A Story of Country Living, Dual Purpose, and Endless Possibility
Less than two hours from Cape Town, beyond the hum of the city, lies a hidden valley where time slows, and life finds its rhythm again. At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, secured by two private gates, a unique property waits — a sanctuary where living, farming, and hospitality come together in perfect balance.
Here, the land feels alive. The morning light touches the slopes where fynbos meets cultivated fields, and where Cape Grysbok, Duiker, and Bushbuck still move freely between the mountain and the meadow. A well-placed game fence allows wildlife to roam unhindered while protecting the land set aside for cultivation. The sound of a stream fills the air — feeding the soil and the spirit alike.
The farm’s three hectares of registered water rights draw directly from the mountain, providing pure, gravity-fed water that gives life to every part of the property. With permanent irrigation in place, the grazing lands offer endless potential — whether for a few sheep or goats, an olive grove, rows of vines, or a patchwork of vegetables and flowers. It’s a small-scale or lifestyle farm in the truest sense, easy to manage yet deeply rewarding.
The main farmhouse, with its wide stoep and weathered charm, has been lovingly kept — a space where family life unfolds with ease. Inside, polished floors lead from a cozy lounge with a wood-burning fireplace to airy bedrooms filled with natural light. The kitchen looks out toward the garden, where old trees shade the lawns and seasons unfold in slow, beautiful cycles.
Just a short walk away, a renovated cottage offers comfort and privacy — ideal for extended family, guests, or a live-in manager. Its soft stone walls and wood-burning fireplace create a warm, intimate retreat that feels both connected and apart — a hallmark of true dual living.
But this property’s story doesn’t end with home and land. Since 2014, it has welcomed travelers seeking quiet and authenticity through a thriving guest business. Four TiPi tents, artfully arranged in a fenced garden, offer a glamping experience beneath the stars — complete with open-air showers, private braai areas, and the gentle crackle of fireplaces on cool winter nights. Guests gather around the pool, linger on the upper deck with its undercover braai, or unwind in the hot tub as the day fades into the scent of wood smoke and mountain air.
For those with vision, the future here is wide open. The property carries tourism rezoning for four additional units, allowing for expansion into a boutique eco-retreat, farm-stay, or creative hospitality venture. With income from day one, it’s a rare blend of lifestyle and livelihood — a property that both provides and inspires.
Surrounded by award-winning wine estates, olive farms, and countryside restaurants, this corner of the Winelands offers everything the soul could want — mountain trails, cycling routes, rivers to explore, and skies vast enough to remind you what freedom feels like.
In this quiet valley, dual living becomes dual purpose. It’s where family life, small-scale farming, and guest hospitality coexist — each enriching the other. A place where days begin with birdsong, end by the fire, and every moment in between belongs to the land.
A life lived fully — and shared generously.
