Verlorenvlei Farm, Elands Bay, Elands Bay
*Sole Mandate*
Imagine waking up to panoramic views towards the Atlantic Ocean, with game grazing across the natural grass plains or enjoying the tranquillity of living alongside the beautiful Verlorenvlei.
A truly exceptional 1,785-hectare West Coast farm, situated close to Elands Bay and adjoining the renowned Verlorenvlei, one of the Western Cape’s most significant wetlands. The property comprises two title deeds and offers an outstanding combination of natural beauty, privacy, accommodation and development potential.
Approximately 500 hectares have recently been enclosed with a 2.4-metre Class 1 Bonnox game fence, approved by Environmental Services. A further approximately 1,300 hectares consist of natural veld, which has not carried livestock for many years, creating an exceptional opportunity for conservation, game, lifestyle or agricultural use.
Natural Beauty & Water
The game-fenced section enjoys spectacular views towards the Atlantic Ocean, while part of the farm borders directly onto the beautiful Verlorenvlei, a Ramsar-protected wetland renowned for its exceptional birdlife. Verlorenvlei is home to more than 189 recorded bird species, including flamingos, pelicans and the rare Black Harrier, making the property particularly appealing to nature lovers, birdwatchers and conservation-minded buyers.
The farm has four boreholes, two of which are equipped with solar-powered pumps.
