1I...This incredible home on the treed slopes of the Franschhoek Pass, with views over it's vinyards and olive fields, arguably has the best view the area has to offer. It has, at times, been the venue for high end fashion shoots and weddings, such is the beauty of this 24.9ha property. Simonsberg and Jonkershoek mountains are on the one side and in front are the magnificent mountains which encompass and embrace the entire beauty of the Franschhoek valley.
There are 2 French Provencial style homes each with separate entrances on the property. The villa on the lower slopes is positioned 160m away and out of view of the main house ensuring total privacy and is available for short term lets. It presently has a 90% occupancy rate with a majority of visitors returning to soak up the incredible views and beauty the valley has to offer. There is also separate guest accommodation.

The main residence is some 800m2 in extent and has two glorious entrances leading into an open dining room, kitchen and lounge area with a magnificent fireplace and library. All lead out to a huge veranda with sparkling pool, indoor/outdoor entertainment areas and great fireplaces - all strategically designed to host entertaining on a grand scale or to be used for family living. A large staircase leads to the main bedroom with balconies while the other wing contains an entertainment lounge, pool room, study (or bedroom) and two more bedrooms upstairs with small balconies. There are mountain views all round.
The gem of the one property is the Champagne Cellar which houses the cellar, bottle fermentation cellar and tasting room. The champagne is produced in the Champenoise Methode and can produce up to 20 000 bottle a year. These are destined for both the local and international market. The farming operation comprises 4ha under vine to Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir. Olive Plantations cover a further 1 Ha which is planted to the Mission and Frantoio cultivars. The Olives are pressed locally and they produce excellent Extra Virgin Olive Oil which is sold exclusively in one retail outlet in the Franschhoek Village.
This is a dream lifestyle property that words and pictures simply cannot adequately capture.
