22.1 ha Farm in Cullinan and Surrounds

This expansive 22-hectare farm, discreetly situated near a renowned 5-star lodge, stands as a remarkable find, encompassing a sought-after wedding venue, game farm, and flourishing bass farms. Its distinctive feature lies in a natural spring, a life-sustaining water source benefiting neighboring properties. As the saying goes, Where there is water, there is life, evident in the lush green lawns, mature trees, and a striking presence of 200 fully matured pecan nut trees. These substantial trees, bearing fruit for 27 years and sold to a reputable exporter, resonate with the sweet sound of prosperity.

The 200 pecan nut trees, comprising four distinct cultivars - Barton, Bester, Pawnee, and Ukalinga, yield a bountiful harvest every July, supplying a prominent local exporter.

For those seeking a picturesque weekend retreat near Pretoria, the farm offers camping spots with six private bathrooms, complete with showers, toilets, and basins. A tranquil dam, fed by the natural spring and seepage water, creates an ideal setting for catch-and-release fishing or, as the Afrikaans saying goes, Lyntjie nat maak. This presents a second income-generating opportunity on the farm.

Atop the mountain, there''s a small airstrip suitable for microlight aircraft. A road leads from the farm to the mountaintop, perfect for mountain biking and off-road adventures.

The property boasts three well-maintained houses: two of which are occupied by the owner and their family, while the third serves as a cottage occasionally rented out for a relaxing getaway.

The main house features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious double-length garage, a heated swimming pool with a cover, a generous entertainment area with a pool table, a custom-built study, a dining room, and a kitchen with bespoke cabinets. Notably, all exterior wooden sliding doors and windows are crafted from Nlulu wood (iron-embedded frames), and the kitchen boasts marble countertops, under-counter space for appliances, a pantry, and a gas stove. The house is predominantly floored with tile and laminate, and its custom-made cabinets and bookcases are a testament to exceptional craftsmanship. The study features a stunning large built-in bookcase with glass, and the oversized desk with four roomy drawers was also custom-built. A charming rustic atmosphere is created in the TV room with unique wallpaper, and the hand-painted dining room cabinets add character. The house utilizes a septic tank and French drain system.
