2.8 ha Land available in Franschhoek
WHERE VINEYARD, MOUNTAIN & LIFESTYLE MEET An exceptional opportunity in Franschhoek
Set against the magnificent backdrop of the Franschhoek mountains, Maidenshope presents a rare opportunity to acquire approximately 2.8 hectares of prime land in one of the Cape Winelands most sought-after locations.
Originally part of the renowned La Motte estate, the property enjoys an exceptional position approximately 6 km from the centre of Franschhoek Village, approaching from the north-west, with direct frontage and access onto the R45, the main route into Franschhoek.
Approximately 2.5 hectares are planted to trellised Pinotage vines, supported by drip irrigation and currently producing an estimated 15 metric tonnes per annum. The established vineyard adds an attractive agricultural component, while the property''s location and natural setting offer significant potential for future development, subject to the necessary planning and municipal approvals.
Water is secured through an exclusive use water servitude over the neighbouring property, with further potential for additional borehole exploration should more water resources be required.
An Eskom transformer is situated on the property''s boundary, with an application required for connection.
