R 4 200 000 | farm property for sale in ceres

Few places boast a contrast of abundant water in the middle of such a dry landscape, like this property does! This 5 438-hectare farm is situated along the banks of the unpolluted, and seasonally volatile Doring River. The farm offers a variety of opportunities, mainly due to the river forming an integral part of any further development, in order to explore the full potential of the property. The farm exudes a great sense of closeness to nature and offers safety and security. If you would ever want to live remotely and tranquilly, this would be the ultimate! Situated about 150-km from the town of Ceres, of which only 35-km of road is tar, this is really a challenge to visit, but once there, the farm offers an opportunity to really escape from busy city life. The vast topography consists of a flat plateau landscape, and the farm itself is divided into 3 inner camps, that used to be a sheep and cattle farming operation in days gone by. There are still 2 boreholes fitted with the skeletons of old windmills; water for the game can still be obtained from the boreholes, using solar power. The vegetation is a good mixture of shrubs, little patches of grass, and different species of succulents which splash colour over the Karoo every spring. The Doring River traverses through the property for about 18-kilometres, flows during the rainy winter season, and reverts to large pools that have been known to dry up during the driest seasons. The harsh veldt and size of the property are ideal for springbok (a few of them roam the area) and gemsbok to enjoy a hunt during winter. There is no accommodation infrastructure available, except for a Wendy-house-like structure at the river, from where the views can hardly be found anywhere else. This farm offers the ideal lifestyle investment for nature lovers and conservationists at heart. For sale at R4,200 000 - this is a spot to recharge yourself!
