2 Bed House in Montagu

2 1 1 1 167 m²

Own a part of Montagu''s Cultural History! Francois Krige was a famous South African artist who moved to Montagu 1967 and lived here until his death in 1994. His studio at 37 Long Street has been re-purposed and now functions as a gallery showing some of his work that is for sale. Many members of the Montagu community sat for Krige''s portraits, including domestic workers, gardeners, the town butcher, and Koos Kok, the curator of the town''s botanical gardens. He also painted still-life and landscapes.

Charming Layout: The home includes a front porch with a lounge, a dining room with a fireplace, two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a north-facing sunroom that opens onto a vine-covered pergola (stoepie) overlooking the garden and a small kitchen.

Historic Garage: A single garage, originally the waen-huis, now serves as storage.

This property is a treasure for those who cherish history and South African art, blending nostalgic charm with cultural significance. Don''t miss the chance to own a piece of Montagu''s rich heritage!
