This farm is 230km from Cape Town, and 55km from Ceres on the route to the Cedar Mountains.A very scenic (semi-developed) 1215 ha farm in the fertile Koue Bokkeveld region of the Ceres district; a region which is well-known for the production of high-quality fruits and vegetables.This farm forms part of the Greater Cedarberg mountainous region, where sandstone rock formations often forms weird sculptures. Rock-art from the Khoi-San people, that in previous times roamed this area, can still be found on the farm.Lying at an altitude of 950m above sea-level, the farm receives an average rainfall of 350mm per year.This is by no means all the water that is available on the farm for usage, as the farm lies at the foot of the Champion Mountains. It is the first farm downstream on the Riet River with arable land. This river handles the drainage of a 10 000 hectare catchment area. Adjacent to this river crossing part of the farm, lies 450 hectare of deep virgin sandy loam soil waiting for planting.The current dam on this river holds about 180 000 cubic metres of water during the dry summer months; but the dam wall can easily be raised to hold more water. There are also two boreholes on the farm.Currently developed land is 40 hectares of old fields which is divided into fenced camps, and with a 1 km mainline for irrigation. The farm is divided into 6 large, inner camps; while three sides of the outer perimeter are fenced.Infrastructure is well-maintained and consists of a farmhouse, sheds, facilities for the handling of livestock and 3 labour cottages.Possibilities include full-scale commercial farming, lifestyle farming and recreational possibilities.With no land claims this is a real gem and is being sold as a going concern for R11 400 000. Price includes a bakkie, tractors, trailers, other farm and irrigation equipment as well as livestock (sheep and cattle)
