2 hrs from Johannesburg in the Limpopo bushveld, nestled amongst the big reserves of Mabalingwe, Mabula and Zebula is a family-oriented lifestyle game farm waiting to give the next family magical weekend experiences and holidays. A once in a life-time opportunity. This pristine, manageable, 186 ha game farm has an architect designed, simply furnished, off-grid, double level, 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom, family home situated in the middle of the bush with animals roaming freely. The farm is fully game fenced with 2 entrance gates and stocked with giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, kudu, impala, nyala and a myriad of smaller animals. More than 200 bird species have been recorded. With no predators it is safe for children to explore and learn the ways of nature as the owners’ family has done for the last 25 years. If you can bear to share the magic, there is great potential for Airbnb or equivalent.
The home is designed to be more ‘outside than inside’ with the front opening up completely, with 4 large double sliding doors, onto the entertainment area. Windows look out into the bush in all directions. The contemporary house is fully furnished. A large, open plan living/dining/kitchen with a central fireplace makes for convivial cooking sessions turning into great parties. The main bedroom is in its own wing with en-suite designer bathroom and separate office/study/nursery. It has an outside shower, and both the office and bathroom lead outside to a private viewing area. The other 3 bedrooms, 2 downstairs leading onto the entertainment deck and 1 upstairs leading onto a viewing deck allowing for wonderful sunset and game viewing, share the 2nd bathroom. Beyond the bottom deck, which rolls back smoothly to expose a splash pool (keeping both children and animals safe), is a screened lapa for wonderful evening braais. The generator shed is off to the side screened by trees.
300m away is a utility area with a barn, thatched lapa, thatched eco-loo with basin and shower and a small storeroom converted from the old cattle dip. This area makes a wonderful camp site and has been used for small school groups.
200m from this is a large seasonal dam which is the focus of summer activities. Welcoming animals and hikers alike, swim, canoe, sip cocktails on the raft and watch the sun go down, picnic under the trees or just enjoy the serene and tranquil atmosphere with the water birds.
The farm, roads and living spaces have been developed over the years along sound ecological principles with nature being the most important consideration. There are 2 very strong boreholes and water holes scattered in the veldt. Two generators provide electricity. Paraffin lamps for ambiance and light when the generator is off. The stove hob and freezer use Gas. A solar powered alarm system is linked to a security company. Strong cell signal. Furniture, canoe, raft and a Go Motor are sold with the property.
