Want to own a 20 h piece of land in the middle of nowhere?
The Klein Karoo is famous for its incredible beauty - visitors from all over the world stream annually to the Klein Karoo to experience its unique magic - so can you imagine the privilege of saying you own your own piece of land right in the heart of this worldwide renowned gem?
Not many can say they have a off-the-grid home a mere 250 meters away for the Gamka River, which snakes peacefully past the property and allows for great fishing, rowing and swimming in the natural pools the river offers.
When most people hear `off the grid' - a basic-necessity-home comes to mind, only just enough to sustain you.
But this farm proves to be the exact opposite, and can sustain you in style with state-of-the-art solar power, irrigation, an electric fence, Wi-Fi, a VOIP telephone system, a 6.5 kW generator, a garage that can house up to four vehicles, with water tanks to receive the rain-blessings from the Karoo Heavens.
The farmhouse features a stoep or verandah that hugs almost around the house, and is cool in the summer, yet protective during winter.
Enjoying sundowners whilst overlooking the Gamka River with the sun setting has never become this attractive!
Obviously a house built thoughtfully, the kitchen and bathrooms have been given so much personality and history in terms of incorporating the Klein Karoo into the house - Think pebbled walls and African-style ceilings.
With a house like this, of course concessions have been made for guests visiting and they can be housed just off the main house in their own out-of-Africa room with its own bathroom.
With the estate situated 7 km outside of Calitzdorp and with a 30 minute drive to Oudtshoorn and an hour from George, you will almost not believe it is this close to the outside world.
Whether you are a bird watcher, plant enthusiast, ambitious wine farmer or just a family man looking for a place you can call you and your families' own - very far away from the maddening crowd - then this place is definitely worth viewing.
