An example of quintessential country living, the estate is comprised of a manor house, two cottages each with 2 bedrooms, a stable block with 64 stables, an 8 hectare vineyard, managers cottage, workshop, hay barn, pump house, dam and a private jetty.

Comments Helen Ward of Auction Alliance, ‘’The property, known as Bitou House, has caused a stir amongst local and international investors, and has already attracted massive attention due to the superior features that the estate offers.’’

Situated on 15.54ha of prime land, the expansive estate enjoys exceptional panoramic views of the Bitou River and surrounds and features superb equestrian facilities.

The well-appointed manor house includes 3 en-suite bedrooms, a powder room,  spacious open-plan living area with a large fireplace and exposed solid wood trusses and a modern, fully refurbished kitchen fitted with a restaurant-sized oven, gas hob, double fridges and freezers and a walk-in pantry. An additional, separate television room opens onto a covered internal courtyard area which boasts lush vegetation. A spacious, wood finished bar area opens onto a large rim flow swimming pool and courtyard area and wooden walkways lead onto a private jetty overlooking the Bitou River. The property features an additional swimming pool which is situated in a fully-paved area and includes a band-stand for viewing purposes.

The laundry block consists of the manager’s office, 3 garages, 2 staff rooms, large storeroom and expansive laundry area with speed queen washing machines. The 2 bedroomed manager’s house overlooks the stable block and vineyards. The stable block features 64 stables, 2 tack rooms, wash bay for horses, players change rooms and a separate hay barn which includes a staff recreation area, workshop, pump house and dam.

The vineyards include approximately 8ha of Sauvignon Blanc under vines that are 2 years old. Comments Helen Ward of Auction Alliance, “It is anticipated that the vines will ultimately produce in the region of 55 000 x 750 ml of Sauvignon Blanc, which offers investors with an ideal boutique vineyard opportunity, specifically due to Plettenberg Bay being regarded as an established wine producing area”.

The estate’s surrounding fields have been planted with oats and the property is fully fenced with white post and rail fencing.  Adds Ward, “It is rare for estates of this caliber to enter the market as properties of this exclusive nature are often held tightly. Prominently positioned in the heart of South Africa’s premier polo destination, the selection of facilities and panoramic views offered by this prestigious property make it one of the most anticipated lots coming up for auction during the June platinum property auction”.
