10 Schlafzimmer Farm zum Kauf in Harkerville AH Plettenberg Bay

Your soul yearns for oneness with nature, for the privacy, seclusion and stillness that living in harmony with your surroundings can only bring. Your mind desires a financially viable prospect that facilitates this lifestyle, by utilising the structures, space and business capital already in place, and leveraging the underlying potential of the unused land, structures and space to further maximise the emotional, physical and financial return on investment. As large as the buy-in may seem, take a walk with us as we delve into the details of this multi-faceted, storied, and award-winning destination.

Situated a mere 10min from the playground of Plettenberg Bay, this beautiful piece of land lies a short drive from the main road in Bosky Dell - Olde English for 'bushy dale'. Settled in the mid-19th century, the property was home at various stages to vegetable farming, then cattle farming, and even the original Bosky Dell school, the school bell of which has survived to this day. Developed over the last 20-odd years by the current owners into an internationally lauded rose garden, and function/wedding venue, the sense of history and heritage permeates the grounds.

There is a main house comprising 4 bedrooms with 4 en-suite bathrooms and a guest loo, 2 lounges, dining room, covered patio with fireplace, plunge pool, and equipped with solar panels, battery and inverter, gas stove, and supplied by 3 phase Eskom electricity. There is also an 83kVA diesel generator with auto-switchover. Adjoining the main house are a laundry room and 3 car, extra length garage. Additional buildings include the manager's cottage with a kitchen, lounge, covered patio, bedroom and bathroom; 3 cottages/bedsits at one stage serving as laboratories, store room and another 2 bedroom 2 bathroom cottage. Only the latter resides outside the electric fence that surrounds the roughly 4.5ha of main residence and function venue.

On the function venue side, it comprises the rose gardens, conservatory/chapel, reception area, store room, kitchen, guest ablutions, dams, lawns, pump room, water feature, and ample parking for up to roughly 65 vehicles. The venue itself can house up to a maximum of 200 guests, all year round thanks to an all-weather, covered/uncovered, heated and screened setup solution. Set in a natural bowl, the views from the venue encompass indigenously wooded hills and moody blue skies. Combined with the lovingly man-made gardens and landscaped grounds, it is an idyllic setting for couples to be wed, as well as corporate functions, galas, private events and the like.

In addition to the function venue and homestead in the Bosky Dell bowl, up on the plateau above lies a further magical piece of land, covered with 11.5ha of vineyards, a mixture of predominantly sauvignon blanc, with smaller sections of weisser Riesling and pinot noir. There are 2 dams, a storeroom and worker's ablution, and the potential for a plateau-top property that gorges itself on endless valley views that stretch in almost all directions, taking in the distant Outeniqua and Tsitsikamma mountains, as well as the sea as it makes land at Keurboomstrand and Nature's Valley. Between these two sections of the property lies the Boschrivier (Forest River), a perennial source of water to complement the various dams and the currently unused borehole.
