Fattoria Barberton

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the renowned Barberton Valley, this exceptional 40-hectare macadamia farm offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational agricultural enterprise combined with outstanding residential infrastructure and lifestyle appeal.

The farm features approximately 29 hectares of established macadamia orchards comprising an estimated 11,650 trees. The orchards are predominantly planted with sought-after A4 and N2 cultivars, complemented by a smaller percentage of Beaumont trees. Significant investment has been made in orchard development, with all ridges professionally ripped, cross-ripped, and formed to maximize root development, drainage, and long-term production potential.

Reliable Water Infrastructure

Water security is ensured through two productive boreholes:

Domestic borehole delivering approximately 2,500 litres per hour, supplying drinking water through a storage tank and pump system.
Irrigation borehole producing approximately 11,600 litres per hour.

The irrigation system is supported by a substantial 250,000-litre Dam Sak reservoir, which is filled directly from the irrigation borehole and serves as the primary water storage source for orchard irrigation.

A low-pressure drip irrigation system has been installed throughout the orchards, with dripper lines positioned on every ridge to ensure efficient and cost-effective water distribution.

Residential dwellings all furnished.
