On the 24th of July, Rawson Auctions will be auctioning two farms in Gansbaai, Western Cape. The first of these, Driefontein estate, has been publicized in a separate statement. The second, which is known as Uylenkraal, has 35 ha of land and is a proclaimed nature reserve. It has, says Tanya Jovanovski, co-franchisee for Rawson Auctions in the Western Cape, very good long-term development potential.
“On the reserve,” she says, “are 14 erven, each 450 m2, which are ideal for the construction of 150 m2 houses. As the area links in with good hiking trails, is only 4 km from the beach, has wonderful vistas of nearby mountains and its own beautiful kloof with tall trees as well a waterfall, this would make a wonderful lifestyle development for those wanting a peaceful country retreat.”
The auction will take place at 12 noon. The venue will be the Rawson Property Group’s head office at 222 Main Road, Rondebosch (on the corner of Main and Klipper Road). Jovanovski expects bids to start from R1,8 million.
Rawson Auctions charge no registration fee to bid, but they do insist that, on the fall of the hammer, a 5% deposit on the purchase price and a 10% commission plus VAT be paid to the auctioneer.
