Macadamia Nut farm with 4 bedroom house for sale
Set in the serene coastal village of Melville, a few minutes from Port Shepstone and Banana Beach, this 4.8-hectare macadamia farm combines the calm of the countryside with the charm of the coast. Surrounded by lush greenery and open skies, the property offers a peaceful retreat with the added benefit of a working agricultural operation — ideal for those looking for a balanced lifestyle, investment opportunity, or retirement venture.
The main residence is a spacious and inviting family home designed for easy living. It features four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a master suite with a walk-in wardrobe. A guest toilet adds extra convenience. The open-plan living spaces flow naturally onto a covered patio overlooking a sparkling pool, creating the perfect spot for gatherings, braais, or relaxed weekends with loved ones. Every corner of the home reflects comfort and a connection to nature.
Beyond the house lies a thriving macadamia farm supported by excellent infrastructure. A perennial water stream, dam, and six JoJo water tanks with pumps feed a fully functional sprinkler system, ensuring reliable irrigation throughout the orchards. The farm is home to over 1,000 macadamia trees, with approximately 800 trees established in 2005, 100 Beaumont trees planted in 2016, and another 300 added in 2018. With an average annual yield of 6–10 tons and a crack-out rate above 40%, the farm offers strong agricultural potential and consistent returns.
The property also includes several outbuildings that support both living and operations. There is a workshop and sorting/drying facility, staff accommodation for men and women, and a farm office conveniently located near the entrance that can be used for management or converted into extra quarters if needed. A pump house near the dam ensures smooth operation of the water system.
A comprehensive collection of farming equipment, valued at approximately R535,000, is included in the sale. Among the inventory are JoJo tanks with booster pumps, a KUDU Turfking 750 Mower, a Suzuki King Quad and trailer, spraying units, pruning tools, brush cutters, chainsaws, compressors, weighing scales, and custom-built sorting tables — everything required to maintain the orchards efficiently.
Outdoors, the property is alive with the sounds of nature. Rolling orchards, manicured lawns, and vibrant birdlife create a private sanctuary where every day feels like a quiet escape. Whether you’re walking between the macadamia rows or lounging beside the pool, this is a space designed for both productivity and peace.
Completing the property is a double garage and secure storeroom, offering ample space for vehicles, tools, and equipment. With its ideal position close to beaches, schools, and shopping amenities, this unique farmstead perfectly combines coastal living with productive farming — a rare opportunity for those seeking beauty, purpose, and tranquillity in one remarkable property.*The information herein is correct to the best of our knowledge as provided by various parties, however errors and omissions excepted.
