Rondefontein Farm: 190Ha Secluded Paradise for Sale in Napier, Overberg

Sole mandate: Discover Rondefontein, an exquisite 190ha estate that perfectly blends private nature reserve and agricultural land in the picturesque Overberg region.

Tucked between a majestic mountain nature reserve and rolling farmlands, this hidden gem offers a rare opportunity to own one of the most beautiful properties in the area – less than two hours from Cape Town.

Boundless potential:
Rondefontein is a sanctuary of serenity and security, ideal for a variety of ventures. Whether you are dreaming of cultivating vineyards, olive groves, or farmlands, raising horses or livestock, creating a tourist retreat, or simply setting up a private family home, the possibilities are endless.

Charming accommodations:
The property includes a classic two-bedroom Cape homestead with the potential for a third en-suite bedroom, and two fully restored, furnished two-bedroom cottages near a large spring-fed dam. These homes offer breathtaking views across the hills, where the landscape shifts with the seasons, adding beauty to the already stunning surroundings. The cottages, with their wide stoeps and cosy fireplaces, are perfect for holiday rentals or guest stays.

A spring-fed oasis:
The centrepiece of Rondefontein is undoubtedly the pristine dam, fed year-round by a natural spring. Ideal for both recreation and irrigation, the dam is surrounded by reeds that provide a haven for vibrant wildlife – bass swim below the surface while a variety of bird species, including weavers and red bishops, flourish around the water's edge. A nearby restored boathouse and jetty complete the picture of tranquillity.

Sustainable living:
With crystal-clear domestic water supplied by a solar-powered borehole and gravity-fed tanks, this farm is already equipped for sustainable living. While electricity is currently supplied by Eskom, the farm's north-facing orientation makes it a prime candidate for conversion to solar power.

Agricultural potential:
The property boasts over 40ha of fenced paddocks, perfect for cattle or horses, with an added 20ha of arable land ready for cultivation. The farm generates enough income from agricultural activities, homestead rentals, and wild-flower sales to cover its running costs. The surrounding Jan Malherbe mountain reserve, resplendent with Cape fynbos and proteas, offers endless opportunities for eco-tourism, from hiking and horse riding to picnicking with panoramic views of Cape Agulhas in the distance.

Location:
Just 15 minutes from the charming town of Napier, voted one of the Western Cape's favourite destinations, Rondefontein is within easy reach of popular day-trip spots: Hermanus for whale watching, Stanford for river adventures, Agulhas for beaches, and Bredasdorp for shopping. Cape Town International Airport is only 90 minutes away, ensuring convenience without sacrificing seclusion.

History and heritage:
The main homestead, built in the 1960s, is north-facing with sweeping views of the fields and surrounding countryside. With two bedrooms, a bathroom featuring a roll-top bath, and a large lounge with a wood burner, it is the epitome of rustic charm. The homestead has been continuously inhabited and well-maintained, offering solid construction and plenty of potential for upgrades, including the possibility of converting the garage into an additional en-suite bedroom. The farm also includes the original corrugated iron packing shed, once used for flower processing, and other structures ideal for agricultural use or restoration projects.

A haven for biodiversity:
With 130ha of Rondefontein falling within the Jan Malherbe Private Nature Reserve, this property is home to rich biodiversity, including proteas, pincushions, and endangered species like the blue crane and Cape leopard. The reserve offers unmatched opportunities for nature lovers, from ecotourism to conservation activities.

The heart of the Overberg:
Rondefontein lies within the Sandfontein/Elandskloof region, an area known as the breadbasket of the Cape, supplying grain, fruit, and vegetables to the country. With its natural springs, fertile land, and abundant wildlife, this property is not only a farm – it is a lifestyle, offering the perfect blend of nature, agriculture, and rural charm.

This unique farm, steeped in history and natural beauty, is ready for its next chapter. Whether you are seeking a private retreat or an investment in sustainable agriculture and eco-tourism, Rondefontein invites you to explore its boundless possibilities.
