Description

Standing on this farm makes you wonder if you are somewhere in Switzerland, rather than in South Africa. There are mountains, streams, and dams everywhere. Everything is lush and green, irrigation sprinklers are running on the grazing fields and the 200 cows are in heaven, snacking on delicious green pastures. These are dairy cows supplying Nestle on a daily basis.

This type of property, located in one of the most beautiful valleys you can find, which has been coming for 4 generations, almost never comes on the market.

This beautiful farm is located approximately 30 kilometers from Riversdale and 45 kilometers from Van Wyksdorp in a valley between two mountain ranges.

The rainfall is fairly spread throughout the year with early winter rains from March to July and early summer rains from October to December. The average rainfall per year is approximately 900mm.

Irrigation:

Water is registered with the Department of Water Affairs for the use of 650,000m³ of irrigation water per year from a perennial water ditch, and the storage of 125,000m³ of irrigation water in five earth dams.
There are streams and dams all over this farm that are used for the irrigation of the pastures.

There is about 53 Hectares of irrigated land which includes about 8 hectares of pear orchards under micro-irrigation supplying 200-300 tons of fruit per annum.

The majority of the farm is natural mountain land consisting mostly of exploitable fynbos veld which can be developed for the export market.

The main house is a huge 4 bedroom house with several extra lounges, braai rooms, etc as well as a pool.
The second main house is a 4 bedroom A-frame house and the third house is a basic 3 bedroom house.
There is also a big store room for tractors & implements, a milking parlour and 9 worker's houses.

This farm with its excellent and beautiful location makes it ideal for the development of a guest/holiday farm with walking, mountain bike and 4x4 routes.

Implements and dairy cattle are for sale extra and a complete inventory list is available for serious interested parties.

VAT is payable on advertised price.
