4 Bed House in Prince Albert
On a tree-filled corner stand of 1415 m, in the prestigious town of Prince Albert - well-known for its natural beauty, architectural gems, artistic and cultural vibrancy and creative energy you will find this interesting property offering three cottages and three garages.
The Main Cottage is of great historic value with its original kitchen and bedroom, with its clay walls, poplar beams under reed ceilings, and wooden shutters dating from 1873.
Through the years it has been transformed into a quaint dwelling, with a lounge where the fireplace is the main feature.
From the front door there is a beautiful view towards the so-called Platberg in the distance the real farm-style kitchen has an open heart and the comfort of a double basin sink.
The walk-through study has access to a free-spirited bathroom, and the main bedroom has a separate dressing room opening through double steel/glass doors to an ever-evolving courtyard with a true Karoo feel.
An en-suite garden guest room with a braai area completes the picture.
The Second Cottage is a private bachelors apartment with good bathroom and kitchen. The bedroom opens up to a pleasant garden area through double steel/ glass doors and there is also a cozy reading corner under a shady Karee
The Third Cottage is a super-spacious and welcoming home with open-plan lounge and dining area with super fireplace gully kitchen and neat bathroom. The covered back stoep looks out over a small garden with plunge pool. Off-street parking.
The Studio/Wine cellar/Treatment room is a bonus! Also dating from the late 1800s, it is a quirky space with a built stair case to the deck overlooking the top of Swartberg Pass.
Ample outbuildings for storage.
If you are interested in living and entertaining against the palette of simplicity, living the individualistic country dream without names dropping, status statements and trendy labels, you can come and live out your fantasy on this corner property and if you want to have a base and commute, it is a mere four hours drive to Cape Town, two hours to George and one hour to Oudtshoorn.
Now is the time to investigate this opportunity for extended living or to continue renting out the two newer cottages (built about 25 years ago) permanently, rendering a good monthly income.
