Nestled between the Orange River, farmlands, and the canal, neatly tucked away on the urban edge, you are blissfully unaware that you live in a neighborhood whilst still enjoying all the comfort of being within 2km of all major attractions and within the delivery radius of all retail services.

This family home is perfect for a family wanting to step into a lifestyle environment where you decide how self-sustainable you want to be, while still having easy access to learning & recreational centers, as well as shopping and service centers.

The water-cooled main dwelling consists of 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms (2 en-suite), 2 living areas, one of which is an open plan kitchen, dining, braai, and tv room with separate scullery and pantry as well as double garages with a floor space totaling 50.6 m2 and an office/workshop with facilities. 2 of the bedrooms easily close off with a separate entrance, bathroom and kitchenette which can be used as an independent guest area without limiting the living space of the main house. The floor space of the main dwelling totals 443.4m2

The property has a second dwelling / flat consisting of 2 en-suite rooms with an open-plan kitchen, and dining area which flows into a braai and living room inclusive of air-conditioning in both rooms. The second dwelling has a double carport, as well as its own garages, one of which is currently used as an exercise area with a bathroom which can be kept separate from a rental agreement to allow for storage for the main house. The floor space of the second dwelling totals 116.2m2

The house is surrounded by multiple lawns, leading into different garden areas ranging from a swimming area with a built outdoor braai area, flowing from the main house’s living space with a wraparound lawn with 7 mature pecan nut trees, to a play area with large wooden jungle gyms and seating area before moving into the farmland. The garden is a blend of water-wise and evergreen flowering plants to ensure feature points all year round.

The farmland consists of a single garage flowing into an old worker's cottage currently converted into a chicken coop, with a floor space totaling 57.1m2. The separately fenced area consists of three additional covered pen/camp areas, one of which contains 4 smaller pens to keep newborns and moms separate from the larger herd. An additional open-roofed camp with 2 separate gates is ready for vegetation planting with a large compost heap before leading into the main plantation of 20 medium to mature pecan nut trees, all of which are under irrigation which draws from canal water rights.

The property has a wide variety of fruit trees ranging from olives, pecan nuts, figs, quince, mango, plums, apricots, different citrus, granadilla, and more, all currently for self-use. The Garden is predominantly under irrigation, with selected areas under flood irrigation from the canal which is linked to both the irrigation and traditional flood irrigation system with a total of 3 pumps over the property.

The property is equipped with a solar system to adequately sustain the household during the day, and it is sufficient for load shedding at night. The property has residential pump rights from the canal as well as separate irrigation rights for agricultural use and has a separate borehole(5000lt/hr on current setup) which is operable, but a filter system is recommended prior to pushing the water to the house/irrigation. For security, the property is fully fenced and has a 16-camera Hikvision system and an alarm system.

A lovely family home and a perfect blend between urban and self-sustaining smallholding living.
