Farm zum Kauf in Nottingham Road Mooi River

Two adjacent farms being sold together/apart with various buying options available.

Nestled in the Natal Midlands, where Heaven meets Earth is the perfect way to describe this property. Two large farms combine into a vast expanse of land a little shy of 1 ha. Pristine countryside, fresh air, fresh water, beautiful homes, welcoming venues & breath taking views in a working farm environment which creates a true sanctuary for the spirit. A place to breathe a little deeper.
With its stunning views of the Drakensberg & high view-points that allow for 360 views over the farm, the property is ideal for scenic hikes, trail running, mountain biking, horse riding, bird watching, quad biking & viewing of its small range of diverse wildlife.

Having the Mooi river, flowing through +/- 8km of both properties, there is ample water. Not only does this ensure rich, fertile soil, but it also offers irrigation rights, bottle-able natural spring water & some of the best trout fishing in the country. The abundance of water has led to the building of 5 dams which ensures a lucrative return on investment with regards to land irrigation for grazing availability as well as trout fishing that draws fly fishing enthusiasts from all over the world. Stocked annually, the dams have generated worldwide interest through profuse TV & magazine coverage.
The original farm buildings still stand at various points along the farm. They have been re-loved into timeless spaces conjuring up feelings of warmth, comfort & luxury with a touch of the modern feel that weaves itself through this farm, and when a wedding moves in for the weekend, there is no mistaking the feeling of romance that permeates the entire property as well as the photos.

With all the above, it's hard to believe that the property is not only a commercial property ripe with potential for Agri-Tourism initiatives, but that it is first & foremost a working farm, boasting some of the best Angus Cattle in the country, an on sight Cheesery, a growing heard of milk goats, roaming pigs, forestry & various other initiatives and has massive potential for horse studs and natural water bottling.
