Ferme Knysna

Set in the peaceful Knysna countryside, this 15-hectare lifestyle farm offers a rare blend of privacy, expansive lagoon views, and true off-grid living. Elevated to take full advantage of its position, the property enjoys beautiful lagoon and countryside views while remaining easily accessible via a servitude road. Fully fenced and thoughtfully laid out, it provides both security and a sense of space that is increasingly hard to find. The home is designed for comfortable, versatile living, with three bedrooms in the main house and two bathrooms, one of the bedrooms currently being used as a study or home office. The living areas are open-plan, with the lounge and kitchen flowing seamlessly onto a large patio, creating an easy indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The kitchen is finished in a modern farmhouse style and serves as the heart of the home, while a built-in braai is currently being added to the patio, further enhancing the entertainment offering. A swimming pool complements the outdoor space, with a heating system already installed that simply requires reconnection. Above the main house, a separate fourth bedroom is configured as a private flatlet, complete with its own bathroom, and a private entrance. The flatlet enjoys its own entertainer’s deck with a gas braai, perfectly positioned to take in the expansive lagoon views. This setup offers excellent flexibility for extended family, guests, or rental income, all while maintaining privacy from the main residence. Practicality and self-sufficiency are key features of the property. Water is well catered for with approximately 80,000 litres of storage, filtered and pumped directly into the home. The energy setup is a standout feature, built around a 14kVA Victron inverter system with two batteries and 12 roof-mounted solar panels, comfortably powering the entire home as well as the electric fencing. A 6500 Riobi generator is included as an additional backup, ensuring reliability in all conditions. Further features include three garages, two geysers (one solar and electric with switchable functionality, and a separate electric geyser on the other side of the home), a partially completed storage building with materials already on site. Connectivity is taken care of with Seanet WiFi installed, along with an integrated Allsound system for added convenience. The land itself is well suited to a lifestyle farming approach, offering space and infrastructure for further development if desired. A dam has already been planned but not yet constructed. Included in the sale are valuable pieces of equipment, (Tractor, Chipper, TLB, Dozer) that significantly enhance the functionality and appeal of the farm. This is a property that offers far more than just a beautiful setting. It combines solid infrastructure, energy independence, and flexible living options, creating a space that can be enjoyed immediately while still offering room to grow and enhance over time.
