Dunvegan not only offers a premium lifestyle but is also committed to eco-efficiency through utilising combined electric, solar, and wind-powered energy sources including double glazed windows. A reliable spring water source, underfloor heating throughout, a heated rim-flow pool, sunken jacuzzi, and a helicopter landing pad on the front lawn underscore the property's commitment to luxury and sustainability. This unique oasis ensures a secure environment, complemented by strict building restrictions that preserve the awe-inspiring views. Residents have access to 800 hectares of jeep tracks and mountain bike trails, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. The property is strategically located near the Elgin Valley Wine Route, Hermanus and the famous Whale Trail, offering a blend of tranquillity, convenience and adventure.

Farmhouse with garden Stellenbosch (South Africa)
Exclusively presented by Sotheby’s International Realty: This remarkable lifestyle wine estate privately nestled at the tip of a charming valley which is deemed to be of heritage significance due to the cultural-historical past of agricultural activities. The exceptional location along the foothills of the majestic Simonsberg Mountain offers excellent terroir characteristics, biodiversity and panoramic sights – the latter including both mountain and ocean views. The 12ha of manicured wine-grape vineyards include the noble varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Shiraz & Petit Verdot cultivars, all being in optimal production cycle. Water resources comprise natural spring- and mountain streams, boreholes and a dam, as well as a significant allocation from the local irrigation scheme. An additional 13ha comprises fallow land for future vineyard expansion. Unlocked prospects are in the potential to develop an exclusive-style boutique wine cellar, possibly also complimented by a hospitality segment – there are several dwellings and cottages that could be converted. If tourism is the intention, this should further benefit from the directly-adjacent renowned health-spa. High property-perimeter security measures within a tranquil setting and complete privacy contribute to the expectations normally associated with a lifestyle property of this nature. Detailed information and purchase price will be shared upon formal engagement.
