Flanked by 2 mountains, this 2,486-hectare farm is blessed with a diverse topography which ranges from high mountains, secluded valleys, and 300-hectare arable land.
The farm consists of 2 title deeds. Take note that during the previous 30 years this farm has been developed from a typical Koue Bokkeveld-like farm to a lucrative farming operation with several large earth dams irrigating 84-hectares. About 24-hectares of the irrigating acreage is planted with lucerne. Irrigation water is obtained from 5 fitted boreholes with a capacity of 170,000-cub metre per hour. Application for the registration of the water usage rights have been submitted.
Various inner-camps are properly planned and the water supply is meaningfully spread over the farm for efficient veldt and fodder utilization.
The farming infrastructure for a farm of this nature is good. Currently the owner has toned down his farming operations and therefor the opportunity exists to revive this farm to its former glory or to transfer this farm into a sought-after game farm. In the mountainous areas the scenery is unbelievable.
About 300-hectares of the entire farm was utilized for grazing with sheep on pastures. The farm is a well-planned going concern with about 20 inner-camps. During the winter rainy season oats and medics can be planted, with established lucerne in some camps.
Due to the diversity of grazing and vegetation the carrying capacity is about 500 ewes. The shearing shed and sheep handling facilities are in good repair. Farms of this nature are seldom offered for sale and this farm offers the opportunity to an economically feasible farming operation and lends itself to the production of quality meat and wool.
Water is obtained from 3 windmills as well as 5 large earth dams, fed from the winter rains runoff. There are also smaller earth dams spread over the farm. All windmills and fencing are well kept due to proper maintenance.
It has numerous buildings, including a sound main homestead situated in a lush garden, as well as labourer cottages. These houses can easily be transformed into guest cottages.
Bearing in mind its excellent location, the ambiance from the elevated position of the houses, relatively close to all amenities, safe and secure location, it is quite different from what you would expect from this part of the Ceres district!
Different fynbos species are also to be found on the higher lying areas and some of the valleys are undisturbed fynbos veldt.
