Montagne du Lion Farm Living

Montagne du Lion Farm Living is the agro-residential neighbourhood within Ferney Tropical Agrihood, beneath the Bambou mountain range in south-east Mauritius. Ferney’s current brochure advertises 76 numbered, ready-to-build freehold plots across 189 Mauritian arpents, with individual parcels ranging from about 0.8 to 3 arpents. This updates the earlier 68-plot, 170-acre first-phase plan. The land is designed for productive cultivation alongside an autonomous farmhouse; it is a plot purchase, not a completed house. Current plot-by-plot availability, prices and approved buildable areas still require the latest sales schedule and site plan. A numbered 76-plot masterplan is available in the 2025 brochure, but buyers should confirm the boundaries, area, access, terrain and service conditions for the specific plot they select. The architectural guidelines draw on the region’s heritage and adapt the farmhouse to its topography. They describe bioclimatic design, sloping roofs, shaded overhangs, louvred openings for cross-ventilation, reflective finishes and modular layouts. The developer presents an off-grid photovoltaic home concept with rainwater harvesting and an individual water-treatment station; the final system design and costs depend on the approved plans. The agricultural guidance sets out distinct planting areas, orchards, hedges and natural buffers, and asks residents to begin cultivation within the first year without chemical inputs. Ferney promotes support from its agri-entrepreneurs and an optional route to managed agro-services, rather than assuming every owner will operate a farm unaided. Beyond the plots, the wider Ferney vision combines conservation, reforestation, walking and cycling routes, farming, food and nature-based experiences. The brochure advertises access to La Vallée de Ferney and describes existing and future facilities in the larger agrihood; the timing and terms of each facility should be verified separately. CIEL Properties Ltd is named as developer, with Atelier LD as master planner, Jugaad as project architect, SD Green on agricultural strategy and SPS on sales and marketing. Ferney markets Farm Living within a Smart City Scheme setting and mentions resale to foreigners, but a buyer’s own eligibility and the plot’s approved legal terms should be confirmed from current project and regulatory documents. For a sound comparison, request the current plot schedule, title and servitude information, architectural and agricultural rules, infrastructure specification, price list, annual estate charges and construction approval process.
