Whether you’re seeking a productive livestock farm, a serene retreat surrounded by natural beauty, or a recreational haven with access to both river and ocean, this exceptional property offers endless possibilities for rural living at its finest.

Nestled amidst the stunning landscapes of Vleesbaai and Gouritsmond, this expansive farm offers a unique opportunity to embrace the tranquility of rural living while enjoying proximity to coastal delights. Encompassing a total of 198 hectares, the property boasts a diverse landscape that includes vast open pastures, a portion of the renowned Voëlvlei, and stretches into the majestic mountains to the north, providing a picturesque setting for a variety of pursuits.

Of the total land area, approximately 133 hectares consist of level, open pastures, meticulously maintained and divided into 15 livestock camps by neat, well-maintained fences. These camps provide ample space for grazing and rotational farming practices, ensuring optimal management of livestock and land resources. Three livestock handling facilities, strategically located across the property, offer convenience and efficiency for animal management, while numerous water tanks with a combined storage capacity of 90,000 liters ensure a reliable water supply for livestock throughout the year.

One of the most notable features of the farm is its prime location along the banks of the Gouritz River, boasting 540 meters of riverfrontage just 14 kilometers from the ocean. This proximity to both freshwater and saltwater ecosystems presents a wealth of recreational opportunities, from fishing and boating to birdwatching and leisurely riverside strolls.

Water security is further enhanced by three boreholes, one of which has been tested to yield an impressive 10,000 liters per hour, while the other two offer additional water sources yet to be volume tested. Powered by solar energy, these boreholes provide a sustainable and reliable water supply, with the option for connection to nearby Eskom electricity infrastructure for added convenience.

The farm’s proximity to Voëlvlei, a renowned floodplain cherished by birdwatchers, adds to its appeal as a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Surrounded by farmlands, this wetland ecosystem supports a diverse array of water birds and waders, offering endless opportunities for exploration and appreciation of nature’s beauty.
