It is a pleasure to offer this splendid working dairy farm or lifestyle farm at the Langeberg foothills.
Have it both ways- a beautiful dairy farm with potential for eco-tourism only 7 km's from Robertson . This serene 37.3 hectare high producing dairy farm is easy to manage, has high water yields and a milking parlour for the herd of 100 high-yielding jersey cows. It would also serve as an idyllic stud farm with its own micro climate.
Water is obtained from the Breede- Gouritz water scheme on the farm’s own weir, gravity fed to the pastures with permanent irrigators. A separate borehole which can supply 90 000 l/p hour is also available and sufficient for all the farms needs.
The North western border of the farm is the Willem Nels river and the farm is also fed by mountain streams
.
Pasture camps are fenced for rotation and management. The operational buildings consist of the Milking parlour, storage tanks, silos, storage and a heated feeding area for the calves. There are also two staff cottages.
The farm specializes in highly sought-after award-winning clotted cream, introduced by the owner with his expertise from Cornwall. It supplies many well-known 5-star establishments in Cape Town and the surrounding region. Possibilities to expand the offered range are boundless, e.g., Butter and yogurt.
A Historic farmhouse dating back to 1850 completes this idyllic lifestyle. All Heritage Council approved extensive renovations have been added to modernise but not stray from the farmhouse character of the original building.
The house has many top-grade finishes such a Jatoba wooden floors, a Falcon cooking range, Swiss and Italian sanitaryware finishes.
The front door leads into a dining room with an adjoining kitchen with traditional black and white tile flooring, complete with a Falcon cooking range and separate scullery. A sitting room with high gabled ceilings, wood fireplace, and beautiful wooden floors opens with French doors to the large wrap around verandah .
The master bedroom with French doors also leads onto the verandah so you can soak up the magnificent scenery. An underfloor heated bathroom is en-suite. A second bedroom also has its en-suite bathroom complete with bath and shower. A third room can be used as a bedroom or Study.
The kitchen cupboards are fitted with German-made cabinets and leads into a scullery and outdoor service area.
The house features a wide wrap-around verandah that controls sunlight for summer and winter and aids temperature control, as well as a beautiful swimming pool for lazy summer days.
An income-generating studio is situated below the master bedroom and is completed with the same high-quality finishes and beautiful mountain views. There is an Attic running the length of the house that can also be converted for accommodation and is reached via an external staircase.
A beautifully kept garden and mature trees surround the entire house.
Combine your love for farming with this idyllic beauty, beautiful gentle livestock, a thriving established market plus the tourism potential of eco pods, and of course turn this into the most idyllic stud farm.
This farm is sold as a going concern and can be zero-rated for VAT should you be VAT registered. The farm equipment is available along with the livestock if interested by separate negotiation.
