Step out onto the stoep and nothing stands between you and the view. It's a large stoep, made for long Karoo afternoons, with uninterrupted views stretching out ahead and a lush, green garden spread out below. Two sets of double wooden doors open onto it from different parts of the house, so on warm days the inside and outside simply become one. Green lawn, established planting and open sky: this is the side of Klein Karoo living that surprises people who have only driven through.
Inside, the house is all light and space. Wooden beams run overhead and cool cement floors run underfoot throughout the home, and the windows fill every room with natural light from morning to evening. Built in the classic Karoo way, it stays pleasantly cool on hot summer days.
The kitchen, lounge and dining area flow together as one open-plan space, with brick-finish walls in the kitchen and lounge adding warmth and texture, and a ceiling fan in the lounge to keep the air moving on summer afternoons. The cooking, the conversation and the view all happen in the same room. A separate scullery keeps the washing up and the clutter out of sight, so the living space stays calm whether it's a quiet supper for two or a table full of friends.
There are two bedrooms. The main bedroom is light and peaceful, with a ceiling fan for the warmest nights. A separate study or work room gives you a proper place to work from home, paint, sew or simply close the door on a project.
The home has two bathrooms, and one of them is a real feature, finished in a beautiful Victorian style with a Victorian bath, the kind you sink into at the end of a long day.
At approximately 140m² on an erf of approximately 1 668m², there's room to breathe both inside and out. The erf is being subdivided from a larger 2 974m² property, and the final extent is subject to subdivision approval and survey. The garden is also a small orchard, with two fig trees, two lemon, two orange, two peach, three almond and nine olive trees.
Light, space, a green garden and a view you'll never tire of. Viewings by appointment.
