1.4 ha Farm in Hopefield

Bring your happy heart to this wonderful place.

Some homes are merely lived in. This one is inheritedby history, by light, and by the slow unfurling of the Cape countryside, stretching from vineyard to shoreline. Built in 1852 and once home to Dr. Karl Bremer, former Minister of Health, this restored farmhouse whispers heritage. It wears its history unapologetically in original timber floors, fireplaces built for long winters, and rooms that have watched more than a century of Cape stories unfold.

Today, it opens a new chapter: five bedrooms, each dressed by a different hand six bathrooms finished to a standard that belongs on a glossy page and two kitchens built for a household that never wants for space. Step outside, and The Barn offers three further en-suite rooms, ready-made for guests, retreats, or an Airbnb income stream that practically writes itself.

Theres a saltwater pool for slow mornings, a pool house made for stillness and yoga, and manicured gardens fed by two private boreholesbecause a property like this shouldnt depend on anyones water table. This is a rare kind of asset, one that flexes as beautifully as it photographs: a wellness retreat, a boutique rehab facility, a step-down care residence, or an events venue with a story no marketing team could invent. Or simply: a farm-style life, an hour from Cape Town, where wildflowers replace traffic and the local market is the Sunday plan.

Hopefield is having a moment: coastal, characterful, and close enough to the city to matter, yet far enough to feel like an escape. Properties like this do not come to market twice.
