It was once a historic sugar cane farm with an old rail line running through it, but now one of the Tweed’s largest parcels of land has just hit the market.
The 48.6-hectare property, located at 738 Cudgen Road near the NSW-Queensland border, has been passed down through generations since World War II, when it was purchased by post-war settlers Hec and Ena Robertson.
The farm holds a prominent place in the Tweed’s industry history, having served as a sugar mill and later as the local dairy farm for the Cudgen area.
A 16-kilometre rail line once traversed the property, transporting sugar to the Chinderah Wharf for shipment, and now developers are eyeing off the land.
“Let’s just say my phone and emails have not stopped on this,” Ray White’s Jessica Murphy said.
The land is next to the new Tweed Valley Hospital, and is expected to fetch more than $20 million.
