Well Located Farm Property For Sale in Ruiterbos, Mossel Bay

This stunning 97-hectare farm is a gem which seldom comes on the market at this price. It is located in the high-rainfall and sought after area of Ruiterbos, just before the Robinson pass 23 km from Hartenbos. It is conveniently situated just off the R328 (the road from Mossel Bay to Oudtshoorn), on the Leeukloof/Kleinbrak road. Exclusive Sole Mandate

If you are in the market for a farm property that is conveniently located in a good area just 20 minutes out of town without long gravel roads but still has the privacy and “tucked away” feeling with beautiful views of the mountains, ravines, indigenous forest and green pastures, then this is for you.
It is at the moment run as a Heavy Draft horse farm, since December 2000 and was previously run as a dairy farm. It provides a multitude of possibilities for future development in agri-tourism, because of its location and topography, and magnificent mountain views.
The property has a gorgeous guest lodge, two freestanding cottages, a separate laundry, a workshop, a farm butchery, stables and tack room, a feedstore and barn big enough to hold 2600 bales of lucerne. It has beautiful green grass pasture camps which have a combination of bonnox and electric fencing. It also has lovely natural fynbos veld, stunning ravines that have large areas of indigenous forest with big old Yellowwood trees and streams running along the Northern and Eastern boundary, all of which make for existing delightful hiking trails and possible future development of a 4x4 trail. The farm has beautiful views of the mountains running all around the north, east and west and to the south Mossel Bay and a glimpse of the sea. It has a large variety of birds and free ranging bush buck, duiker and other wildlife species.

The colonial farm style guest lodge is run as a well-known, self-catering or fully catered lodge, that is accredited by the Guest House Guild on the Garden Route and rated as Comfort/Luxury, which is the equivalent of 4 stars.
There is a beautiful 25-meter-long, ozone, chlorine-free swimming pool which ensures a healthy swim with amazing north-facing views to the spectacular Outeniqua Mountains. An ozone generator and pool filter ensure clean and healthy ozone-enriched water in the swimming pool.
The guest lodge has a reception area, a spacious north facing, open plan dining area seating 12 or 14 people, with a massive couch set in a half circle of windows opening onto exquisite views of the pool and mountain. Just off the dining area is a large chef’s kitchen where all the magic happens. Granite tops, a spacious pantry, large gas stoves and a big industrial extractor fan to ensure a smoke free kitchen when those steaks are sizzling on the gas stoves. It has a single room opening off the reception area, that can either be used as a bedroom, or an office, but is currently utilized for storage. This room also opens onto big en-suite bedroom with a full bathroom that also, opens up to the main veranda with direct access to the swimming pool, and three self- catering suites; the Family suite( 2 bedrooms), the Blue suite and the Honeymoon suite, all have their own private verandas and separate entrances, detailed below.

The accommodation is spacious, serene and beautiful – even if you don’t leave your room, you will have a holiday. All the suites have separate entrances and private verandas. The guest farm has been awarded the prestigious Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2020, meaning that reviews from millions of Tripadvisor travellers place us in the top 10% worldwide.
The bathrooms all have showers and Victorian Slipper Baths. Each kitchen is equipped with an oven with a two-plate hob, a microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster and all the necessary kitchen utensils, and each suite has a braai (barbeque) area with a braai grid.
