FANTASTIC COUNTRY FARMING OPPORTUNITY WITH WATER RIGHTS AND MAJESTIC VIEWS
Joint Mandate This 70ha farm, consisting of 2 portions, is nestled just outside Wellington towards Ceres and is a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in the beauty of country living and farming. The farm is rich in pasture and sits along the Berg River, offering abundant water and making it ideally suited for farming and livestock.
The property features a fully enclosed solar farm with 8 tables, a 16KVA Sun system, 4 batteries and an inverter. The solar farm is connected to the pump system, which has new pumps, motors and suction pipes and is easily movable when the river overflows. An Irrigation Board is in place on both portions, with approximately 15–20ha of the farm currently under sprinkler irrigation, powered by hydraulic pumps. The system could easily be automated. No Eskom power is currently used for this operation, although there is a three-phase connection available for an easy changeover.
The farm offers two well-designed, very large stores. One store is brand new and is currently used for intensive sheep farming, with an undercover cement area that includes a dedicated handling facility for working the sheep and 96 lambing pens housed inside. The farm currently is fully operational and a very successful sheep farm. Livestock and farm equipment/assets are optional and are not included in the asking price. The second storeroom is spacious and offers separate offices/storerooms, a previously used cool room and a cheese room. Attached to this warehouse is a very neat, fully equipped one-bedroom flatlet with a bathroom, lounge and kitchen, as well as a separate one-bedroom unit with a bathroom.
At the highest point of this magnificent property is a beautiful and spacious two-bedroom manor house with two bathrooms, a lovely loft area, a large living and kitchen area, and a sunroom with breathtaking panoramic views. There are also 3 separate cottages, each with its own bathroom. In between the house and cottages is a large sparkling pool and an outside entertainment area equipped with a pizza oven. The house area with magnificent mountain views is fully fenced and has its own inverter system.
The property presents an exceptional opportunity for someone looking for an established farming operation with strong infrastructure, abundant water, irrigation and renewable energy already in place. Asking price excluding Vat. Call agent to arrange a viewing.
