Want to live out your farming dreams in the midst of Gauteng’s pulsating wild heart? This small farm of some 21ha is your absolute winner. Located on the eastern boundary of the Dinokeng Game Reserve (DGR), within the gates but not part of the Big 5 fenced area. The DGR is easily accessible and a mere 30min drive from Pretoria. Conceptualised during the mid-90’s the DGR is now a fully-fledged Big 5 reserve after the recent introduction of black rhino and spotted hyena. Crocodiles have begun to colonise some of the streams and dams. The DGR is also fast becoming one of the most popular wildlife destinations in Gauteng. Enjoy early morning bushwalks, go on a game drive in the DGR or simply enjoy the crackling of your fire at dusk. Have it all – and only a stone’s throw from all the amenities of city life.
Combine your love for farming and wildlife. To paraphrase...

Combine your love for farming and wildlife. To paraphrase Shakespeare – the question is to farm or to game lodge? Aye, that indeed it is the question. An ideal opportunity to farm organically and sustainably and make these not just catch phrases but your daily reality. Farm already subdivided into camps for future livestock farming. Plant moringa trees and establish pastures of Eragrostis (tef) grass as a part of a feedlot system. Strong borehole will provide ample water supply for irrigation purposes. Farming not your cup of tea? Well then exploit the increasing post-covid popularity of the DGR and establish your own game lodge – the homestead with its 6 bedrooms and upper-level entertainment area can put you well on your way without ruining your wallet.
Double storey, 6-bedroom farmstead with the living areas on the ground level whilst upstairs the spacious entertainment area with built-in braai, bar and 6 guest toilets with vanities. The living areas are roomy and flows easily into each other. Master bedroom with tile floors, en-suite batroom with bath, shower, toilet and vanity. Kitchen with wooden cabinetry, scullery, pantry and laundry. Boma/braai with splash pool. Granny flat with private boma but needs a bit of TLC.
Beautifully landscaped garden with manicured lawns and extensive irrigation. Security day/night lights. Boreholes (x2, only one is equipped), septic tanks, storerooms, small abattoir with walk-in cold room. Specific farm implements included. Farm is fully fenced, electric gates.
