Boesmanland farm for sale

Boesmanland farm for sale.

This livestock farm of 6000ha (2 x title deeds) is available to buy in the Boesmanland in the Kenhardt district of the Northern Cape.
Bushmanland is a region in the Northern Cape, South Africa. The region stretches from Calvinia in the south to the Orange River in the north and east, Namaqualand in the west, and the Sak River and the Hartbees River in the east. The towns of Brandvlei , Pofadder, and Aggeneys, lie in Bushmanland. The landscape consists of extensive plains that are interrupted by insel mountains. The name of the region is derived from its former inhabitants, the Bushmen (San population group).

Bushmanland is an arid and dry area bordering Namaqualand. The soil is less fertile, and the groundwater has high salinity. The flora and fauna, although rare, are of great importance. Although the veld is too dry to bloom (as on the west coast of Namaqualand), the plants that emerge are unusual and often of breathtaking beauty.

This farm is about 120km southwest of Kakamas and 120km west of Kenhardt and 100km north of Brandvlei. This area is very isolated and private with almost no traffic on the local gravel roads. The farm with LSU of 1:45 is used for red meat production with Dorper and Meatmaster sheep the main breeds used. Although in a dryer area of the Northern Cape, the area has been successfully used over the past years to produce the highest quality meat.

The farm is subdivided into 29 camps. These smaller camps make management easy and can vegetation be managed very successfully. Water is supplied by 9 boreholes with windmills (3), a solar pump (1), and 4 boreholes not currently used. Of the 4 unused boreholes, 3 have strong water with the 4th not so much. This water is then stored in dams (6), earth dams (8), and water tanks (4). All camps have water access as water is distributed across the farm with about 15km of plastic piping. Vegetation consists of shrubs, succulents, and mixed grasses. The farm has 5 sheep-handling facilities. The game area (900ha) with a higher fence (1.8 m and 2.1m) is suitable for some common game. Only a small distance of the fence is not finished. Most fencing is in satisfactory condition with some maintenance needed at some places.

The property has a vacant house attached to the shed. This house is empty for over 12 years with some restoration needed if someone wants to make it a permanent residence. The building is however still in very good condition, a sign of good masonry. The house has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, living and dining rooms, an office, and an underground store room. The property has 2 sheds. One is connected to the house and the 2nd is a shed to store animal feeds.

The sale has no animals included and is VAT payable.
VAT must be added to the listing price.
