Home with Atmosphere and a Lovely Garden in the Bothasrus Area of Despatch
Features include:
• Double garage plus a carport for four vehicles in front
• Beautiful, irrigated garden
• Freshly painted throughout
• Comprehensive alarm system with beams at the front, back, and upstairs
• Fire extinguishers
• 15 kW solar system with 16 panels, one inverter, and five 25,000L water tanks (two connected to the kitchen) — all included in the sale
The inviting tiled front veranda leads to a wooden deck on the left side of the house. Below the deck is parking for two additional vehicles — easily usable as a workshop.
Inside, a tiled entrance hall welcomes you:
• To the left, a formal carpeted lounge (with parquet flooring underneath) and a beautiful fireplace set against a warm stone wall.
• To the right, a study, currently used as storage, and access to the garage.
• Additional storage space under the staircase.
The passage leads to a dining room that flows into a spacious open-plan snooker room with slate flooring. There’s also a built-in bar with basin (previously domestic quarters, which can easily be converted back) and a guest toilet.
A 4x4m Wendy house outside provides extra storage.
The snooker room leads to an indoor braai room with a sliding door to the pool area. Next to the pool is a workbench area (currently used for meat processing by the owner, an avid hunter), covered with a thatch roof. The fibreglass pool is in working order. To the right of the pool is a lapa (4x4m covered braai area) — the thatch has been recently combed.
The outdoor space is tranquil, with a high ivy-covered wall behind the lapa, ensuring privacy. Friendly neighbours and an outside toilet complete the picture.
The kitchen features built-in cupboards, air conditioning, a gas stove with electric oven and hob, eye-level ovens (top and bottom), and a tiled laundry and scullery with more cupboards.
Upstairs (via the staircase from the entrance hall):
• A spare bedroom with balcony and built-in cupboards (carpeted)
• A second bedroom with air conditioning, built-in cupboards, and shared balcony with the spare room
• A third spacious bedroom with a study nook, small kitchenette, ceiling fan, TV point, air conditioning, built-in cupboards, and carpet flooring
• Separate toilet and bathroom with cupboards, corner bath, shower, and basin
The main bedroom has its own balcony, air conditioning, ample built-in cupboards, and an en-suite bathroom (with bath, shower, basin, and extra cupboards). A door from the bathroom leads to the attic, featuring a wooden floor.
This 4-bedroom home offers flexibility and can easily be adapted into two separate living levels, making it perfect for a large or extended family.
