Clairview Island - 660 acres of rare freehold island with aircraft
Private Islands is proud to present Clairview Island, a 267-hectare (660-acre) freehold semi-tropical property featuring 7 km of absolute beachfront. Located approximately halfway between Mackay and Rockhampton, Clairview Island currently serves as a cattle property and a family fishing retreat. Comes with its own Cessna 182 aircraft - see photos below.
The island's owner discovered Clairview Island during his flights from Caboolture to the Whitsundays and recognised its potential for both fishing and elite cattle grazing. Eventually purchasing the island, the owner and his family have enjoyed its exclusive location, ocean views, and year-round magnificent weather.
One of the key attractions of Clairview Island is its freehold status, offering greater flexibility for development compared to leasehold properties. The island is divided into five separate titles, allowing for the potential sale to different buyers or development as a private retreat. Permits would be required for any development, but the property allows for the immediate construction of up to five new homes, each with a caretaker’s residence, potentially totalling ten beachfront homes.
Clairview Island boasts a large estuary system separating it from the mainland, teeming with mud crabs and barramundi, making it an excellent fishing destination. Access to the island is available by boat, light aircraft, or helicopter, with two directional private airstrips approved by the Department of Natural Resources, and a large two-aircraft hangar. A cosy beach cottage on Lot 5 offers short-term accommodation for fishing trips.
A mega amount of crabs caught in all the estuaries of the island - see photos.
Property is perfect for horses and cattle - acres and acres of trails and beaches to gallop away.
The island includes partial fencing and all necessary farming equipment, such as tractors, slashers, buggies, and a Cessna 182 aircraft. The rest of the island remains undeveloped, ready for a new owner to bring fresh ideas for development or to enjoy as a family retreat.
Clairview Island is situated on the Pacific Ocean, between Rockhampton and Mackay, and is subdivided into five separate allotments available for individual or combined sale, depending on your needs. The lot sizes are as follows: Lot 1 - 40Ha, Lot 2 - 40Ha, Lot 3 - 52Ha, Lot 4 - 45Ha, and Lot 5 - 88.67Ha.
We are offering this unique freehold island, complete with a Cessna 182 and all farming equipment, for $4.9M. Please review the accompanying photos and videos and contact me directly to arrange a personal inspection of Clairview Island.
