Experience the allure of a farm lifestyle without the full-scale commitment! Nestled just 45 km from George Airport and a mere 23 km from Groot Brakrivier, this 7.5-hectare smallholding near Friemersheim offers a unique opportunity to embrace privacy, space, and sustainability. With its strategic location accessible via a 4.5 km gravel road, this property perfectly balances seclusion and convenience.
Property Overview
The terrain is predominantly natural grasslands interspersed with Taaibosch vegetation, creating a picturesque setting for both relaxation and small-scale farming. The property is thoughtfully divided into six camps, secured with 1.2-meter high, 5-strand fencing, ideal for livestock management.
Water Supply
Water resources are abundant and reliable. A robust 150-meter borehole, only three years old, delivers approximately 600 liters of water per hour with an impressive 85% fresh water yield. This water is pumped weekly into two 1,000-liter flow bins and distributed across the camps through natural gravity flow. Additionally, six 5,000-liter tanks harness rainwater from the expansive roof, supplying an extra 5,000-liter tank for effortless distribution to the main building.
Structures
The main building, constructed six years ago with durable brick and a sink roof, efficiently combines storage and living spaces. Inside, enjoy a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area leading to a large bedroom with an ensuite bathroom featuring a shower, toilet, and basin. An additional guest toilet is available alongside a versatile loft room that can serve as extra sleeping quarters or be adapted to include an upstairs bathroom. Storage needs are well-catered for with a dedicated area equipped with large doors for easy access to tools and farm essentials. The expansive outdoor deck wraps around two sides of the building, offering an ideal space for entertaining, complete with a built-in braai area.
Energy & Utilities
This property is designed for off-grid living with a fully sustainable 3kV solar system powering the borehole pump and entire building. The setup includes four solar panels, four lead-acid batteries, and AC conversion. Energy-efficient gas appliances—fridge, stove, and geyser—are all included in the sale. While the internet is not hardwired, cellular networks such as MTN provide excellent coverage in the area.
Included Equipment
A large Ford tractor, slasher, and a variety of tools and equipment are included to support your small-scale farming ventures.
