Sole Mandate
When self-sufficiency is what you are after, look no further, this is for you! With your own water, electricity, veggie patch, and the potential for domestic animals, sheep, horses, cattle and chickens. This lifestyle farm already provides a range of different income streams, from selling their very popular, high-quality Lucerne, to sought after self-catering accommodation and monthly rentals. Most important though, is this special property, at the same time, provides the sought after quality lifestyle, which Montagu is so popular for. Potential for domestic animals, sheep, horses, cattle and chickens. Pastures are already fenced into different camps, with its own irrigation. An existing greenhouse for herbs and veggies, can be expanded if you so wish. Not too busy, but providing ample opportunities, making money out of the Lucerne and renting out the cottages.
Near town, easy access
pastures divided into camps, with perimeter fencing
Not only can it brag with 4 Ha (the equivalent of 28 MILLION LITRES per annum!) of the very popular C.B.R. Montagu Irrigation Scheme water, free household water from a crystal-clear mountain spring, it also has a borehole, equipped with a submersible pump, providing around 7500 Litres per hour.
The best news yet, is their own Solar PV plant which generates its own Electricity! This plant generates 3KW electricity and the excess is pumped back into the Eskom grid, reducing the electricity bill dramatically! Even pumping water, is at a reduced cost.
The beautiful, farm-style residence is well planned, well maintained and tastefully decorated. It has 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, kitchen, open plan lounge/dining room and outside entertainment area with a braai and swimming pool. Close to this dwelling is a Guest Room with bathroom facilities and the potential to be converted into another income generating cottage.
Other cottages include an upmarket second dwelling with 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, a lovely thatched attic, large enough to sleep two people and has a fitted kitchen, open plan living area and veranda with outside braai. The views are spectacular! Come see for yourself.
A charming thatched, self-catering cottage (sleeps four), is being rented out for a handsome additional income. Just to add to the potential of this farm is a Labourers' cottage, needing the final touches to become yet another self-catering unit, currently being used as a free-range chicken coop.
Other outbuildings are the tandem garages, workshop, storeroom combination, a tractor shed and a very large enclosed barn measuring 10m x 40m. This 400m² barn is in need of attention, but the structure is solid and it can be converted into stables, greenhouse, hydroponics or whatever you dream of. Not to mention the water cooled eco-friendly cold room for keeping fresh produce cool.
Located at an elevation of 378 meters above sea level, Montagu has a Mid-latitude desert climate. The district's yearly temperature is 19.23ºC (66.61ºF) and it is -1.99% lower than South Africa's averages.
