Rare island with its own airstrip and barge hits the market
One of Australia’s most unique and tightly held real estate assets has officially hit the market for the first time in 17 years.
The Toogoom Island Portfolio totals nearly 70-acres of Island living with acreage freedom.
‘Toogoom Island’ a spectacular 57-acre secluded freehold island and its 12-acre mainland dry block on the Fraser Coast, is being offered in an exclusive combined portfolio campaign via RWC Pacific Group Director and Head of Sales Jackson Rameau and Sales Agent Matt Taylor.
As a deceased estate portfolio sale, this rare multi-property listing represents a true legacy asset and is a “once in a generation” opportunity for adventure buyers, luxury lifestyle investors, and eco-tourism developers.
The island boasts a 900-metre aircraft runway, a concrete helicopter landing pad for seamless fly-in, fly-out access and a barge on both wet-block island and its accompanied dry block.
The estate also features two large, off-grid accommodation dwellings joined by a central hub family entertaining area, and deep-water jetty infrastructure.
“It’s a genuine, one-of-a-kind opportunity,” Mr Rameau said.
“Freehold islands and remote style properties simply don’t trade often in Australia, let alone something this accessible. And certainly not with this level of infrastructure, accessibility, and proximity to Brisbane, Gold Coast and K’gari Island. ”
Located just a three hour drive north of Brisbane and 15 minutes from the thriving hub of Hervey Bay, the estate sits in the heart of one of Queensland’s fastest growing coastal communities.
The asset features a dual-property blueprint, which includes a separate freehold mainland holding that functions as a logistics hub or additional home for the island. The mainland base provides secure storage and effortless transportation of family members, vehicles, machines and supplies to and from the island.
Matt Taylor of Ray White Main Beach highlights the immense commercial and lifestyle potential of the estate.
“From the private airstrip to the waterfront mainland residence, it’s ready for immediate enjoyment or strategic redevelopment into a tourism or eco-retreat venture,” Mr Taylor said.
The island is fully equipped for immediate off-grid living, powered by two 30KW solar systems, a 12kVA backup generator, and an approximate 390,000-litre water tank capacity.
Mr Rameau said the Island represents the ultimate private sanctuary to create a multi-generational family empire.
“As a deceased estate, this one will change hands from one beautiful family to most likely another,” Mr Rameau said.
“If your family loves boating, camping, fishing, dirt bikes, and watersports, imagine being able to do all of this on your own island with gold-star accommodation.”
