Description

Discover an exceptional lifestyle and investment opportunity in the majestic Bulb Capital of the World, surrounded by expansive open landscapes and endless clear Karoo skies. Offering absolute peace, privacy and a welcome escape from the bustle of city life, this remarkable property seamlessly combines historic character, refined country living and outstanding guest-accommodation potential. Dating back to 1909, it has been meticulously restored, repaired and, where necessary, rebuilt by the current owner, with exceptional attention to detail and precision done to preserve the building’s original character while enhancing its functionality and longevity. Electrical wiring and plumbing have been newly installed for this historic property to benefit from modern infrastructure. Original sandstone walls, wooden door and glasswork entrance, restored origan pine floors and other period features preserve the authentic charm and character of a bygone era. The spacious open-plan kitchen, complete with built-in braai, flows into a comfortable living area with fireplace, providing an engaging venue for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the uninterrupted Karoo landscape. Added to this, a carefully curated collection of decorative pieces, selected furniture and original memorabilia dating back to the early 1900s is available for inclusion to this sale. These treasured items offer the discerning purchaser an opportunity to enhance the property’s historical ambience. This is far more than a beautifully restored country home — it is a preserved piece of Karoo heritage, offering the rare opportunity to own a property where history, craftsmanship, tranquillity and modern comfort come together. The main residence comprises four spacious bedrooms, two with en-suite bathrooms, plus a separate bathroom. Purpose-built sandstone construction, blinds and double volume ceiling with insulation provide natural comfort during the warm Northern Cape summers.
