CALEDON / NAPIER: SMALL SCALE FARM IN BEAUTIFUL FARMING ENVIRONMENT

This 22-hectare lifestyle farm is situated in a typical Rûens wheat farming area halfway between Caledon and Napier.

Here one can get a daily dose of pure unpolluted air, pure water, farm fresh eggs, fruit from various trees and vegetables grown around the house.

The fencing consists of 4 inner camps planted with medics, lucerne and grasses. These newly erected 1.8 metre welded mesh perimeter and inner fences are in good repair and a huge asset to the farm. There are water troughs in every inner camp.

Water usage rights are registered with the Overberg Municipality (Theewaterskloof Irrigation Scheme) at 5 cubic metres per day. Two potential spots have been pinpointed, as being the best for drilling boreholes for irrigation water. There are also 4 storage earth dams that get filled with runoff water after a good rainfall.

Accommodation infrastructure consists of a main 270 square metre house with 4 bedrooms, of which is a loft bedroom with sliding door, overlooking the vast farming areas. There are 2 bathrooms, a large open plan living and kitchen area, pantry, scullery, laundry and 3 garages with roller doors. Below the house are large storage areas. This house needs repair and renovations.

Two cottages are newly built. One 65-square metre cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, an open-plan kitchen and living area. The second cottage of 80-square metres has the same layoutbut is fitted with solar. Two JoJo storage tanks supply an abundance of water from roof runoff to the houses.

Farming infrastructure consists of a completed 400 square metre livestock underroof pens. The storage shed, office, as well as the double story staff quarter and poultry coops still to be completed. No solar is installed at these buildings.

The main house is fitted with solar panels and an inverter supplying electricity. There is no Eskom supply on the farm.

Given the fact that a substantial income can be realized on a small working farm, together with the excellent location, fertile soil, quality water and a private, safe, and secure area, this property offers a unique lifestyle.

If you are looking for a unique destination that provides a healthy lifestyle with exquisite panoramic views of vast wheat fields, valleys, and sky – this would be it!
