House for sale in Oudtshoorn

***EXCLUSIVE MANDATE***

Discover this impressive 1904 heritage property, set on an expansive 1,600 m² lush garden oasis, perfectly combining timeless historical elegance with an established income-generating opportunity. Successfully operating as a guest house for nine years, the property features a main residence alongside two independent, fully equipped cottages. Perfect for a multi-generational family compound or for continuing the self-catering guest house business. All furniture in the cottages is included in the sale.

Steeped in character and architectural history, the property offers rare versatility. Live in the main home while enjoying an income stream from the two self-contained cottages. The guest house is easily managed, with various systems already in place. The property oozes old-world charm, evident in its traditional stoeps and classic proportions, combined with modern convenience and great utility.

The main residence features three well-sized bedrooms, including a dedicated dressing room off the main bedroom, a full family bathroom and a convenient separate guest toilet. The heart of the home is an expansive, farmhouse-style eat-in kitchen that flows naturally into a cosy, comfortable lounge with a wood-burning fireplace. Outside, a traditional covered stoep offers the perfect vantage point overlooking the established garden and plunge pool.

Perfectly positioned a little way away from the main home to ensure privacy, the self-contained studio cottage offers an intimate, open-plan retreat with integrated sleeping and sitting areas, a fully equipped kitchenette, a private bathroom and its own secluded courtyard oasis.

The two-bedroom cottage is attached to the main home and boasts its own formal entrance hall, two bright bedrooms, a well-appointed bathroom, a cosy lounge and a charming eat-in kitchen that opens onto a private back courtyard, as well as a dedicated front stoep. Both cottages provide comfortable accommodation for guests or extended family.

The spectacular 1,600 m² grounds form a tranquil sanctuary, framed by mature trees, a beautifully landscaped garden and a sparkling above-ground plunge pool, perfect for hot Karoo summers. Practical features include a functional storage shed for tools and a sturdy carport for protected parking. Sustainability is built into the property with a 2,500-litre rainwater harvesting tank, fed by the expansive roofline, to help keep parts of the garden lush year-round. Security is equally important, with a fully fenced perimeter, an interior alarm system and external outdoor security detector beams.
