Lot 107 Leichhardt Highway

The property is about 380 km north‑west of Brisbane, 300 km west of Maryborough, 261 km south‑west of Rockhampton and roughly 302 km from Toowoomba.

Lot 107 is situated on the Leichhardt Highway, which runs north‑south through Taroom, and the Roma‑Taroom Road joins the highway from the south‑west, providing easy access to surrounding districts.

Greyhound Australia runs a long‑distance coach service that stops in Taroom on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for the Rockhampton‑bound route, with the return Toowoomba service stopping on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Taroom Airport, located about 20 km south‑east of town, handles private and emergency aircraft.

Taroom sits on the banks of the Dawson River and has experienced several major floods (1890, 1956, 1983, 2010), with flood‑height markers placed at the town’s northern entrance. While the current William Harold Copeland bridge was built above normal flood level, closures can still occur during significant flood events.

Nearby amenities include the Banana Shire Council library on Yaldwyn Street, a rare restored Steel Wings windmill on the Dawson River, and Gilbert’s Lookout on Kelman Street offering panoramic views. The town also features heritage sites such as the Leichhardt Tree and the Glebe Homestead.

Taroom hosts a range of annual events, including the New Year Races in January, the St Patrick’s Day campdraft in March, the Golden Horse Shoe campdraft in April, the Agricultural Show in May, a fishing competition at Glebe Weir in June, a rodeo in July, the Leichhardt Festival and Spring Races in September, and the Polocrosse Carnival later in the year.
