The Willows sells at auction.

Nutrien’s selling agent James Sides described the recent property sale at Carrathool as “exceptional.”

The 1,192 hectare grazing holding ‘The Willows’ went under the hammer at Carrathool Hotel recently and attracted seven registered bidders.

“The competition  was upbeat and competitive with the final result being an outstanding sale price of $1.77 million,” Mr Sides told The Riverine Grazier.

The result translates to a sales price of $1,484 per hectare or $601 per acre.

The Henwood family of Coleambally were the successful bidders.

The Henwoods are a well-known farming family in the region, running both beef and cropping operations across the Riverina, including 40,469-hectare Howlong Station, near Carrathool.
