This magnificent Farm, set on 606 pristine Hectares offers an unparalleled lifestyle with privacy, elegance and style. No detail has been missed in the opportunity to create a completely private reserve with a gracious, light filled contemporary homestead and outbuildings.
A few kilometres outside Robertson, in the historic Klaasvoogds Valley with stunning uninterrupted views of the Langeberg mountains, this sizeable farm is completely private, and the pristine veld is home to herds of Zebra, Springbok, Eland, Red Hartebeest and Kudu.
The homestead is approximately 3km from the farm gate, accessed on a perfect brick paved driveway, ensuring that you are completely cut off from the outside world, yet you will enjoy all modern amenities and convenience.
Lovingly created by the owner as a retreat for his family and whilst no expense was spared in its creation, the thought and attention to detail make it unique in any environment.
The property lends itself to a private residence, a boutique hotel, a lifestyle development if planning permission can be obtained or a Private Game Reserve Share Scheme.
The Main Residence:
Generous entertainment areas include a large sitting room, a cinema and billiard room, a double volume library for the most avid reader, a music room with excellent acoustics, two elegantly appointed studies, a choice of dining areas for winter and summer, lunch and supper, and large covered patios to take full advantage of the beautiful vistas at all times of the day. As you sit at the table on the covered patio, you have 240 degree views over the landscape, which is soothing to the senses. The home is so elegantly appointed, that there was no need to embellish the beautiful finishes and it is simple and comfortable, whilst providing a backdrop to the most prolific art collection or to beautiful antique or modern furnishings and carpets.
The working part of the home leaves no detail unaccounted for, with a practical and beautiful kitchen offering a vaulted ceiling for temperature control in summer, with a dining area for informal entertainment, a coldroom, huge fridges, Lacanche stoves, a separate pantry and large laundry, a scullery, a separate room for crockery and china, a linen room, store rooms and a service lift to serve the main bedroom suite.
Two large double garages with direct access, one to the private entertainment areas, the other to the kitchen and service areas are lined with cupboards and storage space.
The bedrooms, accessed via a lift or via two separate staircases, offer exquisite views over the garden and veld to the mountains beyond. The master bedroom suite is completely private, with a large, well appointed dressing room, study and beautiful bathroom, luggage room, hobby room and even a sizeable star gazing deck for the pristine stars.
The second and third suites, also beautifully appointed, offer glorious views and en suite bathrooms.
The home has a service room for the inverter fed by an impressive solar installation.
The Entertainment Pavillion, Swimming pool and Outdoor Dining area
A beautiful 20 m rimflow pool and entertainment area, looking over the farm lake, garden and veld to the mountains, is set a little way from the house, offering a kitchen, dining or party area, a pool room, shower and ample storage.
Guest Cottage or Farm Manager Cottage
Set near the entertainment area, is a guest cottage or Farm Manager Cottage, comfortably appointed with bedroom, sitting room, kitchen and bathroom. It also showcases the beautiful views.
Gym
Below the cottage is a large well appointed gym with the best views ever known to encourage a great workout!
Housekeeper’s Cottage
A generous home is set next to the kitchen area for the housekeeper, with bedroom, sitting room, kitchen and bathroom.
Barn
A large barn is set to the left as you enter the Homestead, with ample space for fodder and implement or vehicle storage. Above the barn are two generous staff apartments, fully fitted.
Garden
As you enter the home, the indigenous fever trees and acacias cast a beautiful glow of light into the home. The garden is magnificent, and is a worthy front for the veld and mountain views. The view from the front of the home down to the large lake is reminiscent of the plains of the Serengeti in Tanzania and the perspective is as far as the eye can see. Water has been used throughout the property in the form of rills and unexpected water features, adding to the unique nature of the home.
Access is easy for viewing and no descriptive detail or wordy agent promotional statements can do justice to this beautiful property. Viewing is essential and extremely worthwhile.
