Excellent opportunity for the budding Cattle farmer! 42ha with grazing, lots of water, farmhouse, plenty of sheds, cattle handling facilities and more! This beautiful farm just about 5 km out of Bronkhorstspruit has an electrified fence on three sides with a perennial fountain stream and marshlands covering the fourth side. The open areas are divided into 21ha grazing, 12ha arable lands, 5ha planted Smutsfinger grass and 7ha previously ploughed land.
Cattle handling facilities consist of a livestock enclosure with a crush to handle branding as well as a loading ramp. Some of the wooden poles were damaged by a recent veld-fire.
Chicken coops that can handle 600 chickens (jackal-proofed) are still being used.
Crystal clear fountain water from the perennial fountain is pumped to the house,
concrete dam, garden and water cribs for the livestock. Water is pumped by a windmill, a borehole with submersible pump (7500 l/hr) and an extra submersible pump in the fountain.
A farmhouse with 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one en-suite), big kitchen with gas stove and gas geyser, two big lounges and a dining room gives ample living space for a big family. Eskom power is available but at the moment the house and sheds/workshops are serviced by two separate 5kW Solar systems. (Batteries might need attention) A huge 5 x 10m lockup double garage will sort out the parking needs for the family vehicles.
Two 5 x 5m open sheds plus another 5 x 5m tool room / workshop supplies ample space for a busy hands-on farmer.
Close to town yet far enough to get the country living feeling!
