22.3 ha Smallholding in Pietermaritzburg Central

3 3 7 22.3 ha 201 m²

This remarkable 22-hectare small holding in Ottos Bluff presents an exceptional opportunity to embrace country living at its finest. Nestled in the sought-after area neighboring Albert Falls dam, this property boasts a large, contemporary home and expansive grounds, offering a serene and picturesque lifestyle.

The main dwelling is a modern masterpiece, featuring three spacious bedrooms, two of which are en-suite, all adorned with elegant tiles and equipped with the latest fittings. The heart of the home, the kitchen and scullery, is a dream come true for any housewife, boasting both gas and electrical fittings for ultimate convenience and efficiency.

Stepping into the generously sized lounge, you'll be greeted by the warm ambiance of a gas fireplace, creating the perfect atmosphere for cozy gatherings and relaxation. From the veranda, you'll be able to take in breathtaking views of the meticulously manicured gardens and a private dam, adding a touch of tranquility to your daily life.

The entire building is constructed from face brick, ensuring low maintenance and durability. For added security, the perimeter of the home, garage, and workshop is enclosed by an electric fence, which is linked to monitoring systems in the house, complemented by security cameras and a dedicated security watch for peace of mind.

One of the most striking features of this property is its eco-friendly approach. It operates completely off the grid, powered by an 8kva solar inverter combined with 24 solar panels and a 15kw lithium battery power bank, ensuring a reliable and sustainable power supply. Additionally, a 16kw backup generator is in place to provide extra assurance during prolonged periods of limited sunlight. The use of solar and gas geysers further reduces energy consumption and minimizes the property's environmental impact.

Water supply is equally self-sufficient, sourced from a 3500-liter-per-hour borehole with a storage tank and pressure pump. The presence of an Eskom transformer on the premises allows for reconnection to the grid if desired, providing flexibility in power options.

The farm area is fully game-fenced, allowing Blessbuckk, Impala, and Nyla to roam freely and adding an element of natural beauty to the landscape.

This exceptional property is a true gem in the countryside, offering a harmonious blend of luxury, sustainability, and natural beauty.
