Located on the Burnett River at South Kolan, 50-acre Platypus Park is a haven for wildlife, with its sale dubbed a “once in a lifetime” opportunity by Queensland Sotheby’s agents Michael Vettoretto and Lynn Malone.

“Perfect for multi-generational families, it provides endless possibilities for adventure and outdoor activities,” the listing says.

And those outdoor activities include swimming in the freshwater pool, collecting fresh mangoes from the 400-tree orchards, kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, strolling through the rainforest and lazing in the creeks, and fishing.
