This 43-hectare farm (previously well known for its farming and medicinal carrot production) offers an excellent opportunity as an investment in agriculture, small-scale farming, or tourism.
The property is ideally located, close to the Magalies Freeway and the R104, just 10 minutes’ drive away from Jasmyn - a well-known fruit and vegetable market in the Hartbeespoort Dam area. The land also supports the establishment of a small agri-village, combining residential units with farming activities for a sustainable lifestyle community.
There are various options for small-scale farming, allowing the new owner to diversify and develop different agricultural activities or multiple ventures. With its rich, fertile soil, five boreholes (one equipped) and mineral-rich water, the property offers strong farming probabilities.
The land offers excellent potential for small scale traditional crop farming and is also ideally suited for tunnel farming or cultivation under shade netting. There is more than enough opportunity and water to re-establish the orange and pecan orchards.
A Water-Use licence issued by the Department of Water Affairs and Foresty, authorising the abstraction of 14,700 cubic metres of water per annum is in place. This, together with a subsurface irrigation system (TLC required) and fed by two covered irrigation reservoirs, provide a good foundation for future farming activities. The property also offers a large, well build shed and warehouse that can be used for storing implements or growing mediums.
Beyond traditional farming, the size and layout of the property create strong potential for a lodge or guesthouse development, taking advantage of its peaceful rural setting and proximity to popular amenities. Parts of the gorge area could be developed for tourism, accommodation, or hospitality purposes, opening the door to something truly special.
The farm does need some attention and care, but with the right vision and investment, it has the potential to be restored to its former glory. Whether your dream is agriculture, tourism, hospitality or a combination of all three, this property offers a blank canvas with plenty of opportunity to create something special
