Beyond the Horizon of City Life: Where Pine Forests Meet Mountain Views and Living Has No Limits
Description
EXCLUSIVE SOLE MANDATE! Tucked against dense northern forestry near Fancourt, this exceptional 17.19-hectare smallholding offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, versatile accommodation and established infrastructure, all within easy reach of George. Nestled along the pine forestry on its northern boundary, the property provides a true Garden Route country lifestyle, with direct access to the surrounding wilderness and breathtaking 360-degree views extending from the majestic Outeniqua Mountains to the ocean from the property's highest crest. Whether you envision a peaceful rural retreat, an off-grid lifestyle, a boutique agricultural venture, multi-generational family living or an income-generating property with multiple dwellings, this versatile smallholding provides an outstanding foundation for a range of possibilities. The main residence is a warm and inviting three-bedroom timber-frame home, featuring striking exposed-truss ceilings, spacious open-plan living areas and a modern kitchen with a separate scullery. All three bedrooms open directly onto an expansive wrap-around deck, making the most of the surrounding natural setting. The home includes a main en-suite bedroom and guest bathroom, while a private, approximately 3,000 m² fenced garden provides a generous and secure outdoor space. A separate two-bedroom timber cottage offers excellent flexibility for extended family, guests or rental accommodation. The self-contained cottage features two en-suite bedrooms, open-plan living areas, a kitchen with separate scullery, double carport, front sun deck and its own approximately 2,000 m² enclosed garden. A cosy studio cabin provides additional accommodation or a peaceful work-from-home space, complete with its own private deck. Adjacent to the cabin is a practical timber utility block incorporating an external bathroom, laundry area, additional toilet and gas geyser, all positioned within its own fenced area. The property also offers impressive infrastructure for those seeking space to work, create or store equipment. A substantial 200 m² paved timber-and-IBR workshop provides an ideal setting for hobbies, artisan work, classic car storage or other projects, while an additional 54 m² three-sided shed provides valuable storage for farm implements and equipment. Approximately 3.5 hectares of the property are securely perimeter-fenced and accessed through heavy-duty sliding gates. Well-engineered internal roads incorporate proper water-runoff management, providing practical year-round access throughout the property. Water is another significant feature, with an earth dam, natural streams and a seasonal winter waterfall contributing to the property's established water resources. These features create excellent potential for gardens, livestock, horses or small-scale agricultural activities, subject to the necessary approvals and water-use rights. Adding to the property's natural appeal is a private pocket of indigenous forest, providing a beautiful backdrop and attracting abundant birdlife. From the rear boundary, residents can step directly into the surrounding forestry and access hundreds of kilometres of trails, ideal for walking, horse riding and mountain biking. This is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial smallholding that combines tranquility, space, natural beauty and lifestyle flexibility with the convenience of being just minutes from George and its leading schools, shopping centres, medical facilities and other amenities. A unique Garden Route property offering the freedom of country living, exceptional outdoor opportunities and the potential to create a truly self-sufficient lifestyle.
