Charming 1937 Homestead with Guesthouse Potential in the Heart of Karkloof
Step into a piece of Midlands history with this stunning 7-hectare property, originally built in 1937. Nestled near the renowned Karkloof Forest, this estate perfectly blends classic charm with modern potential, offering endless opportunities for country living, hospitality ventures, or both.
The main house features five generously sized bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. These bathrooms are thoughtfully designed, with handmade basins crafted by a local potter, adding a personal touch to the home’s already unique character. The expansive farmhouse kitchen is equipped with industrial appliances, including a six-burner gas stove and grill, perfect for catering to large gatherings. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy study with its own fireplace, offering a tranquil space for working from home.
The living spaces are equally inviting, with rich wooden flooring throughout and large sash windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The double lounge, featuring two fireplaces, leads onto a wraparound L-shaped veranda that overlooks the expansive lawn. This outdoor space offers the perfect spot to unwind while enjoying views of the lush surroundings, frequented by bushbuck and a variety of birdlife.
Beyond the main house, there are several outbuildings, including a large shed, workshop, and carports. The property also includes a charming three-bedroom cottage, providing additional living space for guests or the potential for rental income. The cottage, nestled near a perennial stream that runs through the property, adds to the overall appeal, offering secluded living in a tranquil setting.
The property's location makes it an ideal destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike, with nearby attractions such as the Karkloof Canopy Tours, mountain biking trails, and the scenic Midlands Meander. Whether you envision operating a guesthouse, hosting events, or simply embracing a peaceful country lifestyle, this property offers both history and endless potential, all just a short drive from Howick.
