Ellesmere

South Burnett farming country — red-soil cropping and grazing scale in the Kumbia district.

Ellesmere (QLD 4610) is a rural locality in Queensland's South Burnett, in the farming district between Kumbia and Kingaroy about three hours north-west of Brisbane. This is renowned red-soil country — peanuts, grain and forage cropping alongside cattle grazing — where properties trade infrequently and almost always by private treaty or expression of interest. Holdings along Kumbia Road, such as those marketed by GC Prestige, typically combine arable scale, reliable rainfall by western standards and proximity to the Kingaroy saleyards and processing infrastructure.

Rural Property Market

Ellesmere is a genuine low-turnover farming district: published medians are not meaningful at this volume, and value is assessed on country type, water, improvements and carrying capacity. The South Burnett's red volcanic soils are among the most tightly held cropping country in southern Queensland.

Location & Access

Roughly 15 minutes from Kingaroy — the South Burnett's commercial centre with schools, hospital and saleyards — and around three hours from Brisbane via the D'Aguilar Highway.
