R 16 850 000 | farm property for sale in malmesbury rural

Nearly the full 110 hectares are arable and can be established under winter grain/pasture crops. The property is currently utilised for wheat production and is well suited to incorporation into a crop rotation system. The elevated fields of this dryland cereal farm offer sweeping views towards Table Mountain in the distance and is ideally located in the sought-after Paardeberg area between Klipheuwel and Malmesbury. Owing to its strategic location, the farm provides quick and convenient access to agricultural services in Malmesbury, as well as towns such as Durbanville and Paarl, and Phesantekraal Airfield for air transport if required. Infrastructure The farming unit has no buildings; however, an Eskom power line runs across the property, offering the option of electrical supply. Water rights of 50,000 m³ per annum have been allocated to the farm, although these have not yet been utilised and the required infrastructure still needs to be developed. The property also features an earth dam and an adjacent concrete reservoir with a concrete drinking trough, which can be recommissioned to supply water for livestock. Production Expected wheat yields are in the region of 3 – 3.5 t/ha. Soil analyses are conducted for crop nutrition planning and are available for review. Soil Description The soils are predominantly derived from weathered Malmesbury shale and can be described as sandy to loamy, with the presence of koffieklip. Deeper sandy soils are found at the foot of the hills, while the higher-lying areas have slightly shallower soils with a notable clay content in the subsoil. Sale Information The land on offer is ideally suited to expanding an existing grain farming operation. The allocated water rights and the availability of electricity within reach have the potential to significantly broaden future farming options. For the discerning buyer who recognises the potential and strategic location of this property, the asking price is R16.85 million.
