673 ha Farm in Humansdorp

Well preserved 673 hectare farm for sale in the northern area of the Humansdorp district, close to the Kouga river and Baviaanskloof National Park. The farm consists of a mix of dry land, natural grazing, valleys and mountains. Part of the farm is game fenced, but the rest has normal fencing for sheep and cattle farming.

Grazing capacity on the farm, provided the 90 hectares dry lands are fully functional, could be an estimated 1000 ewes. This provides an economic unit to the prospective buyer. Since the farm is in a high rainfall area, dams and fountains provide a sustainable supply of water for livestock as well as for the household.

Water is extracted by solar pump, delivering 15000 litres per hour. It is pumped to a high lying reservoir, from which the troughs on the lands as well as the needs of the farmstead is provisioned by gravitation.

The farmstead, i.e. the homestead, outbuildings, cold storage and battery system for hatching of eggs produced by free range chickens, are all supplied with Eskom power. The present solar energy system could, however, be expanded to go completely off the grid.

Water sources could be further developed for irrigation purposes.

The renovated farmhouse has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, large living quarters, well-appointed kitchen and scullery, and with a large entertainment area under a veranda.

The farm has huge potential for 4x4 and mountain biking trails.

An inventory of movable assets that might be included in the price, will be supplied to qualifying buyers.
