In the heart of the Vaal River’s renowned watersports playground lies a remarkable hidden gem, its story stretching back to the early 1910s.

Nestled along the serene banks of the Vaal River, nestled in a private enclave this truly enchanting home blends timeless character with immaculate modern restoration. Thoughtfully renovated to preserve its original charm, the residence showcases exquisite pressed ceilings, gleaming wooden floors, lead-glass windows, solid wooden interior doors, two fireplaces, chandeliers and impressive architectural features.

The hallmark of this charming residence is its wrap-around patio, which can be accessed from the bedrooms, living areas, and study, each showcasing its own unique view of the tranquil surroundings and garden.

Beautiful gardens, 2 stables, a dressage arena, and a lunge ring enhance the character of this horse-loving family estate. A quaint two-bedroom cottage sits in a secluded part of the garden, offering exceptional privacy. A “hidden” dam supplies all the water needed to maintain the lush, manicured grounds. A beautiful pond that can house swans or ducks adds charm and interest to the garden.

The pièce de résistance is the Italian-crafted swimming pool, created entirely by hand. Each sandstone block carved with remarkable skill. A true masterpiece.

This is an ideal home for someone who enjoys old-world charm with all the modern amenities or the historic preservationist who is dedicated to maintaining the architectural and cultural integrity of an older home.

This charming home features a large kitchen that leads out onto an undercover entertainment area, a separate guest room with separate toilet and a fire pit situated in a secluded part of the property. The kitchen also offers a scullery and pantry. The home offers three spacious bedrooms and three well-appointed bathrooms, two en-suite. It also includes a large study and a cosy snug/small lounge that can easily be converted into an additional bedroom. With its flexible layout, the main home offers the potential to become a 4–5 bedroom residence, providing generous and comfortable living spaces tailored to your lifestyle. Two generous living areas with a fireplace sit adjacent to a large dining area with a cosy fireplace snug area with views and access to the back garden.

A large hangar can house a helicopter and all the watersport toys needed for a river lifestyle, such as boats, river cruisers, jetskis and water toys.

The property features a private panhandle entrance, while also benefiting from access through a 24-hour manned security estate, providing a boat launching service, superior security and safety.

This is a home that truly welcomes you with old-world charm, generous proportions, and an atmosphere of warmth and elegance — a rare opportunity to own a piece of Vaal River heritage.
