Set amidst the vineyards of one of Stellenbosch’s most sought-after wine-growing areas , this exceptional 5-hectare smallholding in the Stellenbosch Winelands offers a rare opportunity to secure a private country estate of outstanding quality, character and tranquillity, within easy reach of Stellenbosch town.
Framed by magnificent mountain and vineyard views, the property combines understated Cape Winelands elegance with sophisticated infrastructure and a largely self-sufficient country lifestyle. At its heart is a beautifully designed family residence, built in 2011, offering generous accommodation, refined finishes and a seamless connection between the home, landscaped garden and surrounding countryside.
The main residence features an inviting entrance leading to elegant dining and lounge areas with fireplace and underfloor heating, a private office, playroom or gym, and a generous ground-floor en-suite bedroom. The well-appointed kitchen includes a central counter and informal lounge area, complemented by a separate scullery and walk-in pantry.
Outdoor living is designed for relaxed Winelands entertaining, with a dedicated entertainment area, built-in braai and pizza oven overlooking the landscaped gardens and 9.5m x 3m swimming pool . Upstairs, a relaxed pajama lounge leads to three en-suite bedrooms, including a spacious main suite with air-conditioning and walk-in dressing room. Limestone and oak flooring, heated towel rails and carefully considered finishes add to the home's understated quality.
A substantial wine cellar provides excellent storage, while a separate cottage offers a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, laundry and storeroom, ideal for guests, extended family or additional accommodation.
The established garden combines beauty with productivity, featuring plum, lemon, avocado, apricot and almond trees, a herb garden and chicken coop. The property has been thoughtfully developed for comfortable country living, with a borehole producing approximately 3,000 litres per hour , currently operated with a 1,200-litre-per-hour pump and supported by mains and solar backup. Electricity is supplied by Eskom, supplemented by a 12.5 kVA solar system, 10 kW battery storage and a 28 kW generator . Borehole water is treated through a UV-light filtration system, with municipal water connectivity also available.
Security includes an electric fence, beams and alarm system. Satellite fibre internet provides reliable connectivity, with cable fibre also available, while a double garage with direct access to the kitchen adds convenience.
The property also benefits from an allocation of approximately 16% of the agricultural water associated with Theewaterskloof , subject to the applicable transfer and user-share arrangements.
This exceptional Stellenbosch smallholding offers far more than simply a home: it is a private Winelands retreat combining tranquillity, mountain and vineyard views, sophisticated accommodation, established gardens and excellent infrastructure, while remaining conveniently close to Stellenbosch and its renowned wine estates, restaurants and amenities.
The property comprises approximately 5 hectares and is offered at R32,500,000 excluding VAT .
