Unleash Your Wild Side: Exceptional Game Farm for Sale
3259,6091 ha

This beautiful Kalahari farm is located approximately 75 kilometers from Kathu Airport, a strategic town in the Northern Cape. Kathu is surrounded by multiple mines, while the farming community also contributes significantly to the local economy. Notably, the area is renowned for its exceptional grazing lands, supporting both cattle and sheep farming, as well as game farms.
During the past 2 years, the farm has undergone a successful conversion to a game farm, now boasting a diverse range of game species, offering ample opportunities for wildlife enthusiasts and investors alike.
A new game fence, erected during 2023-2024, complies with the Department of Environment's game fencing regulations, ensuring the secure and safe management of the game population. The fence is about 40 kilometres in length and 2.4 meters in height. It features a robust design with 20 lines, including bonnix and fox/stock proofing at the bottom, and is dug into the ground to prevent digging and escape.
The outer perimeter of the fence is equipped with three electric lines, requiring connection to a solar-powered energizer to ensure effective deterrence against predators and prevent escape.
The homestead and storage facilities are powered by a sustainable 3-phase 20kW solar power system, with an Eskom connection available as a backup, although currently not in use.
The farm's water infrastructure has been significantly upgraded, with water now sourced from the Kalahari-East Water pipeline, two newly drilled boreholes, and a refurbished windmill. Over 17 kilometres of new water pipes were laid during 2023-2024, and multiple game drinking troughs were constructed. The farm is serviced by three dams, two of which were built during 2023, and features eight 5000-liter water tanks, ensuring a reliable water supply for both livestock and game.
The farm's grazing lands are in optimal condition, providing high-quality forage for livestock and game. Featuring a diverse landscape of mixed grasses and small bushveld, this versatile terrain is well-suited for cattle, small stock, and game farming.
The farm also boasts a rich variety of indigenous vegetation, including native trees, shrubs, and grasses, as well as Sand Yellow Wood trees and Grey Camel Thorn trees, which contribute to the farm's ecological diversity and beauty.
