It features several buildings, including a main house, three separate chalets, an ablution facility, and an entertainment building. The property boasts a beautiful view of the large, lush garden, feedlot, and agricultural fields. Although the main house is currently undergoing renovations, the three chalets are available as additional guest rooms with their bathrooms.

The property has a reliable water supply from 3 boreholes and domestic canal water, with three water supply points. The boreholes are equipped with electrical pumps and provide water at a rate of 5000L/h to 11,000L/h, depending on the depth of the borehole, which ranges from 16m to 34m.
