Guesthouse for sale in Haenertsburg

Exclusive Mandate

Nestled within the scenic mountains and lush forests of Haenertsburg, this exceptional estate offers a rare opportunity in a prime location. The property comprises a spacious main residence with four generous bedrooms in an open-plan design, as well as a modern, self-catering two-bedroom cottage—both enjoying breathtaking panoramic views extending toward the Tzaneen Dam.

In addition to the main house and cottage, there are two large wooden log cabins—one fully functional, and the other requiring some restoration—perfect for conversion into self-catering units. These also benefit from outstanding views. The property also includes three additional buildings currently used as staff quarters, a workshop, and laundry facilities.

The main residence is thoughtfully positioned to maximize the views and features a luxurious open-plan main bedroom with full en-suite and private balcony. Bedroom 2 is designed to accommodate a queen bed and has its own en-suite. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are spacious and modern, with Bedroom 4 offering a walk-in closet. These two rooms share a stylish, full bathroom.

The kitchen is sleek and modern with wood finishes and flows into a dining space and cozy reading nook. A second large living space doubles as a dining and TV lounge, leading to a games room and fitted bar area with a fireplace. The formal lounge is anchored by a large fireplace and opens to a wooden deck and entertainment area via stack doors, showcasing the stunning garden and views.

The detached self-catering cottage is equally impressive—modern and private, with two bedrooms, a main en-suite that opens via French doors to the deck, a second bathroom, and kitchen, and dining areas, with an open-plan lounge, that leads onto the deck. Ideal for guests or as an income-generating rental, it provides a private retreat away from the main house.

The total property spans 33 hectares, composed of two adjacent parcels under a single title deed. It includes indigenous forest, walking paths, and abundant natural beauty. Sold as a going concern (zero-rated VAT if buyer is VAT-registered), the estate offers excellent value and potential in the hospitality market. Water is supplied year-round by a reliable natural spring, that feeds ample storage for household use with a pressure pump and filter, and separate storage for garden use. The three-phase electrical system is supplemented by solar power, inverter and battery system.

Currently accommodating between 18 and 24 guests, this property offers strong investment value with immediate income potential and future expansion possibilities. The demand for hospitality in the region is consistently high, making this a prime opportunity for a buyer seeking lifestyle, income, and long-term capital growth—all in one extraordinary mountain setting.
