This unique farm of 1007 hectares is a rare find, as it is an excellent cattle farm with some of the best grazing in the area and an abundance of water including the Lakenvlei stream. The boundary fence is partially game fenced and is in good condition. The farm is divided into 20 fenced camps. Well-defined tracks throughout provide easy access to most of the areas on the farm. There are approximately 150 hectares of arable lands which are currently planted with eragrostis and maize.

The old farm stead originates from the 1850s, with stone walls and barn, that have been preserved and still forms part of the cattle handling facilities. The renovated, stone homestead can be utilized as a restaurant or coffee shop and has business rights, with easy access off the R540. Additional accommodation includes two timber frame houses, both with two bedrooms, plus a five-bedroom house.
