AGENTS’ COMMENTS
Rockland Spring presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a
substantial, balanced and highly developed freehold property in a very tightly-held area of Central Queensland. The spring is a huge asset, fully utilised throughout the holding. The location on all-weather roads to major towns and selling centres adds to its value.
