Littlevlei - In the wide open space between the distant Kasteelberg to the north and the majestic Lemietberg mountain range to the east, this 21ha small farm is a very special little discovery. It is the smallest property in the neighbourhood and yet, with its stately big farmhouse, it firmly stands its ground. Agter Groenberg, where the farm is situated, is a quiet agricultural area just ten minutes from Wellington. Here you will find mostly grain farms and some fruit, vineyard and horses. Most of the mountainside and the land along its foothills falls within the Renosterveld Conservancy.
The farm enjoys an easy to work, level topography and its boundary is fully fenced for small game with a 1.4m high class 3 game fence in accordance with Cape Nature requirements. A post and rail horse paddock and enclosed orchard are located within close reach of the farmhouse. Beyond these, the farm has been divided into camps for the current livestock operation.
The property has a good supply of water. A very strong borehole, tested at + 40 000l/hr, supplies both the potable and agricultural water requirements. The farm also has a servitude to draw 150 000m from a neighbouring winter water-course. A main water supply line runs across a large portion of the property. Electricity is supplied by Eskom.
The farmhouse offers 460m of comfortable living space with a large verandah from which the views are wonderful in every direction. It is set on sprawling lawns with a swimming pool and garden pond. The house has a double volume entrance hall, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, guest toilet, study, open plan kitchen with separate scullery/ laundry and the generous living areas have direct access to the front verandah with built-in braai. These living rooms feature both an open fireplace and a closed wood burner for heating, and the kitchen has a working Aga stove. Furthermore, there are two very spacious carpeted rooms upstairs that could easily be converted into living spaces or en-suite bedrooms.
A small hen house, enclosed vegetable garden and water tower with an elevated 5 000 litre water storage tank (housing a garden tool room below) are all close to the house. The adjacent shed is 175m of open venue space with bar, indoor braai and bathroom facilities.
Additional accommodation is a well appointed 100m two bedroom flat on the far end of the shed. It has a north-west facing verandah, also with wonderful views of the mountains and neighbouring farmland.
With its practical and aesthetically pleasing infrastructure, the farm offers a very realistic country lifestyle whilst retaining the potential to expand into any number of agricultural or hospitality activities. Wellington golf course is ten minutes away and the town has all the major supermarkets, good restaurants, primary and tertiary institutions and medical facilities.
