1,209Ha Farm For Sale in Vaalwater
Escape to your very own slice of bushveld paradise with this exceptional 1209-hectare private game reserve, offered as a going concern and sold fully furnished – lock, stock, and barrel. Just a short drive from Vaalwater and 240km from Pretoria, this well-established property is a rare opportunity to own a piece of pristine African wilderness with income-generating potential.
The natural beauty of the farm is truly breathtaking – a landscape of unspoiled bushveld, rolling hills, and wide-open skies. Scattered across the reserve are seven beautifully designed, self-catering lodges that sleep a total of 52 guests, with individual units accommodating between 2 and 19 people. Each unit offers comfort, privacy, and a close connection to nature. A private boma and function venue with its own kitchen can host up to 50 guests, making this ideal for events, retreats, or intimate gatherings.
A unique rock pool nestled among natural boulders provides a communal space to cool off and take in the stunning surroundings. Some of the units also have their own private swimming pools for added exclusivity. The main house is a sanctuary of its own, featuring three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms (including a main en suite), and a large open-plan living area that flows out onto a covered patio with a private swimming pool and sweeping views over the bushveld. Every bedroom opens directly to the outdoors, letting nature in at every turn.
Sustainability and independence are key features, with the main house and two other units running completely off-grid on solar power. The farm is supported by five boreholes (two equipped), including a primary solar-powered borehole with a 1.1kVA pump. Water is abundant, with a large earth dam attracting game, as well as additional strategically placed waterholes across the property.
The game population is diverse and includes giraffe, kudu, eland, blesbuck, impala, wildebeest, waterbuck, zebra, warthog, hartebeest, bushbuck, and more. For the hunting enthusiast, there’s a butchery and cold room facility that, while in need of a little TLC, offers excellent potential. However, the current owners do not hunt, and these facilities are seldom used.
Operational ease is supported by a laundry facility and ample storerooms. Adding to its value, this farm is surrounded by a large, private Big 5 reserve, enhancing its privacy, security, and appeal as a luxury bush getaway or eco-tourism venture.
Opportunities like this are rare. Whether you're looking to run a high-end lodge, a private retreat, or simply invest in a truly unique property, this game reserve has it all. Contact me today for more information or to arrange a private viewing.
