Farm for Sale in Uitenhage Central

Set inside the exquisite Groendal Wilderness Area, this is not a farm next to a nature reserve. It is a farm inside one! Breathtakingly beautiful, this fully off grid lifestyle property offers a priceless combination of privacy, documented environmental authorisation, and direct access to one of the Eastern Cape’s most protected fynbos landscapes. The largest holding on the farm, it features a well-appointed main residence and a self-contained guest cottage, as well as storage rooms, workshop, studio, and staff accommodation and ablutions. And the pièce de resistance? Ownership includes a 10% beneficial interest in the wider 299 hectare wilderness farm that borders the Groendal Nature Reserve. Everything about this property is exceptional, including its position: it sits entirely within the wilderness boundary, with uninterrupted views across the dam and surrounding mountains, and no neighbours upstream. The KwaZunga River lies about 400 metres from the house, with deep natural pools that are impervious to drought. The main house offers four bedrooms and three full bathrooms (two en suite), as well as a generous open plan living area with a river stone fireplace, a large kitchen with Smeg gas stove and pantry, and a wide covered deck with a plunge pool and built in braai. Just the right distance away is the guest suite. Comprising an open plan living area with river stone fireplace, two bathrooms, and a main bedroom with doors on to its own deck, plunge pool and built in braai, it’s a perfect, unobtrusive income-earner. Completely off-grid, the property is equipped with a 10kW solar system and generator backup, solar pumped river water at approximately 15 ? 000 litres per day, solar heated water with gas backup, and a septic tank with a French drain. Life here is defined by the spectacular setting, endless views, tranquillity, space and self sufficiency. Walks begin in the wilderness, the birdlife is abundant, and the evenings magical as they settle over the dam and mountains. And it’s all touched by the distinctive scent of fynbos: clean, warm and unmistakably wild.
