Joint mandate. This magnificent Heritage property oozes character and authentic Old Worlde charm. The warm ambience of wood and the nostalgia of true hospitality envelop one immediately, and one is struck by the tasteful blending of old and new. Lovingly renovated and maintained, the property is in excellent condition. The main house has a brand new roof with extra thick insulation, and the interior has been freshly painted. There is a wonderful indoor outdoor flow, with the lounge and bar opening to a large entertainment deck with beautiful lagoon views. The bedrooms lead to outdoor patios or stoeps. The setting is peaceful, with Coucals and Knysna Loeries visiting regularly from the nearby Pledge Nature Reserve.
The two cottages are equally charming, and cleverly positioned to allow
privacy for all three buildings - they have already been subdivided, so can be sold off individually. The cottages, and a guest suite with its own entrance in the main house, provide the option of generating an easy extra income from short or long term letting, or serving as a multi-generational family compound. With perimeter walls, pallisade fencing and electric wiring, it could also be ideal as secure cluster living for a group of friends. The property offers huge potential as a work from home business, being only a 2min drive from the CBD.
