2336 Arnhem Highway, Marrakai NT 0822

220 acres fully fenced | new cattle yards | dual living | spring-fed dam | no agent This property offers a rare combination of scale and infrastructure that most rural holdings in the Top End lack. The new cattle yards with concreted raceway and veterinary crush are not minor additions—they materially reduce labour costs and improve stock management for any grazing operation. The dual dwelling setup, with a solid three-bedroom brick home and a separate one-bedroom granny flat, gives a buyer immediate flexibility: house a manager, generate rental income, or accommodate extended family without compromising privacy. The multiple fenced paddocks with laneway system, two operational bores, and year-round spring-fed dam mean the land is usable immediately rather than requiring years of development. For a buyer seeking a working rural property rather than a lifestyle block, this is competitively positioned for cattle, horses, or horticulture within minutes of Adelaide River. The main risk here is location-based liquidity—rural properties in Marrakai do not trade frequently, and a buyer should expect a longer hold period if capital growth is a goal. The seasonal Scott Creek and wet-season-only flow patterns also mean water security depends entirely on the bores and dam during the dry, so bore maintenance costs are non-negotiable. On the opportunity side, the existing infrastructure—particularly the workshop shed and concrete bays—could support a small agribusiness or contracting operation that offsets holding costs. The property last transacted in 2020 at a significantly lower figure, so the current price reflects improved infrastructure rather than land appreciation alone. Hold this property as a working farm or income-producing rural holding, not as a speculative land play.
