17.5 ha Farm in Northern Paarl

Historic 17.5 ha Paarl Farm with Guest House, Vineyard, and Expansive Views

Discover this remarkable 17.5-hectare farm in Paarl, a property rich in seventeenth-century Cape Dutch history with a blend of timeless character and modern comforts.

The original thatched-roof homestead, dating back to 1692, has been tastefully restored to preserve its unique heritage. Authentic features like exposed wooden beams and original doors have been lovingly retained. Now serving as a guest house, the homestead offers five luxurious en-suite rooms, each distinctively decorated with a hint of modern flair. The kitchen and living area, which includes bar facilities, opens to an inviting entertainment space complete with a pergola, swimming pool, pizza oven, and braai.

Close to the main house is a historic thatch-roof annex with additional accommodations, including two luxury en-suite rooms, one standard en-suite room, and a managers apartment with an open-plan living area.

Additional structures on the property include:

A farm implement shed, which comes with pre-approved permissions for conversion into a wedding or function venue, along with a potential wine cellar and restaurant.

Six occupied labourer cottages.

The farm is actively engaged in the production of wine grapes and guavas, both under irrigation. Approximately 7 hectares are dedicated to vineyards (featuring a range of cultivars delivered to Boland Wine Cellar, with shares in the cellar included in the sale). Around 3.5 hectares are planted with guavas, most of which are supplied to the canning industry, with the remainder processed by a juice company. Additional areas of the property are occupied by buildings, gardens, a dam, and some open land.

The farm is well-secured with beams, CCTV, and electric perimeter fencing.

Water rights to a mountain stream are included in the title deed, supplying a storage dam on the property thats supplemented by a borehole, providing ample water for farming, gardens, and drinking.

Nestled in a picturesque landscape with stunning mountain views, this well-maintained farm is offered as a going concern, complete with all farming equipment, tools, and furnishings for both the guest house and agricultural operations.
