cereals, oilseeds and vegetables. Currently, the properties are growing wheat, barley, canola, vetch and oats.

LAWD agent Patrick Kerr reports productivity has been enhanced by significant capital expenditure on land class development, soil amelioration and upgrading laneways.

Irrigation water is accessed via the Goulburn-Murray Irrigation district, supported by an average annual rainfall of 373mm.

Infrastructure includes three homes, numerous sheds and grain storage.

The properties are adjacent to the Victoria-New South Wales Interconnector West (VNI West) preferred transmission line corridor.

The proposed high capacity 500kV transmission line enables grid access for renewable energy developments such as wind, solar and green hydrogen.

The Hogan Family Farms Portfolio is offered for sale by expressions of interest closing October 22.

Warrawee Aggregation, NSW

Offers of around $11 million, or $4884/ha are being sought for a versatile platform for cropping and livestock production in New South Wales’ Central West.

The 2252ha Warrawee Aggregation owned since the 1960s by retiring 99-year-old Condobolin-based Richard Howarth is being sold by expressions of interest closing October 8.

The property near Tullibigeal  is close to GrainCorp receival facilities and the Central West Livestock Exchange in Forbes.

The aggregation sits in a reliable 432-457mm average annual rainfall zone. It features gently undulating country with highly productive red sandy loam soils, boasting a 90 percent arability.

While currently planted to canola, the undulating land is equally suited to barley and wheat crops.

Forbes Livestock Agency & Co agent Jack Piercy said the three adjoining blocks are offered as a whole or individual holdings.

“This provides flexibility for purchasers seeking to expand an existing enterprise, consolidate landholdings or acquire an individual property.

“It is early days, but the Warrawee Aggregation is already attracting interest from farmers in the tightly held district,” Mr Piercy said.

The three adjoining properties that make up the aggregation benefit from sealed road access and connection to local water schemes. They comprise:

• 1043ha Warrawee: A versatile farming and grazing block divided into 16 paddocks with rose clover and native pastures. Watered by multiple dams, tanks and the Wardry Water Scheme. Infrastructure includes a four-bedroom home, new cattle yards, a three-stand shearing shed, sheep yards, multiple sheds and 459 tonnes of grain storage across six silos;
• 404ha Bimble: A scale-building grazing block divided into seven paddocks. It is watered by three dams and the Wardry Water Scheme, and includes two sheds; and,
• 805ha Worrongorra: An established cropping block split into five paddocks. It features secure water access via three dams and the Wallaroi Creek Water Scheme.

Kilnyana, NSW

The asking price for the Southern Riverina property Kilnyana has been reduced to $33M, or $7625/ha, after seven weeks on the market.

This update reflects a $5M drop from the Hermiston family’s July asking price of $38M, which had already been scaled back from initial expectations of over $40M a year ago.

When factoring in a conservative $1M valuation for the property’s structural improvements, the revised bare price for the fenced and watered asset sits at $7394/ha.

The 4328ha property is located near Savernake, 25km south-east of Berrigan, 30km north of Mulwala and 45km east of Tocumwal, placing it close to grain receival sites, abattoirs and saleyards.

It is only the second time in 150 years that Kilnyana has been offered for sale.

Hermiston AG Enterprises, established in 1986, is a family-owned business that farms a further 9500ha across four properties, including Lake Piccaninny and Quiamong near Conargo and Lyndhurst near Brocklesby.

LAWD agents Col Medway and Patrick Kerr have been appointed to manage the latest sales campaign.

They said Kilnyana is already drawing good interest from local and corporate buyers.

“Buyers who appreciate the ability to pivot between sheep, cattle and cropping systems to capture market changes will be drawn to Kilnyana which has a long history of true mixed-farming capability,” they said.

Kilnyana is regarded as a premier mixed farming enterprise, supporting dryland cropping, prime lamb, wool and beef production.

Around 2800ha of mostly red and grey clay loam soils have been developed for dryland cropping. The 2026 program comprises 1124ha of canola, 1095ha of barley, 521ha of wheat and 60ha of vetch. The balance includes 1004ha of native pastures, which are arable and could be developed for cropping, along with 352ha of improved pastures (lucerne) and 172ha of timbered grazing country.

Historically, the breeding and finishing enterprise has run 2000-2500 ewes for meat and wool production, alongside opportunistic lamb trading and beef agistment.

Kilnyana is located in a 470mm average annual rainfall region, and is also supplied by the Mulwala Canal via the MIL pipeline system, as well as 27 dams.

Infrastructure includes a historic circa-1926 eight-bedroom homestead, two staff residences, shearers’ quarters, an eight-stand shearing shed, two sheep yards, cattle yards, numerous sheds and 675 tonnes of grain storage.
