This 86-hectare pristine land known as Tweerivier Farm lies within the greater Southern Cederberg region. It is a private company and is totally designated to operating as a lifestyle farm.
Due to the absolute remote location the area is quiet, secure, and tucked into a beautiful valley, away from the main road (R303).
If you are looking for an exceptional, unique destination, providing an unblemished healthy lifestyle with exquisite panoramic views of mountains, valleys, and sky this would be it!
The farm is situated 84 kms road from Ceres, on a tarred road, and 25 kms of mostly gravel road from Citrusdal. Both towns provide medical, veterinarian and other commercial services. Op Die Berg, a quaint little shopping centre for general supplies, is 30 kms away.
A dedicated 2-hectare section equalling 25% shareholding of the 86-hectare total acreage known as Dankbaarheid, is offered for sale, and is unique in many special ways. It boasts a modern house, cottage, and lush flower garden, as well as a veggie garden.
The rest of the land is collectively owned by a total of four (4) members. The property has a fully-fledged constitution and is an affiliated member of the Twee Rivier Nature Reserve per this constitution. The other members, typically weekenders, include three professional individuals who are retired and have become good friends. The synergy is like-mindedness in appreciating and enjoying nature and preserving the pristine surrounds. Each of them owns a 2-hectare piece around their houses.
Only one (an adventurer who competes in the Cape to Rio yacht race) built a small cottage.
One of the rules is that no livestock may be kept on the land.
One of South Aricas most pristine rivers, the Middeldeur transverses the centre of the land for about one kilometre. Some pools are up to 5 metres deep. The river is a sanctuary to the endangered fish species Red Fingers (cheilodactylus fasciatus), Yellow fish, Bass and Trout. This is also a haven for the graceful Cape Leopard. Swimming, canoeing, relaxing at the banks of the river or hiking on a walking trail on top of the ridge to the top of the hill, all add to an exceptional lifestyle for owners and their visitors.
This lifestyle farm oozes serenity and oneness with nature in a secure, tranquil, unencumbered environment. You can breathe pure mountain air, drink pure spring water, eat farm fresh eggs and pick fruit from various trees around the house. Even yellowwood trees thrive in this terroir.
The Title Deed is endorsed as a Nature Reserve and is fully supported by WWF, Cape Nature, and Landcare.
Quality unpolluted water is provided via a pristine fountain feeding high elevated water tanks, from where it is distributed to the main house. Water tanks for the farmhouse holds 10 000 litres. Water for the gardens is pumped from the river, using a solar pump owned by one of the shareholders. The new owner would have to install his own pump, solar system and pipeline to the house.
The 236 square metre Main Residence consists of: Four (4) en-suite bedrooms One guest toilet Spacious main lounge and dining area with open fireplace Open plan kitchen and dining room study wine cellar with temperature-control.
A covered stoep overlooks the sparkling swimming pool, river, and panoramic views over mountains in the distance. The sale includes most of the furniture and small appliances. The farmstead is fully linked for WIFI, and cell phone reception is adequate.
A unique feature of the house is the German-produced, solar-based, underfloor heating system as well as the double-glazed composite doors and windows, that add to controlling the temperature. Each room can be heated separately. A security system is in place.
The 42square metre stone cottage consists of a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and living area. The spacious stoep is covered by a grape arbour and overlooks the lush garden.
The farmhouse and cottage are surrounded by magnificent established trees and vegetation and is literally an oasis. There are numerous fruit trees including citrus, fig, peach, apple, pear, and quince.
Additional building structures on the common area which is the extent of the property owned by the Company:
A communal fully fitted cottage, sleeps four, for use by the shareholders as and when needed. Every shareholder has access rights officially for 90 days per year
A braai area and splash pool
A cottage for the labourer working for the company
A small shed where all the equipment needed on the property is stored.
The labourer is reliable and extremely knowledgeable about the day-to-day handling of all aspects of the property. Take note that the next door neighbour pumps water from the river using a diesel engine during loadshedding and this causes a noise in the distance. No pumping occurs during nighttime.
Fire Protection: As a member of the Greater Cederberg Fire Protection Association, the property is fully compliant with fire breaks and trained labourers. The farm receives all the fire assistance, should it be required.
Asking price: The 25% share in the Company is for sale at R6,5 million, including several assets and agreements.
