A magnificent 2664ha (4 titles) mixed farm situated 18km from Cathcart, best suited as a mixed farming unit, although at present it is farmed with goats, sheep and cattle. The boundary is stock-fenced but does have game-fencing in certain sections. Game includes Kudu, Eland, Impala and Waterbuck.
The vegetation is diverse with magnificent mountain top summer grazing (carrying capacity 4ha/1LSU) consisting of open grass veld and three water pans that collect higher rainfall than the rest of the farm.
This property is rich in water fountains that provide water for dams and river alike. The Ntsikisi River plays an integral part as it meanders throughout the property. The farmer's commitment to sustainable farming practices ensures that the property remains fertile which can maintain
herds of livestock and game that thrive in this ecosystem. The condition of this property is magnificent, seldom have I seen such a proposition being offered to the market. The majority of this property has a carrying capacity of 6ha per 1LSU. There is 12ha of irrigation which is supplied from a dam (electric pump) and a solar system that pumps during the day.
As a game farm this property ticks many boxes. It has dams, rivers, grass veld and a diverse thicket that is ideally suited for many game species.
There are two houses on the property, the main house is a 4-bedroom, 2 bathroom with a lounge, dining room, kitchen, scullery and entertainment area with an enclosed braai set in an established garden and a single bed flat. There are numerous outside buildings utilized for storage, garaging, workshops as well as other sheds utilized for storage for lucerne grass bails, shearing shed, farm vehicles and equipment. This whole area is off the grid and runs off solar and battery inverter system.
The second house is another 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house set in an established garden on another part of the farm that is reliant on Eskom power.
