Property Details
This 21.5-hectare farm is ideally located approximately 23 km west of Bokmakierie along the N1, between Louis Trichardt and Musina in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Nestled north of the Soutpansberg mountain range, the farm lies within a productive agricultural hub surrounded by successful irrigation farms, small-scale livestock operations, and lifestyle properties. The property is owned by a South African individual who is not VAT registered.
Infrastructure on the farm is well-established and supports a variety of agricultural activities. The main residence is a 150m² A-frame double-storey home featuring two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, pantry, and living room. It is complemented by a two-vehicle lock-up garage and an adjacent under-roof workshop. The home is surrounded by mature trees, lawn, and a garden, creating a pleasant homestead environment. Electricity is supplied via Eskom, and a strong 6,000 liters-per-hour water system, supported by a 50,000-liter reservoir, ensures a reliable supply for both crop irrigation and aquaculture.
A key feature of this farm is its operational Tilapia fish farming and processing facility. The aquaculture system includes a hatchery and recirculating setup that allows for both fingerling production and grow-out to marketable size. Five 100,000-liter grow-out dams support up to five harvest cycles per year, each producing approximately 6,000 fish or 3,000 kg (3 tonnes) per cycle. The ideal water temperature is supported by the area’s naturally warm climate, promotes rapid and healthy fish growth. Once harvested, the Tilapia are distributed via informal markets and local retailers. A well-designed 246m² processing plant with gender-separated ablution facilities supports this operation.
The farm also boasts a 2.6-hectare cash crop production unit. The region’s favorable climate allows for early, mid, and late-season harvests, often commanding premium prices. Common crops include butternut, pumpkins, patty pans, baby marrows, green beans, tomatoes, melons, okra, chilies, and peppers. The established irrigation infrastructure ensures consistent and productive planting cycles throughout the year.
The remaining 15 hectares consist of pristine Bushveld savannah, ideal for small-scale livestock farming, particularly goats. Existing infrastructure includes holding pens and lambing facilities. Workers are accommodated in eight rooms located separately from the main residence, ensuring privacy and operational efficiency. The entire property is enclosed by perimeter fencing, providing security and clearly defined boundaries. Overall, this well-developed farm offers a unique opportunity for integrated farming with a focus on aquaculture, crops, and livestock in a highly suitable and productive environment.
