The property you’re describing has excellent potential for various business opportunities. Here are some ideas for income generation and investment strategies:

1. Lodge and Hospitality Business
• Renovate and Reopen: Given its proximity to Kruger National Park and local attractions, renovating the property back into a lodge could be lucrative. Target tourists and safari enthusiasts.

• Eco-Tourism: Emphasize nature-based activities and experiences. Use the existing Macadamia trees and surrounding natural features to offer a unique experience, like guided farm or nature tours.

• Packages and Partnerships: Collaborate with local tour operators to offer comprehensive packages that include wildlife safaris, cultural experiences, and adventure activities.

2. Sawmill or Workshop Business

• Utilize the spacious land and outbuildings to establish a sawmill or truck depot. The site’s existing infrastructure (outbuildings, storerooms, and power supply) is suitable for industrial activities.

• Sub-Leasing Opportunities: Rent out parts of the workshop space to smaller businesses, like mechanics or carpenters.

3. Rental Income from Accommodation
• Short-term Rentals: Renovate the 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom house, and other rooms for use as guest accommodations for tourists. Advertise on platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com.

• Long-term Rentals: The 1-bedroom house and extra rooms could be rented out to workers, contractors, or local residents.

• Seasonal Rentals: During peak tourism periods, charge premium rates for visitors.

4. Event Venue

• Outdoor Events: With beautiful surroundings and ample space, consider hosting weddings, corporate events, or retreats. The pool and scenic views could add to the property’s appeal.

• Workshops and Retreats: Cater to niche groups, such as photographers, wellness retreats, or macadamia farm tours.

5. Agricultural Opportunities

• Expand the Macadamia Tree Cultivation: With 60 trees already planted, there’s potential to increase and sell nuts commercially.

• Farm Stays: Offer educational farm stays where guests learn about macadamia farming and water management.
6. Infrastructure and Utilities

• Water Management: The borehole and dams can support agricultural or hospitality projects. Ensuring the irrigation system is efficient will be crucial for sustainability.

• Equipped with a borehole water system with and ample water storage facilities in the form of dams on the property. (There is a cement dam as well as a ground dam on the property)

• 4 x 10000L Jojo tanks connected to houses and rooms.

• Power Supply: The 3 Phase Eskom power is ideal for high-energy operations like a sawmill or a workshop.
