Expect to be captivated by this 300 hectares of Karoo oasis, superbly located within a secluded green valley of the majestic Swartberg mountain range. This truly unique, versatile property offers loads of potential to be an income generator (tourism, farming), multi-family lifestyle farm, or spoil yourself by investing in a privileged lifestyle and avoid the hustle and bustle of city life.
Income is currently generated by lucern and sheep farming and a very lucrative lodge consisting of 7 luxurious self-catering country chalets. The property lends itself to further great potential to expand the tourism income leg into, for example, camping sites and a wedding venue. Established walking and biking trails are already making it very suitable as a family vacation destination.
The farm is completely off-grid with a sufficient solar system for all farming and tourism activities.
