A MUST SEE - Impossible to capture the essence of this lifestyle!
Just 1 hour 30 minutes from George Airport and around 3 hours from Cape Town, along one of the most scenic routes in the Western Cape, this exceptional 120-hectare farm offers a rare blend of history, scale, and opportunity.
Located near Riversdale in the heart of the Garden Route, the property is one of the area’s oldest farms, dating back to the 1700s. It includes a collection of beautifully restored Cape-Dutch buildings, including a listed national monument farmhouse, all carefully preserved and sensitively upgraded over time.
The farm spans 120 hectares, with approximately 35 hectares of fertile arable land. The soil is highly productive, and neighbouring farmers have already expressed interest in purchasing portions
of the land, offering future flexibility and value to a new owner.
