Stunning agricultural Jewel in the Eastern Kalahari
Stunning agricultural Jewel in the Eastern Kalahari
Introduction:
Discover a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained farm located in the Eastern Kalahari, near Deben, Kathu in the Northern Cape. The same family cherished this exceptional property for over 120 years, embodying a history of successful management and dedication. Comprised of two easily manageable parcels, with a combined size of 2,140.9 hectares, this farm is a true gem that harmonizes traditional farming practices with modern infrastructure and environmental stewardship.
Farm information:
The farm’s outstanding features begin with its rich vegetation, which boasts a highly favorable livestock carrying capacity (LSU) of 1:13. This thriving ecosystem is nurtured through 25 well-designed camp systems that facilitate efficient management and enhance the quality of the grazing land. The landscape comprises gentle soils enriched with pioneer grasses typical of the Kalahari, alongside an impressive array of camel thorn trees that punctuate the horizon. The breathtaking vistas, adorned with various trees such as Shepherd trees, Blinkblaar-wag-'n-bietjie (Buffalo Thorn), and Grey Camelthorn, create a stunning natural backdrop.
Ease of access is another benefit of this property; the farm is largely free of dunes, making it accessible without the need for a 4x4 vehicle. The annual rainfall ranges from 250mm to 350mm, supporting a sustainable farming operation. All fencing is meticulously maintained, featuring jackal-proof parameters to safeguard livestock. Farm A boasts 8 camps with standard height fencing, while Farm B has 17 camps, enhancing security and versatility. Corner fencing is reinforced with stronger steel wire for increased stability, particularly beneficial for cattle and game management. The farm includes two game camps, one enclosed with 1.8m fencing and another with 2.4m game fencing, catering to various wildlife. Each camp is equipped with easy access to drinking water from three boreholes, which collectively yield 18,000 to 22,000 liters per hour at a depth of around 100m. These boreholes are expertly interconnected to optimize water distribution, with solar and submersible pumps ensuring reliability. Infrastructure like cattle handling and loading facilities constructed from durable metal piping provide a neat and efficient operational environment. The layout and quality of the vegetation position this property perfectly as both a cattle and game farm. Its proximity to other established game farms offers the potential for lucrative agricultural endeavors or the development of an upscale game lodge catering to a discerning clientele.
Housing is well accounted for, featuring a spacious homestead alongside two additional worker houses and two enclosed sheds. The property also boasts a substantial solar system, valued at R500,000, which includes impressive components such as two 8KW Sun Sync inverters, a lithium battery bank, and 26 solar panels, ensuring energy efficiency and sustainability.
Animals included:
80 x Gemsbok (Oryx)
100 x Springbok
17 x Livingstone eland (Taurotragus oryx)
10 x Blesbok (Blesbuck)
6 x Rooibok (Impala)

With its captivating views and well-thought-out farming layout, this property offers a ready-to-go farming enterprise for the astute buyer.
