10.5 ha Farm in Swellendam
Just off the scenic R60 Wine Route and located around 12 kilometres from the popular town of Swellendam in the Overberg district in the Western Cape of South Africa, this small farm with a big heart awaits its new owner with a vision. Get away from city life and escape to the country, the best move you will ever make!
Close enough to town for leisurely shopping but away from the hustle and bustle of busy city life, your own weekend retreat. The magnificent views, continuously changing in colour, inspired artists for centuries. Great neighbours and an easy access road to the farm situated on the water rich side of the Langeberg mountain.
There are two buildings and a pump house on the property, in different stages of renovation. The space under-roof of more than 300 square meters consists of an open plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with two bedrooms and a bathroom, all in process of being renovated. The kitchen has been fitted with some new appliances and the bathroom is also a work in progress. A solar geyser has been installed.
The arable land on the farm has been divided in three separate blocks to make irrigation easy. The soil is good and fertile. The major produce in the past were black berries for a number of years and the soil is good for cash crops like veggies, berries, Lusern etc. An estimated 4.5 hectares of the 10 hectares farm is arable land. Mother-lines are already installed for connection of irrigation sprinklers. The rest of the farm has sufficient areas for grazing, making animal farming an option.
The supply of mountain water of around 19 000 cubic litres (19 000 000L) per annum, flowing into two holding dams, is a registered shared water source. The mountain water originates from a crystal clear mountain spring, up in the mountain catchment area.
Electricity supply of 3-phase with 60 Amps.
