Description
This 3.8-hectare agricultural property, situated just outside Stellenbosch, offers a well-run olive enterprise supported by reliable water, modern utilities and a set of practical, well-designed buildings. Its location provides rural privacy with quick access to town, major routes and surrounding wine estates.
Agricultural Profile:
The land is primarily devoted to olive production, with several established cultivars grown for a diverse annual yield. Lemon trees and a productive vegetable garden complement the main crop and contribute to ongoing self-sufficiency.
Irrigation is secured through a combination of Theewaterskloof Scheme allocation and municipal supply. Water tanks are positioned across the property to maintain consistent pressure and availability throughout the seasons.
Main Residence:
The principal home measures approximately 671 m² and is designed for functional, high-quality living. It includes:
Three en-suite bedrooms
A study separate from the main living areas, with enclosed fireplace
An open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge/TV arrangement
An enclosed fireplace
Outdoor entertainment space with built-in braai
A balau deck overlooking a rim-flow swimming pool
Cellar
2 X 4-car garages
The layout prioritises comfort, circulation and usability, making the home suitable for both permanent living and weekend retreat purposes.
Additional Buildings:
Guest Unit: A self-contained two-bedroom cottage (both en-suite) with its own kitchen, living room with enclosed fireplace, study, laundry area and covered parking.
Manager’s Cottage: Accommodation for on-site supervision and day-to-day operational oversight.
Storage/Implement Shed: Designed for machinery and agricultural equipment.
Power and Services:
The property operates independently of Eskom (still has a substation on the property should Eskom be needed at any stage) on a solar system, with super capacitors rather than lithium batteries, offering redundancy and cost efficiency. A Kohler 22K generator acts as a standby. This blend ensures stable power even in periods of load reduction or maintenance.
Olive Varieties:
The orchard includes multiple cultivars—such as Kalamata, Nocellara, Frantoio, Coratina, Cerignola and Mission—supporting both table and oil production.
A boutique olive tree nursery is operated from the premises.
Lifestyle and Environment:
The farm is positioned to maximise natural surroundings, with open rural views and an established bird population. Its setting allows for a private agricultural lifestyle without compromising access to Stellenbosch’s amenities, schools and commercial areas.
