Farm in the heart of Balgowan, Howick

In the heart of the Midlands, properties that balance lifestyle and genuine farming potential are rare. This exceptional farm offers both – a productive agricultural enterprise and a comfortable, character-filled home – all just minutes from the Balgowan/Curry’s Post off-ramp on the N3.

The Homestead

Off-grid, self-sufficient, and thoughtfully designed for modern country living.

• 3 Bedrooms – including a generous open-plan loft with potential to add another bedroom and bathroom upstairs.
• Insulated comfort – polished, sealed concrete floors and well-insulated loft ceilings keep the home naturally temperate.
• Farmhouse kitchen – fitted with wooden counters, built-in cupboards, prep sink, and free-standing gas oven.
• Lounge & verandas – cozy wood-burning fire place, stacking doors opening to an enclosed entertainment veranda with built-in braai, flowing seamlessly to an open veranda.
• Bedrooms & bathrooms – main bedroom ensuite with access to the veranda, plus an additional bathroom off the kitchen.
• Extras – a study opening off the back veranda and a separate scullery/laundry.
• Garden-to-table living – established orchard (stone fruit, citrus, figs) and a covered vegetable tunnel.

Outbuildings

• Large partially enclosed shed/workshop.
• Converted dairy (storage use now, but easily reverted). Includes staff room with shower, toilet, and basin.
• Additional separate staff quarters positioned apart from the main buildings.

The Land

A working farm with water, infrastructure, and versatility.

• Long river frontage on the Indezi River plus 3 dams.
• Two centre pivots and dragline irrigation.
• Registered water rights.
• Kikuyu pastures and fenced paddocks.
• Arable lands historically used for maize and hay production.

Whether your vision is livestock, cropping, or mixed farming, the infrastructure is already in place.
