R34,000,000 | 115.90Ha Farm For Sale in Wellington Rural

This 115-hectare farm is elevated against the slopes of the Groenberg, offering breathtaking views towards the Limietberg to the north-east and across the surrounding farmlands in the valley to the west. The setting is secluded and peaceful, where the clear sounds of nature and abundant birdlife create an atmosphere of tranquillity. The farm rises along the Groenberg slopes, which become steeper higher up and are covered with natural vegetation, including proteas and, in places, wild buchu.


Water
A natural spring in a mountain ravine provides a constant supply of clean water that flows gently down a small stream. This water feeds two large earth dams further down the slope, as well as a substantial concrete reservoir. From this reservoir, the olive orchards are irrigated by gravity at approximately 3-bar pressure. Both the dams and the reservoir remain full throughout the year.


Production
The grassy hills support groups of dairy goats that graze in separate camps, each with its own fenced shelter. Their diet is supplemented with lucerne, barley and oat hay, as well as feed pellets. The milk from approximately 300–400 goats is collected twice daily in a modern, electronically equipped dairy, which forms the farm’s primary source of income.

Each goat is electronically identified during milking, with individual production data recorded and stored on computer. The dairy accommodates 24 goats at a time. Average production is approximately 3–4 litres of milk per goat per day. The milk is cooled and stored for the production of fresh milk, yoghurt, and both soft and matured cheeses.

The farm’s branded dairy products are supplied directly to several retailers, including Woolworths, Checkers, Spar, and others.

The olive orchards cover approximately 15 hectares and consist of two cultivars, Mission and Frantoio, all under drip irrigation. Olive oil products are also pressed, bottled, and distributed directly from the farm to retail clients.

A further 5 hectares of arable land are available for expanding production opportunities.


Infrastructure
The property includes a main residence, two additional houses, five cottages, and three spacious storage buildings.

The crown jewel of the farm is the impressive main house with its striking architecture. Built with thick, solid walls and a slate-tiled roof, the home remains in excellent condition. It features seven bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a spacious dining and living area, and a large kitchen. Exposed wooden beams and beautiful wooden floors add warmth and character to the interior. An additional outside room with a bathroom is also included. The house could not be fully inspected.

All buildings receive clean borehole water for domestic use.

Electricity is supplied by three-phase Eskom power, and a generator is available to supply electricity to the dairy facilities and the main residence when required.
The farm’s main entrance is secured with an electric gate.
