An exceptional opportunity for property developers, land investors and high-net-worth investors seeking strategic development land in Midrand.

This substantial ±29-hectare agricultural holding in Glen Austin, Midrand combines existing income-producing residential and professional-use improvements, multiple boreholes, a natural wetland and dam environment, and significant long-term development potential.

Positioned within the wider Midrand and Waterfall growth corridor, it offers significant scale and flexibility for an experienced investor.

Located in Glen Austin Agricultural Holdings, the property offers the country lifestyle and open space of a large farm while remaining connected to the wider Midrand metropolitan area, with access to major roads, shopping centres, schools, medical facilities and business districts.

A key attraction is the existing income-producing infrastructure.

Potential rental income includes two 1-bedroom flats at approximately R10,000 per month, the main house at approximately R10,000, church premises at approximately R5,000, a 1-bedroom rondavel at approximately R20,000, 5-bedroom accommodation at approximately R8,000 and a dental/medical practice at approximately R40,000 per month.

Rental figures, occupancy and lease arrangements remain subject to verification and purchaser due diligence.

The main residence comprises two bedrooms, a study, one bathroom, lounge and kitchen, with three covered carports. Additional accommodation includes two 1-bedroom houses, each with a bathroom and kitchen, a separate 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom house and a 1-bedroom rondavel. The dental/medical facility includes reception, multiple rooms, kitchens and bathrooms.

Water infrastructure includes three boreholes across the property and an additional borehole serving the rondavel area. Borehole registrations, yields and water-use rights should be independently verified.

The property’s natural wetland and dam environment creates an attractive country setting, particularly during the rainy season. This could potentially support boutique accommodation, conferencing, weddings and events, equestrian facilities or recreational trails, subject to environmental and municipal approvals.

For developers and land investors, the property’s scale creates long-term opportunity.

The current zoning is Agricultural, and the property comprises multiple title deeds with ownership held through individual and trust structures. Any future subdivision, rezoning, increased density or alternative land use would require professional town-planning, environmental, engineering, municipal and statutory approvals.

The property is not being represented as an approved residential development. Instead, it offers a suitably capitalised developer or land investor the opportunity to investigate its highest and best future use.

Potential concepts could include a lifestyle estate, boutique lodge, equestrian destination, conference and retreat facility or nature-based accommodation, subject to approvals. The existing wetland and 100-year flood-line area must form part of any future development assessment.

It is a substantial Glen Austin landholding and investment opportunity combining land, existing improvements, rental-income potential, water infrastructure, natural amenities and long-term development optionality.

It offers an experienced developer the opportunity to investigate its future potential while providing a land investor with substantial land and existing income-producing improvements.
