About Us
Our Principal, Dries Barnard of Dries Barnard Properties, has
successfully completed the latest NQF5 requirements for Principal
Estate Agents, an achievement not many Estate Agent Principals can put
claim to. This qualification is highly recommended for a prospective
client to know they are receiving the absolute best possible service
from their Agent who must be knowledgeable and qualified to do so!
More than 17 years ago, Dries bought his first farm in Montagu. Since
then, by way of buying and selling, he has ended up with his dream
farm, tucked away in the beautiful Montagu mountains! Sounds divine?
Please read on!! This recipe for success is only possible in an active
real estate market of which Montagu has been a part of for some time.
To find a suitable property, you need an honest, reliable and
knowledgeable sales agent. Our successes speak for themselves, not
only do we sell more farms than any other Estate Agent in the area, we
also succeeded in two "Magnabs". A "Magnab" is a term used when an
Estate Agent sells three neighboring farms, to different purchasers!
Therefore, we believe when buying or selling farm property, our Estate
Agency is the one to choose. Dries Barnard Properties specializes in
farm and country estates, commercial properties and businesses. The
wide selection of farm properties and businesses around Montagu can be
seen on our website.
There are a number of beautiful small farms for
sale in the Montagu, Robertson and Bonnievale areas, some with
infrastructure, some operational entities and even undeveloped
mountain farms. Being a farmer since 1986, Dries has extensive
experience in farming with cattle, goats, sheep, free range animals,
horses and even game. Dries is currently farming under organic
conditions, using no hormones or chemicals, producing for example
lucern, nuts, fruit, veggies and other crops.
From decades of
experience in this field, Dries offers qualified contacts for water
divining, fencing, drilling boreholes, earth moving, making roads,
water testing and very important, alternative energy resources, solar
pumped and inexpensive gravity fed irrigation - a must for the current
electricity prices!
In fact, Dries has knowledge and contacts
throughout the whole spectrum of farming requirements. We offer a
comprehensive quality service to our Purchasers not only before, but
especially after the sale has been concluded, by arranging different
services e.g. drilling boreholes, fencing and earth moving etc. We are
also qualified Auctioneers, trained by the S.A. College of
Auctioneering, a member of S.A.I.A and N.A.A.
The Region
The Little Karoo towns of Montagu, Robertson and Bonnievale are
friendly, peaceful hamlets surrounded by mountains and an unspoilt
wilderness of indigenous fynbos with pristine hiking trails and
endless skies for stargazing and bird watching. Farm properties in
Montagu offer from beautiful, secluded valleys, fed by natural springs
and fountains to mountains with proteas, aloes and the distant cry of
Fish Eagles! The climate and fertile soil in the area provides
favorable conditions for growing olives, nuts, fruit, vineyards, figs,
herbs, etc.
Montagu is one of the historic towns on the popular R62 wine route,
being a weekend destination for many South Africans and overseas visitors,
where scenic 4x4 routes, rock climbing, hot springs, and a big 5 eco
tourist camp are all on your doorstep. Farm properties in this region are
ideal as weekend retreats and are suitable for the development of private
game and hunting lodges. A place to return to and for some, to never leave!
