Self-sufficient country living with breathtaking mountain views on 96 hectares of pristine fynbos near Sedgefield and Knysna — includes two cottages, borehole water and solar power.
Where the air is clean, you have your own fresh water and energy supplies, breath taking mountain views, 96 hectares of pristine natural Fynbos vegetation teeming with birdlife, a well-established veggie garden, plus 2 cottages with space to build the country home of your dreams.
A civilized distance from civilization with only a few kilometres of gravel road before you reach a very well maintained tar road just 25 minutes to Sedgefield and 40 minutes from Knysna – the heart of the Garden Route, South Africa.
There is a quaint 1 bedroom Hansel and Gretel cottage with a cute kitchen that has all the mod cons you need to make life very comfortable plus a large fireplace. The bedroom is designed for romance with a Victorian slipper bath taking pride of place. Next to that you will find a separate shower room and toilet. The lounge opens out onto a wooden deck with mountain views that keep you captivated for hours.
A short distance from the cottage you will find a lovely lapa area with built in braai. The garden has been levelled and would be perfect to erect a larger home also with stunning views over the entire property.
The nearby store room houses a recently installed solar powered invertor. In addition to solar power there is 3 phase electricity supplied by Eskom. There is room to extend the store room if required. Previously they had a pottery kiln and workshop attached to it.
Water is supplied by a strong borehole which feeds into a reservoir as well as numerous rain water tanks.
In addition to the cottage there is also a one bedroom labourer’s house where the farm manager currently lives. This cottage could be renovated to create a very nice second income generating dwelling.
A thriving vegetable garden provides ample produce for residents of the property and could easily be expanded to become a commercial venture.
You can live with peace of mind knowing that the property is fully fenced has two solar powered electric gates plus a surveillance camera at the main entrance.
The current owner spent years rehabilitating the land to rid it of alien vegetation and restore the natural fynbos. It has been registered as a voluntary conservation area to ensure that its natural state is preserved for generations to come.
I look forward to sharing this pristine property with you either in person or via a virtual viewing.
