Farm For Sale in Harkerville AH, Plettenberg Bay

Property description

On Show - Joint Mandate.

So you want to live on a farm in greater Plettenberg Bay, but want to be close enough to the beaches, shops, schools and restaurants so that the convenience, autonomy and countryside calm are in balance? Then this is possibly the ideal solution - situated a mere 10min from Main Street Plettenberg Bay, and situated a kilometre from the N2 along a private, cul de sac, gravel road, this is a virtually noise-free lifestyle farm with a mixture of big blue skies, indigenous and exotic forest mix, fynbos, ravines, and of course a large, well maintained homestead.

The homestead comprises a 3 bed, 3 bath main house, and a separate but semi-attached cottage with 2 beds and 2 bathrooms. Both face in a northerly direction, with deep-set covered patios that maximise warmth in winter, and cool shade in summer. The main house has a main bedroom with en-suite, 2 separate rooms, 1 with an en-suite, and then a full size bathroom off the lounge. Completely open plan, the kitchen and lounge blend into one another, the stunning fireplace acting as a feature and a heater. There is a compact office nook just below the raised sun lounge/dining area, a beautifully expansive space that soaks up sun and gorges itself on the manicured lawn, gardens and covered garden patio. The kitchen has a scullery/pantry area to the rear, which opens out onto the carports, workshop and worker's bathroom.

The cottage has 2 rooms, 1 with full size en-suite, the other with a toilet and basin only. In the centre is a comfortable size lounge/dining/kitchen area, that also open out towards the carports and the 'working' area of the property - think rain tanks (for domestic use), extensive vegetable and medicinal gardens irrigated from the borehole, chicken coop, compost heap, and the labourer's cottage.

With the dwellings and working areas situated on the higher ground, the farm slopes gently initially in all directions, steepening on the eastern and western boundaries into the ravines, which are thick with forest - excellent for cultivating walking paths, or even a forest cottage. To the south, the neighbouring property is accessed via servitude, both properties sharing a remote vehicle gate.

There is also an Eskom connection, single phase, for convenience, however one could very easily go off grid completely and leave the centralised services and load-shedding behind.

This level of serenity with proximity to the highway and town centre is rare in Plettenberg Bay, and the 2 main dwellings are completely move in ready. With some personal tweaks to this property, you could be peacefully settled in the tranquil countryside yet only 10min from Plett and the beachside attractions it brings.
