27.7 ha Farm in Cato Ridge

With the pending kick off of the Cato Ridge Dry Port project and the private Hibiscus hospital already completed, there are exciting plans in the pipeline for the Cato Ridge area with major sports and entertainment centers, warehousing and business parks. Located next to the future Inland Container Terminal and near another logistics company''s depot, the property is only 3 km from the N3 highway, making it a prime location for both residential and farming purposes.
