History: Granted in 1715 to Hendrik Oostwald Eksteen. When Lichtenstein and Holman stopped at the farm it belonged to Jacob Laubscher. It has been in the Kotze family since 1834.

This T - T shaped Cape Dutch house, with its impressive concavo-convex gables, was probably erected in 1789. At that time the property belonged to Jacob Laubscher who, according to Lichtenstein, was one of the most prosperous colonists in the country.
