2 ha Land available in Hogsback

A tucked-away gem in a prime location – this magical property is a rare find. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this 1,9-hectare property is a blank canvas waiting to be discovered.

The property starts at the end of Tor Doone Lane and slopes up to the left, gently at first before rising in a bolder koppie, flattening again and opening onto the fire break at the top and beyond the fire break stretch pine plantations and grasslands ensuring that no neighbours will ever infringe on the peace and tranquillity of this oasis. Left for years for pine trees and black wood to take over, the property has now been partially cleared revealing an ancient oak, a smattering of indigenous bush, and spectacular views across the Bluff and into the Tyume Valley towards Alice.

You can easily access Tor Doone and the Arboretum from the property, and for those who like to stretch their legs, Kettle Spout Water Fall, and the Auckland Forest are within range. Bushbuck, genets, and other small game are present and the forests attract regular visits from endangered Cape Parrots. Set above the snow line, the land will be transformed by the regular winter snowfall.

Water (sourced from a clear mountain stream) and Eskom electricity connections are available, or you can set yourself up for an independent life off-grid. Build your dream home tucked away at the bottom or with an eagle's nest view from the top, in amongst the large boulders that make this property truly magical.

Tor Doone Lane is a unique cul-de-sac, with an active community that loves Hogsback deeply. Land in this secluded gem is hard to come by, and the quiet nature of the lane and the property’s private setting make this the perfect place to create your own wonderland, an off-grid homestead, or a forest cabin getaway in the woods.
