Exclusive Mandate - A lifestyle farm

Exclusive Mandate - This 133-hectare farm in the Eastern Cape is all about living in nature. Though it could be a cattle, dairy, health, wind, or guest farm, it remained a peaceful, non-commercial private Nature Reserve completely enclosed by game fences.

It is home to some 25 blesbok, about 10 impala, and a few other species like bushbuck and duiker. There are so many bird species, amphibians, reptiles in the valley and even fish in the river. And there is lush vegetation, and in the yard around the houses, there are olive, avocado and other fruit trees, with ample opportunity to grow your own vegetables. This farm is a place where man, animal and nature connect in a way seldomly experienced in modern life. You may call it "serene," it will definitely help you to redefine your being.

There are three modest but well-maintained mid-sized houses, each with modern bathrooms and kitchens, and with a total of 250m² living area. The main house dates back to around 1840. The original ceilings, a combination of yellow wood and Oregon pine, remain in excellent condition. The same applies to the beautiful door frames, doors, hinges, and locks. One of the houses, next to the main house, can be used as a separate, well-equipped guest cottage with an elevated view towards the Seekoei river valley. It surely will captivate your guests, whether family or friends.

This building also houses a cold room/butchery, laundry room, workshop, storeroom, loft, and a double garage. Main house and the guest cottage in the valley enjoy most privacy. The third house, 300m apart on the hill, is located closer to the farm’s entrance and can potentially serve as a guardian’s or caretakers home. The present tenants have offered to stay on in such a function.

All three houses are completely off the grid. There are solar panels, a borehole and a dam for water supply. All buildings are well connected to the world by Internet. The farm is self-sufficient and it is deeply enclosed by nature and the peace that comes with it.

The present owners, originally from Germany, fell in love with the farm’s unique setting after they had settled in St. Francis Bay for a while. They bought this place in 2002. After a challenging period of renovating and building, they decided to move there permanently, and spent the next 23 years on this farm. Still today they are enthusiastic about its privacy, beauty, and the sustainable lifestyle it offers.

This farm is ideal for someone who appreciates nature, values privacy, and loves the simplicity of rural life in a comfortable setting. It's about quality of life and the joy of living in harmony with the land. A buyer who loves such a life, and perhaps has a feeling for the practical aspects of farm life will find it the perfect fit.

All reasonable offers will be considered.
