Embrace true bushveld ranching minutes from Louis Trichardt in Limpopo, close to the N1 and Air Force tar road; established livestock handling, two boreholes, and a four-bed, two-bath homestead.
Cattle, sheep, goats or game, this property fits the criteria.
Located in the Limpopo bushveld, it is a stones throw from the N1, and within 20 minutes of Louis Trichardt. On the Air Force access tar road, its location is ideal. The west side borders on the national railroad. The farm consists of two portions of similar size totaling 150 hectare.
The infrastructure for livestock consists of two sheep/goat sheds adjacent to the homestead. There are handling and loading facilities for this stock.
The house is a round brick and cement structure with corrugated roof. Spacious, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, a typical large farm kitchen, living room and dining room.
Outside buildings consist of two lock up garages and a lock up store/garage. The Servants quarters have two bedrooms with bathroom facilities.
Outside, as expected, there is a braai area with fire pit and seating. The owner has installed clear view fences and brick walls topped with an electric fence.
The farm is fenced on three sides with game fence and only the internal or Northern side is regular cattle fencing. Internally there are four cattle camps with watering points or troughs. The farm has two boreholes that provide sufficient water for domestic and animal needs. Besides this, there are four unused and unequipped boreholes.
Centrally there is a cattle handling facility with load ramp, head clamp and a large reservoir that is not used but is in good order.
In the past agriculture was practiced as there is a small dam, pump house and the vestiges of cleared land. Throughout, the bush is natural and at this time of the season awaits the summer rains.
The photographs show the farm as it 'transitions' from winter, the first rains converts this area within a fortnight to lush grassland. Carrying capacity on the farm depends on summer rains and currently there is a 75 head cattle herd, and small flocks of goats and sheep.
The property is frequented by transient game that enters from the North, Kudu, Impala, Bush pig and Warthog are frequent guests.
This property is ready to farm, the infrastructure is sound and in daily use, with careful stocking and a vigilant approach, it is and can be sustainable.
The neighbors are all involved in livestock farming, security is good with an active farm watch association.
Give this farm careful consideration, it has real potential.
