Own a Piece of Route 62 History
Historic Langkloof Property with Guest Accommodation Potential
Misgund, Langkloof | Approximately 10.4 hectares
The Old Kliphotel Country Store offers something difficult to recreate: a building dating back to 1931, a setting along Route 62, and space to imagine its next chapter.
Set against the mountains of the Langkloof, the property brings together a historic stone building, a separate residence, gardens and facilities that may appeal to a buyer seeking a country home with room for a personal project. Its existing guest rooms could also form the starting point for a hospitality venture, subject to the buyer’s own assessment.
The historic Kliphotel
The original building retains its traditional layout, with four furnished bedrooms along a corridor. Two bedrooms have en-suite shower bathrooms; the other two share shower facilities and the original chain-flush toilets. There are no televisions in the rooms, lending the space a simple, old-world character.
A communal kitchen and dining area, enclosed patio with an indoor braai, and wrap-around stoep give people places to gather. From the stoep, you can take in the gardens and surrounding Langkloof landscape.
A separate place to call home
The second residence provides privacy away from the historic building. It has an open-plan living and dining area, a modern kitchen and two spacious en-suite bedrooms. It could suit an owner who wants to live on the property while exploring how best to use the remaining facilities.
Space for different interests
Beyond the accommodation, the property includes approximately 3,000 established protea plants, a succulent nursery, three growing tunnels, a carpentry workshop and storage space. These features give a prospective buyer several directions to investigate, from gardening and making to small-scale agriculture or tourism.
The property also has a borehole, a dam servitude for irrigation, three-phase electricity, gas appliances and covered parking. Buyers should confirm the condition, capacity, rights and suitability of these features for their plans.
The Langkloof lifestyle
A boma, grapevine-covered pergola, established gardens and mountain views make it easy to picture time spent outdoors. The property offers the space to enjoy country living while considering what role the historic Kliphotel could play in the future.
Old Kliphotel is an opportunity to buy a distinctive place and give it a new purpose. If its history, setting and possibilities speak to you, contact me to arrange a viewing.
