The second oldest home in Mostertsdrift, lovingly restored to its original Victorian glory.
A Century of
Gracious Living
in the Heart of
Stellenbosch
Built in 1904, Stellenbosch Manor stands as the second oldest home in the leafy Mostertsdrift suburb — a distinguished Victorian residence that has presided over the Winelands for more than a century. Its wide verandas, tall sash windows, and graceful proportions speak to an era when homes were built to endure and to delight.
In 1996, the property was acquired by the Oosthuizen family of MolenVliet Wine Estate — custodians of one of the Cape Winelands' most celebrated wine and hospitality legacies. Recognising the Manor's extraordinary heritage, the family undertook a meticulous restoration that returned every room, corridor, and garden feature to its original deserved glory, blending Victorian elegance with the comforts that today's discerning traveller expects.
The result is a property that feels both timeless and alive. Nine individually appointed en-suite rooms — each with its own character — open onto private balconies, tranquil verandas, or manicured garden spaces threaded by the gentle sound of the millstream.
Situated in the prestigious Mostertsdrift neighbourhood, the Manor places guests within comfortable walking distance of the Stellenbosch city centre, acclaimed restaurants, the Stellenbosch Botanical Garden, and the town's world-renowned wine culture. Cape Town is just 45 minutes away, and the celebrated Franschhoek wine valley is a short scenic drive through the Berg River mountains.
"Backed by the Oosthuizen family's generation-deep commitment to world-class hospitality, Stellenbosch Manor offers something rare — a home with a soul, where every stay is both a privilege and a pleasure."
