Situated in the heart of the Swartland near Malmesbury, this expansive agricultural property offers a rare opportunity to combine rural living, farming, and guest accommodation. Proudly presented by Encore Realtors, this farm spans over 113 hectares and is well-equipped for both agricultural production and hospitality, with ample infrastructure and scenic natural surroundings.
The property includes a spacious main residence of approximately 770 m2, which contains several guest rooms that were previously rented out to trainees and short-term visitors. While the guest house is not very active at present, the infrastructure remains in place and offers strong potential for revitalization as a bed-and-breakfast, guest retreat, or staff accommodation. A second house of around 240 m2 provides additional living space, suitable for a second family home or manager’s quarters. Both homes are equipped with solar power and inverter systems, offering energy efficiency and off-grid capability.
A key strength of the property lies in its versatile infrastructure. Storage and utility buildings total approximately 380 m2 and currently serve as garages, general-purpose storage, and a sheep shelter. A 70 m2 meat room and cold storage facility is ideal for agricultural processing or farm-to-table operations. Additional facilities include a 90 m2 manager’s cottage, three staff accommodation units, and a 114 m2 office space—supporting a wide range of operational or commercial uses. The estate is powered by a robust 150 kVa backup generator, ensuring continuity even during load-shedding.
Agriculturally, the farm is highly productive, with roughly 90 hectares planted with winter grains such as wheat, canola, barley, and lupines. The land is zoned Agricultural Zone 1 and enjoys further consent use rights for purposes including guest house operation, nursery, 4x4 routes, recreational facilities such as race tracks or shooting ranges, and small-scale sand mining for construction material. The remaining 23.5 hectares include the homestead, landscaped gardens, internal roads, and dams, adding to the aesthetic and functional appeal of the property.
Water supply is secured via municipal access from the Voëlvlei Dam (through a neighboring farm agreement) as well as an on-site borehole. These resources support both household and farming needs, ensuring long-term sustainability for various types of operations.
Offered as a going concern, this property presents a solid opportunity for investors, lifestyle buyers, or agricultural entrepreneurs looking to unlock the full potential of a multifunctional estate. With the seller registered for VAT, qualifying buyers may benefit from a zero-rated VAT transaction, making this a financially attractive acquisition.
