331-Hectare Working Farm near St Francis Bay and Humansdorp, Eastern Cape

Overview
A substantial farm of approximately 331 hectares offering scale, versatility and an outstanding position in the sought-after Kouga district of the Eastern Cape. Set in the productive farming country between Humansdorp and the coast, the land lies within easy reach of St Francis Bay, Oyster Bay, the Kromme River and the N2, combining genuine agricultural potential with the lifestyle appeal of one of the region’s most desirable corners.
Already a well-watered, working farm with strong borehole yields, three large earth dams, single-phase power and established stock-handling infrastructure, it offers an incoming owner the rare combination of scale, water security and turnkey agricultural readiness, all within easy reach of the coast.

The Land
The farm extends to approximately 331 hectares of productive, workable land, including roughly 95 hectares of arable land alongside extensive grazing pasture. As shown on the aerial boundary plan, it sits in gently undulating terrain typical of the Kouga agricultural belt, served by internal farm-access tracks and currently zoned and used for agriculture. Average rainfall is generous, ranging from about 850 to 1 200 millimetres per annum, which together with the farm’s water resources supports extensive grazing, livestock or cropping operations while leaving ample scope for a homestead, lodge or lifestyle development, subject to the necessary approvals.

Water, Services and Farm Infrastructure
A standout feature of this farm is its water security. Two boreholes are in place, the first delivering approximately 7 000 litres per hour and the second approximately 30 000 litres per hour, although no pump is currently fitted to the second borehole. The boreholes are not currently registered, and registration with the Department of Water and Sanitation can be arranged by the new owner. The farm also has three large earth dams, the first of which is fed by a natural fountain, and benefits from a single-phase electricity supply.
In terms of farming infrastructure, the property offers approximately 95 hectares of arable land, fenced livestock pens and a neck clamp for stock handling. A small dwelling of approximately 36 square metres is currently used as a store room for farming equipment.
Two registered servitudes traverse the land, namely a services servitude of about 1 115 square metres and an electrical servitude of approximately 13.2 hectares (132 347 square metres). Prospective buyers should review the title deed and servitude diagrams to understand their exact position and effect on any development planning.

Location and Lifestyle
The farm enjoys one of the Eastern Cape’s most appealing rural and coastal settings. Humansdorp functions as the primary economic and administrative hub for the surrounding region, with agriculture, particularly dairy farming and citrus production, forming the cornerstone of the local economy. The property lies within the greater St Francis Bay, Oyster Bay and Kromme River area, with easy access to Humansdorp and close proximity to a renowned coastline offering beaches, an estuary, fishing and watersports. It sits roughly 87 kilometres west of Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) and around 15 kilometres off the N2 highway via Humansdorp, in a mild, subtropical climate well suited to year-round farming and outdoor living.

The Opportunity
This is a versatile, large-scale parcel offering several avenues for an incoming owner. It is well suited to active farming, supporting extensive grazing, livestock or cropping at scale, backed by strong borehole yields, three dams and roughly 95 hectares of arable land. It also lends itself to a lifestyle estate, where a private homestead with sweeping rural views could be built minutes from the coast on a farm that is already watered and powered. The wider area is established for guest farms, eco-retreats and birding, offering eco-tourism potential subject to approvals, and the property’s size and location make it an attractive long-term investment opportunity in a growing coastal corridor.
