Gorgeous old Colonial home on 3 Hecares of usable land

A mature palm-lined driveway welcomes you to this magnicent 5 bedroom Colonial home with a wraparound veranda. Constructed of magnificent Pietermaritzburg red brick, with beautiful restored oregon floors, windows and doorframes, vast rooms and massively high ceilings, it has two huge lounges with working fireplaces. three bathrooms (needing modernisation) and five bedrooms. It has an old fashioned but very large kitchen with a separate pantry and scullery.

An enclosed section of the veranda at the side of the house leads to a covered built in braai and huge covered entertainment area with a a bar overlooking a large pool.

Next to the main house is a one bed rondavel with a bathroom, and a building containing storage areas and staff bathrooms. Then there is a two room struture, also built fron red brick which was previously used as an area with direct access to cages when the property operated as a very successful exotic bird farm.

There is a separate block with staff accommodation, behind which lies a huge level area, for grazing, crops or tunnels.

A big barn, previously a milking shed, is attached to a workshop and a large undercover storage area which also houses three large brick water reservoir, fed by spring water that is pumped up from the stream (please note that the pump at the stream needs to be replaced).There is, however, a functional borehole and multiple JoJo tanks that provide water to the property.

There is also a complelety separate three bedroom home with three bathrooms and a private fenced garden.

The grounds are absolutely stunning, although a little neglected. A large aviary and multiple cages are still on site, and could either be utilised or sold.

This is a truly special property, just 10 minutes from Willowton on the Wartburg road. Peacful, quiet, characterful and very versatile. Potentially a wonderful guest house, functions venue or unique family home. It would also be ideal for smallscale farming or horses, or resurrected as a bird farm.

Just fifteen minutes from the N3. Your escape to the country!
