1,491.84ha Mixed Agricultural & Hunting Property on the Koonap River
Situated between Fort Beaufort and Grahamstown, Clifton is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Eastern Cape farming enterprise combining irrigated agriculture, livestock infrastructure, established hunting operations and historic homestead living.
Extending over 1,491.84 hectares and comprising four title deeds, the property is divided by a public road into three distinct operational sections, creating a unique combination of farming, game and tourism potential.

An established orange orchard of approximately 600 trees is situated along the river, supported by registered irrigation rights authorising 4.5 hectares and 20,866m³ of water annually from the Koonap River. Approximately 7 hectares have already been developed under irrigation.
