8.7 ha Smallholding in Wilderness Outlying

Exclusive Mandate

Between Sedgefield and Wilderness lies a truly remarkable 8.7-hectare retreat, where sweeping views of the Outeniqua Mountains and shimmering lakes meet the quiet beauty of natural fynbos. At its heart stands a 540m² home elegant, contemporary, and designed to bring nature right into its living spaces.

Stepping into the home, a boardwalk framed by landscaped gardens and soft lighting leads you to the front entrance. Inside, a spacious lounge with a gas fireplace opens directly onto a wide undercover veranda and the pool terrace. The 14-metre rim-flow lap pool, recently redone with beautiful mosaic tiles, stretches out towards the horizon, its edge blending seamlessly with the lake views beyond.

The house is thoughtfully divided into two wings. On the eastern side, youll find three en-suite bedrooms, each with its own private courtyard garden. The main suite is a sanctuary of its own, with a full bathroom, heated towel rails, sliding doors onto the courtyard, and even a secluded outdoor shower. Imagine mornings spent with the doors open, sunlight streaming in, and the scent of fynbos all around. A gym with sauna, its own bathroom, and direct garden access make wellness part of everyday living, while a nearby wine cellar keeps your collection at the perfect temperature. For plant lovers, a built-in greenhouse sits just off the main bedroom an ideal space for orchids, exotics, or year-round greenery.

The western wing is centered around family and function. The double garage leads into a large laundry and pantry area, flowing into a beautifully equipped kitchen with a breakfast nook. This space opens seamlessly into the dining room, where every meal is enjoyed against a backdrop of gardens, lakes, and the mountains beyond. The adjacent family room provides a warm, inviting space for cozy evenings, with a private study tucked just off the side for those who need to work from home.

Every detail has been carefully chosen for comfort and convenience. Granite floor tiles with underfloor heating run throughout the house. Expansive windows draw in the northern sun, while motorized blinds offer effortless privacy at the touch of a button. The indigenous gardens are water-wise yet lush, supported by an automated irrigation system and advanced water infrastructure from a borehole with full filtration to a large rainwater reservoir and reverse osmosis system inside the home.

Additional features include a neat staff studio cottage with kitchenette and shower, as well as a staff toilet and basin outside the laundry courtyard. A pump house with tanks and filtration neatly manages the water supply. The property is securely accessed by two gates the first automated entrance from the N2, and the second leading into the fenced two-hectare homestead area.

This is more than a home its a lifestyle of understated luxury. A place where wellness, beauty, and functionality are woven together in perfect balance. Whether youre swimming laps as the sun sets over the lakes, cultivating orchids in the greenhouse, or gathering around the fireplace with loved ones, this Wilderness retreat offers a life connected to both nature and comfort in every sense.
