This property, (10,6Ha) has mountain views from three sides, is partly bordered by the Sundays River and sheer cliffs and lays nestled in one of the most peaceful areas of the country, known as the Wolwas Graaff-Reinet (far removed from the village of Adendorp).

The place has been owned by one family for ¾ of a century - an ideal place to live and raise a family. The large 307sqm lovely old homestead – set far back from the road, has 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 lounges (one with excellent fireplace), dining room with French doors onto patio, office, large pantry, farm style kitchen. At the front entrance is a lovely enclosed ‘lived-in’ porch leading into the house. The high ceilings and steeply pitched roof are a boon in the summer months.

Facing west, with stunning view of the iconic Spandauskop, is a large separate guest room with a full en-suite bathroom and Oregon pine fitted kitchen which the owners currently Airbnb (they have Super Host Status). There is an abundance of beautiful trees in the garden around the house e.g. Tipiana, Jacaranda, Fir, Palm and others.

This beautiful lifestyle property is suitable for farming as it has lock-up kraals (semi-roofed), a loading ramp and many well fenced paddocks all supplied with drinking troughs. Considering the growth of Graaff-Reinet, the property could also be ideal for holiday or housing estate developments. The local golf club is just across the river.
Outbuildings include sheds, 4 workshops/storage rooms, 2 lock-up garages, 3 carports. Further away are two semi-detached staff quarters as well as a large cottage in need of TLC.

The water rights are unable to be exercised at present due to the ineptness of the local municipality. An expert hydrogeologist this year identified two drilling sites that hold great promise for irrigation or development. An existing borehole (4000 litres per hour) serves the garden, some paddocks, 2 reservoirs (one used as a swimming pool in summer), the BnB, the staff quarters, the livestock paddocks and the kraals. The rest of the water and power is provided by the municipality. Read more...
