Livestock farm for sale in Sedgefield

Exceptional off-grid waterfront estate on Ruigtevlei
Set amidst the natural beauty of the Garden Route, this remarkable 9.5-hectare waterfront estate offers a rare combination of complete self-sufficiency, luxurious country living and direct access to Ruigtevlei. Completed in 2018 by a master builder with uncompromising attention to quality, the property enjoys an elevated position with sweeping views across the lake, estuaries and the Outeniqua Mountains.
Located approximately 9 km from Sedgefield and easily accessed via a tarred road, the estate is both private and conveniently situated. A winding paved driveway leads through the property to the impressive north-facing residence, where generous proportions and seamless indoor-outdoor living create an atmosphere of relaxed sophistication.
The main home of approximately 366 m² comprises a luxurious main suite with dressing room and full en-suite bathroom, three additional bedrooms, two further bathrooms, a separate study, gymnasium and a private guest suite. Expansive open-plan living and entertainment areas flow onto patios and decks designed to capture the magnificent mountain and lake views.
Outdoor living is central to the home's appeal, with a splash pool on the sheltered northern side and tranquil entertainment spaces overlooking the water to the south. Adjacent to the residence, a substantial greenhouse with irrigation, together with an established orchard of fruit and nut trees, supports a productive and sustainable lifestyle.
Near the entrance, a well-constructed workshop and garage building incorporates a ground-floor flatlet and two beautifully finished self-catering apartments above, each with private gardens and braai areas. The strong demand for country accommodation in the area offers excellent income-generating potential.
The estate is entirely off the grid, powered by three solar systems and supplied by two boreholes and approximately 48,000 litres of rainwater storage, ensuring reliable year-round independence.
Fully fenced and divided into three paddocks, the property lends itself to small-scale farming, equestrian pursuits or boutique agricultural ventures. Of particular significance is the approximately 2.5-hectare waterfront section on Ruigtevlei, which has approved rights for a 110 m² cottage and provides direct access to the lake for canoeing and sailing.
Properties of this calibre, with genuine waterfront frontage, exceptional infrastructure and complete self-sufficiency, seldom come to market in this sought-after area.
