Nettled in the Caversham valley, this 22,8ha of farm land is relatively flat, with kikuyu paddocks, 650 citrus trees, numerous different types of fruit trees, landscaped gardens around the house and extensive herb and vege gardens.
The house has 4 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms and a guest toilet. The kitchen, lounge and diningroom are all separate rooms, with a reading room which leads out onto the wraparound verahdah which encompasses 3 sides of the house giving ample space for the changes in the weather and making the most of the outdoors for braaiing or entertaining. The kitchen is a typical, spacious farm kitchen with the Aga stove providing heating throughout the year, either for cooking or creating a cozy space where the family can congregate.
There is a two bedroom, two bathroom cottage, totally separate from the main house. It is a spacious cottage with its own swimming pool and outside entertainment area.
The old Creamery has been converted into a shop which is part of the Lidgetton crafters Guild and an option would be to continue with this very rewarding project or alternatively, the space could be used for another enterprise. There are 10 stables, currently used as storage space and a further two are used as a sewing room, providing stock for the shop. There is also a workshop which is rented out.
Water is provided by the 2 functioning boreholes. There is 3 phase Eskom, between R8 to R12k per month, to run houses, pumps, pottery studio and a wood working studio.
This property provides many opportunities for an enthusiastic, get up and go purchaser. One definitely worth considering.
