Operational Farm - A Haven of Outdoor Delights, Unavailable for Purchase

Nestled just 3.5 km from the heart of Ramsgate, this enchanting farm presents an ideal opportunity for a young family yearning to embrace the splendid outdoors as their expansive garden.

The focal point is a spacious main house boasting four bedrooms, accompanied by a generously sized swimming pool that invites relaxation and leisure.

Complementing the residence are two distinct two-bedroom flats, offering additional accommodation options for residents or guests.

The property features an array of outbuildings, including facilities designated for grain storage, a versatile workshop, and supplementary storage rooms to meet various needs.

Within a building comprising seven rooms, the hatchery finds its home, a space dedicated to nurturing the next generation of poultry.

A substantial 75m x 10m shed stands tall, providing shelter for thousands of indigenous poultry stock. Adjacent to this, a sprawling 600 square meter wall/shade cloth shed serves additional purposes.

Equipped with advanced amenities, the farm incorporates a fully-functional walk-in Setter that boasts a remarkable capacity of 28,512 eggs, alongside a corresponding Hatcher with a capacity of 19,008 eggs. This sophisticated setup includes six automated egg trolleys, each outfitted with a compressor.

Potential exists to hatch around 90 boxes of chickens on a weekly basis, contingent upon the fertility of the eggs themselves.

The farm prospers from the sale of chicks, each box containing 100 specimens and priced at R900.

Further enhancing operations, an Egg Grader is on hand to classify eggs into various sizes, catering to public preferences.

Practical additions encompass a manual plastic wrapping machine and a dependable Perkins diesel generator, standing ready to serve in times of need.

Water resources abound, featuring an earthen dam and a productive borehole with an estimated output of +2500 liters per hour (awaiting confirmation). In support, a pair of 5000-liter Jojo water tanks, complete with pressure pumps, provide a consistent water supply.

The land is thoughtfully cultivated, adorned with thriving banana trees and graced by 81 mature macadamia trees. An additional 463 young macadamia trees were introduced at the start of 2021, signifying a commitment to ongoing growth.

It's important to note that a leasing arrangement is in place for the bananas and macadamias, involving a 50% profit sharing agreement at the culmination of each year.
