Portion 98 – diesel depot & development opportunity

Established 8,565 m2 Property with Approved Diesel Depot, Solar Power, Borehole & Future Development Potential

An exceptional and versatile property offering a rare combination of residential accommodation, commercial infrastructure, established gardens and significant development potential.

Situated with convenient access to R511 Beethoven Street and La Camargue Road, Portion 98 comprises approximately 8,565 m2 and presents an outstanding opportunity for an investor or owner looking for an established property with an approved Diesel Depot and additional development possibilities.

APPROVED DIESEL DEPOT

One of the property's key features is the Diesel Depot Approval obtained in November 2025, following an extensive 7-year approval process.

The approval allows for up to 80,000 litres of diesel storage capacity, with a purpose-built platform already constructed to accommodate one diesel storage tank.

The property also provides substantial space and infrastructure for future commercial development, including the potential to establish a truck stop on the third section of the property, subject to the required approvals.

RESIDENTIAL ACCOMMODATION

The property includes:

2 x one-bedroom houses

Burglar bars fitted to all windows and doors

Paved areas and established lawns surrounding the houses

1 x office with a full bathroom and kitchenette, which could also be utilised as a one-bedroom flat/apartment

Secure residential section separated from the depot by a steel fence

GARAGES, STORAGE & PARKING

Additional improvements include:

Double lock-up garage

3 x storage facilities

Steel carport accommodating 2 vehicles

Main entrance gate fitted with a motor

Separate lockable steel gate providing secure access to the residential area

One of the existing storage structures, together with the covered area previously used for Aquaponics farming, will require demolition due to its proximity to the boundary fence for commercial-property requirements. The structure was originally erected by the previous owner in approximately 1940 and was approved for the property.

SOLAR & BACK-UP POWER

The property is equipped with a substantial Victron solar power system, designed to comfortably meet the current electricity requirements.

The system includes:

23 solar panels

8 kVA Victron system

Lithium batteries

Colour display panel monitoring power generation and available capacity

Generator backup

There is also an electrical cable running to the boundary fence which is currently not connected. Should the new owner wish to make use of this connection, all connection costs will be for the new owner's account.

WATER INFRASTRUCTURE

The property has an established water system comprising:

Borehole

2 x 10,000-litre water storage tanks

2 x centrifugal pumps

One for household use

One for garden use

Aquamat water softener connected to the water supply serving both one-bedroom houses

15 garden water points/taps

Water purifier installed at the sink in House No. 2

A borehole certificate will be required and will be obtained at the new owner's cost.

HOT WATER SYSTEMS

The property is equipped with multiple hot-water systems, including:

3 x gas geysers

1 x conventional electric geyser

The electric geyser has never been required for normal use, as the gas geysers provide sufficient hot water.

ESTABLISHED FRUIT & NUT TREES

The property also features an established garden with approximately 39 fruit and nut trees.

Many of the fruit trees have already produced fruit for a second consecutive season, adding to the property's established agricultural and lifestyle appeal.

SECURITY & PROPERTY LAYOUT

The property is divided into three clearly defined sections, providing excellent separation between the residential, depot and additional development areas.

Security features include:

Steel fencing separating the houses from the depot

Palisade fencing with barbed wire separating the depot from the third section

Boundary screen/wall approximately 2.2–2.4 metres high in certain sections

Burglar bars on all residential windows and doors

Secure lockable residential gate accessible from both inside and outside

Main motorised entrance gate

Exterior lighting controlled by day/night switches

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL

The third section provides valuable additional space and presents an opportunity for future development, including the potential for a truck stop, subject to municipal and regulatory approvals.

The combination of an approved Diesel Depot, large land component, existing infrastructure, independent residential accommodation, substantial power and water systems, and strategic road access makes this a particularly versatile property.

A RARE COMMERCIAL INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

Portion 98 offers a unique opportunity to acquire an established property with Diesel Depot Approval that took seven years to obtain, together with residential accommodation, extensive backup infrastructure and substantial future development potential.

With its 8,565 m2 land size, 80,000-litre storage approval, existing diesel tank platform, solar and generator backup, borehole and water storage, secure layout and potential truck-stop development area, this property is ideally suited to an investor, fuel-related operator, logistics business or entrepreneur looking to develop a multi-purpose commercial property.

Containers currently on the property will be removed.
