The camp includes communal areas suitable for both private use and commercial hunting operations.

MOVABLE ASSETS INCLUDED
A comprehensive list of movable assets is included in the sale, covering equipment used in the hunting camp, butchery, residences and general farm operations.

These assets contribute to the farm being sold as a fully operational going concern, allowing a new owner to continue operations without additional capital investment.

Key movable assets include equipment used in the hunting camp and butchery, farm implements, trailers, a tractor and a Land Cruiser game viewing vehicle. A detailed inventory of all movable assets included in the sale is available to serious buyers.

INVESTMENT PERSPECTIVE: PRICE PER HACTARE
At an asking price of R17 325 000 (excluding VAT) for approximately 850 hectares, the purchase price equates to approximately:
± R20 382 per hectare

Considering the farm is fully developed and operational, including wildlife populations, hunting infrastructure, accommodation facilities and slaughter and meat processing facilities, the property represents strong value within the current game farm market.
A purchaser is therefore acquiring not undeveloped land, but a complete and functioning wildlife enterprise where significant capital investment has already been made.
