Life-style/Commercial Farm within a Prime Region

This is one of the most sought after locations in the district offering magnificent views of the iconic Compassberg to the north, Naudesberg to the east, Toorberg to the west and on a clear day, Cockscomb to the south. It is not your typical Karoo farm as it has an exceptionally high rainfall of +600mm, lending itself to a very good grazing capacity. It is ideally located just 48km from the historic town of Graaff-Reinet. The electronic gate access to only three other farms makes it extremely private and secure.

The sprawling 5-bedroom old Cape Dutch homestead is set within a parkland garden which extends to the pastures and rolling hills. Outbuildings include a shearing shed, ram shed, implement shed, garages and all the necessary workshops and storerooms. The numerous out-buildings create an opportunity to be converted into farm-holiday accommodation. The buildings...

The scenic topography consisting of undulating mountain plateaus and valleys, magnified by a majestic waterfall, epitomizes the serene splendor of this property.

General vegetation incorporates a dense cover of mixed sweet and sour veld, predominantly Themeda (Rooigras), and a variety of cool season grasses. A number of indigenous trees, namely Wild Olive, White Stinkwood, Kiepersol and Acacia add to the ambience of this farm.

A good road infrastructure provides access to most parts of the farm and would be ideal for 4x4 or quad bike enthusiasts. The farm has a well-planned fencing layout comprising 70 veld camps all with a permanent water supply. In addition to this is 15ha of registered irrigation under a permaset system divided into 28 paddocks. Another 40ha of dry lands divided into 18 paddocks can be planted to annual crops or perennial grasses. The pastures are enhanced by magnificent old oak and willow trees.

The official stocking rate for the farm is 1LSU:7ha but the present owner has maintained a stocking rate of 1LSU:5ha for many years as a result of a well-organized grazing strategy. In the past, this farm was home to a top Merino Stud and more recently a well-known Dohne-Merino Stud. The farm is presently stocked with sheep and cattle. Naturally occurring game include kudu, rhebok, klipspringer, steenbok and duiker. Eland would also thrive here.

This versatile farm offers a unique life-style opportunity or a viable commercial venture.
