Tucked away on a generous erf, lies a rare opportunity: two enchanting cottages and a freestanding studio, each brimming with charm, character, and the kind of peaceful simplicity that invites you to slow down and truly live.

Whether you're a painter, writer, dreamer, or someone simply seeking a sanctuary from the bustle of everyday life, this property offers something unique – a lifestyle that whispers serenity and creativity.

✨ Two Cottages – Each with Its Own Story
The Onion Barn, the larger of the two, greets you with its warm, rustic charm. Thick walls and handcrafted Oregon pine shutters, ceilings, and doors set the tone for this timeless space. The wraparound stoep offers the perfect spot to sip tea and watch the world go by, while a private entrance gate and garden create a calm refuge. And when summer days stretch long and warm, take a refreshing dip in the large circular reservoir nestled among the greenery. Inside, you’ll find a cozy lounge with a fireplace, an open-plan kitchen, a separate bedroom, and a bathroom with a shower – everything you need for comfortable, soulful living.

The Mustard Seed Cottage, small but brimming with personality, is a true tiny home treasure. Designed for the minimalist who values beauty and intention, it features a double-volume open-plan living area, a snug lounge with a fireplace, and a quaint kitchenette. A short stairway leads to the lofted bedroom, where a skylight invites stargazing from bed. Step out onto the covered verandah and into a private courtyard where a gentle water feature and peaceful seating areas make it easy to pause, reflect, and just be.

🎨 The Studio – A Space That Inspires
Tucked between the cottages is a free-standing studio – a beloved and cherished creative space, well-known and appreciated by local artists and visitors alike. With a compact layout, undercover patio, and an indoor fireplace, it's perfect for everything from artistic pursuits to relaxed entertaining. Whether you're sketching, sculpting, or simply sipping your morning coffee surrounded by birdsong, this studio is sure to awaken your imagination.

🌿 A Garden to Wander
The garden is well-established and lovingly tended. Fruit trees offer sweet rewards, the vegetable patch invites homegrown meals, the soft lawn and paths meander past hidden nooks and secret corners perfect for reading, meditating, or simply enjoying the moment. It's a space where nature and soul meet, and where time slows down just enough for you to notice.

With only a small portion of the potential building space currently utilised, there is ample space for innovative design and building extensions on this 1001 m2 erf.

Whether you’re looking to live creatively, invest in rental opportunities, or find your own piece of peaceful paradise, this unique property is ready to welcome you home.
