Farm For Sale in Modimolle

Property description

NESTLED IN THE MAJESTIC WATERBERG REGION OF LIMPOPO YOU WILL FIND THIS LODGE BOASTING WITH BREATHTAKING PANORAMIC VIEWS OF MOUNTAINS AND BUHVELD.

The structural framing of the Lodge includes access walkways; roof truss support details; window- and door framing; lodge decking-, marquees tent supports as well as a steel staircase housed in a steel and glass frame that provides access to the underground wine cellar.
The Lodge has five distinctive elements: x4 superior lodges, a Main Lodge, an outside leisure & entertainment area, a wine cellar and a self-catering facility namely the Nyala Hunting Camp.
Access to the four superior en-suite lodges is via steel bridge-links through private doors onto a curved access walkway, which is covered with Rhodesian teak decking.
The four modern lodges are designed as a one-bedroom en-suite unit with a west-facing deck overlooking the un-spoilt bushveld. These lodges cater for comfort during all seasons and have an eye height glazed fireplace, wooden television display unit, private garden, -outdoor shower and -steel deck that is enclosed by stainless steel handrails & brackets which is combined with commercial steel handrail panels.
All furniture pieces were specifically designed, and purpose made for the Lodge. It is constructed from Mahogany Wood.
The main lodge is placed midway between the 4 lodges and hosts a reception area which is a double volume framed and glazed foyer with an exhibition of roof-lighted hunting trophies encased on the side wall; large dining area; baronial chef’s kitchen; lounge; bar and colonial room.
Leading from the main lodge through folding stacker doors is the outside leisure and entertainment area which consist of the marquees tent and braai boma; a large, curved pool and a p¬ool/patio deck, whereof the support columns for the patio roof is constructed from a combination of wood and structural steel. The structural support posts for the marquees tent have been included in the design of both the boma and pool deck.
An interlinked subterranean Wine Cellar was built underneath the tiled floor of the outside pool/patio deck. The wine cellar is the lodges hidden gem and can be accessed from the bar area through a steel-and-glass connection that houses the steel stairs, stainless steel handrails and solid Walnut wood treads and landing.
The protection of natural flora was of highest importance during design and construction.
The site has a significant slope from North to South that required careful planning with regard to both the top- and underwater flow into a storm water management system that feeds the vlei dam situated outside the Lodge footprint. The vlei dam is in full view of the main lodge deck area that provides for game viewing.
In creating a showpiece for steel and modern approach to architecture, the success of this entire development lies in the seamless blending of the Lodge into the backdrop of the rocky hillside behind it. The Lodge is not only a place to rest and unwind, but it is an experience that should be lived and appreciated by all.
