Situated in the scenic Balgowan valley, this charming 42-hectare farm features the Indezi River flowing through its landscape.
The property is securely fenced, with an electric fence surrounding the house. Additionally, there is a fully alarmed workshop on the premises.
The house features a kitchen equipped with a gas/electric oven, a lounge with a combustion fireplace, and an outdoor patio area complete with a braai and dining space for relaxation. On the upper level, a spacious loft area serves as guest accommodation, capable of comfortably fitting a double bed and several single beds. This space could be transformed into two separate rooms, utilized for storage, or adapted for various other purposes. It is bright, airy, and inviting.
An external office is also present. The house is constructed of brick, and all floors are concreted, ensuring low maintenance throughout.
Of the total area, 14 hectares are arable and designated for irrigation from the river. An additional 14 hectares consist of dry land, yielding approximately 500 hay bales annually from kikuyu, oats, teff, eragrostis, and veld grass. The relatively flat terrain is well-suited for livestock grazing.
The residence operates entirely off the grid, equipped with solar power generated by eight panels and a 5 kW inverter, along with gas geysers and cooking facilities. A 25 kVA backup generator is also available. Although there is an Eskom connection, it is currently inactive but can be easily reestablished. A borehole supplies potable water at a rate of 4,800 liters per hour.
