LIFESTYLE FARM OFFERING DIVERSE OPPORTUNITIES
LIFESTYLE FARM AT THE FOOT OF THE LANGEBERG – OFFERING DIVERSE OPPORTUNITIES
Agrisell is privileged to offer this scenic farm for sale.
This hilly, green, 37.3-hectare farm is situated approximately 7 kms from Robertson, off a well-maintained 3.5 km gravel road, at the foothills of the Langeberg mountains, with the Willemnels River forming part of the north-western border.
From the farm yard, an automated gate leads to the beautiful homestead, lapa and sparkly pool set in a lush garden filled with a large variety of mature trees and decorative shrubs. A green canopy of trees and shrubs covers a set of steps that lead to the guest apartment below.
The original homestead was built in 1850, and the current owners undertook a detailed rebuild and extension to convert it into a comfortable haven, offering modern facilities that blend into the character of the original home. All plans were submitted to Heritage Western Cape for prior approval.
The front entrance leads into the dining room, with a classic, chequered floor that matches the adjoining kitchen. The rest of the home has extremely durable Jatoba wooden floors. The lounge leads off the dining room, and the drawing room, with its high gabled ceiling, and a large, functioning fire-place includes French doors opening onto the veranda.
Two ensuite bedrooms have fitted cupboards, and the third bedroom doubles up as an office. No expense was spared on fittings. The guest cloakroom and bathrooms are decorated with Swiss and Italian finishes. The spacious master bedroom features French doors that lead onto the veranda, with views over the valley below and spectacular mountains close-by.
The wide veranda, stone lapa with fitted furniture and braai area all contribute to easy entertaining. The veranda also contributes to keeping warmth in winter and sheltering the house from heat in summer.
The master bathroom and kitchen have underfloor heating, while the kitchen and scullery are furnished with German-made cabinets and a modern, large Falcon electric range. The scullery leads to a neat, paved area and back-garden.
A large attic that could be converted into additional accommodation, is reached by a wooden, external staircase.
A separate, private guest apartment is situated beneath the master bedroom, with its own full veranda, and steps leading onto the lawn. It shares the views over the majestic mountains and green pastures. This apartment is also finished in quality tiles and fittings, and can be rented out, on a permanent basis, or to tourists.
This region is well-known for its mild climate, with minimal frost during the winter.
Farming infrastructure consists of various outbuildings and three versatile storage sheds.
Pastures are sub-divided into smaller areas and are suitable for any livestock, should the owner want to keep animals.
An abundance of water, is available from three sources. A constant water supply from two catchment areas flows into the farm storage dam, and is gravity-fed to all the pastures, and irrigated by permanent sprinklers.
A borehole fitted with a 15kVa pump and 115 mm pipe also supplies clear fresh water from an underground natural reservoir. It is also linked to the irrigation network and can serve the entire farm if needed.
Water rights from the Willemnels River and registered with the Breede-Gouritz Water Scheme, equal 49,920 cubic meters per annum.
The Langeberg municipality supports Agri-tourism, and this property fits perfectly into that mould. With its proximity to the mountains, natural veldt and water sources, and the indigenous vegetation, covering the undulating hills, it forms an ideal backdrop for setting up a number of holiday cottages in secluded spots. Similarly, space in the hills can be rented to a company that sets up luxury cabins in natural surroundings.
The two staff cottages are occupied by staff members.
This versatile farming unit is equally suited for a laid-back lifestyle, tourism, growing a variety of produce, or for keeping live-stock.
It is offered for sale at R15 million (excluding VAT).
