Property agent Jazz Cullen said she had been inundated with phone calls from people enquiring about the property.

“There is lots of interest because there is nothing like it comparable on the market,” Ms Cullen said.

“It is one of the most phenomenal properties I have ever seen on the Yeppoon market.

“It is pretty extraordinary.”

She said the interest was coming from across the country, with calls coming from Tasmania, Victoria and towns west of Rockhampton, including Alpha, Clermont and Monto.

She said the new owner could capitalise from the airfield with the possibility to expand.

Ms Cullen said the property was leased to Skydive Capricorn and a flight trainer but that it would be up to the buyer if that continued.

“It is up to the buyer at the end of the day but it would be nice to see it continued on,” she said.

The property boasts a five-bedroom homestead with a large shed, a three-bedroom cottage and 14 spelling yards with stables.
