This exceptional 400-hectare game lodge, game farm, and caravan park is strategically located directly next to the N4 Platinum Highway between Moedwil and Swartruggens, ensuring excellent accessibility, visibility, and tourism potential. The entire farm is enclosed with 2.2m high, 21-strand game fencing, making it ideal for game breeding, eco-tourism, and hospitality operations.

The property is a fully established, income-generating concern and is sold as a going operation. A monthly income of approximately R17,000 is generated from an MTN tower. Electricity supply is highly reliable, with two Eskom transformers (±R3,500 per month combined) and low monthly usage costs, supplemented by a very large 3-phase solar system and a 50kVA diesel generator for uninterrupted power.

Accommodation and guest facilities are extensive and well developed. The fully furnished lodge includes a large entertainment area with kitchen, bathrooms, storage, and a sleeper-wood bar, supported by a 19m x 12m wooden deck and furniture, cutlery, and linen for up to 120 guests. Six well-appointed chalets accommodate up to 28 guests. The caravan park offers 10 ablution facilities and four sculleries, as well as separate laundry facilities with an external bathroom. Three boma areas cater for late-night entertainment, one of which includes a tuck shop/bar. A swimming pool and children’s play park further enhance the guest experience.

Residential infrastructure includes a very spacious main house with four bedrooms, four en-suite bathrooms, guest toilet, study, walk-in safe, double garage, and a large open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area opening onto a wooden deck with breathtaking views. Additional features include a scullery, pantry, laundry, and outside toilet. A second house offers an open-plan lounge and kitchen, glass-enclosed patio, one en-suite bedroom, guest bathroom, large pantry, loft (ideal as a study or second bedroom), and a built-in braai.

Operational buildings include a large brick-built shed currently used as a workshop with covered parking for approximately 10 vehicles, a second brick shed providing parking for four vehicles and wood storage, and an additional sink shed used exclusively as a workshop. Domestic quarters accommodate three workers. Water is supplied by five boreholes ranging from 60m to 133m deep, of which two are equipped, one with a submersible pump for household use and one with a windmill for cattle.

The property boasts well-maintained, low-maintenance gardens with more than 20 varieties of fruit trees. Game included in the sale features an impressive variety of plains game, including Blesbuck, Eland, Waterbuck, Kudu, Impala, Blue Wildebeest, Red Hartebeest, Ribbok, Bushbuck, as well as smaller game and natural predators.

With its prime location, extensive infrastructure, established income streams, and comprehensive inclusions of furniture, vehicles, implements, and selected butchery equipment, this is a rare and highly versatile investment opportunity with multiple business possibilities.
