Set within the heart of the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, just 15 minutes from Nottingham Road, this immaculate 27-hectare lifestyle smallholding offers an extraordinary opportunity to embrace the very best of country living. Accessed through two secure electric gates, a tree-lined driveway winds its way through the property, creating a beautiful sense of arrival as it leads towards the main residence. From the moment you enter, the scale, tranquillity and natural beauty of the estate are immediately apparent. Set against a spectacular backdrop of panoramic Drakensberg views and rolling Midland’s countryside, the property combines expansive open landscapes with beautifully established gardens, mature trees and an exceptional sense of space and privacy. The property has two picturesque dams — a private dam on the smallholding and a larger dam shared with neighbouring properties. Both are stocked with trout, creating an idyllic setting for fishing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Walking trails wind through the property, inviting you to explore the natural landscape and enjoy ever-changing views from different vantage points. A growing fruit orchard provides a natural divide between the main residence, known as The Lodge, and the cabin and dam-side entertainment area. With its combination of secure access, pristine grounds, abundant water, magnificent mountain scenery and an enviable location close to Nottingham Road, this is far more than a property, it’s a rare Midlands lifestyle offering, where space, tranquillity and natural beauty come together in one remarkable estate. The Lodge: Immerse yourself in tranquil country living with breathtaking dam views, cozy indoor fireplaces, and expansive sunlit patios designed for year-round relaxation. • Step through the front door into a warm, open-plan living and kitchen area featuring exposed wooden beams, a cozy fireplace, and breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the dam. • The country-style kitchen comes fully equipped with a practical scullery and pantry. • Along the front of the home, two expansive sun-drenched patios provide the ideal spot to unwind and soak up the warmth on crisp days. • The main residence offers 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 well-appointed bathrooms, and a secure 2-car garage. • Set on a fully fenced property, it is wonderfully pet-friendly and currently shares its charming garden with four resident tortoises. The Cabin: The cabin is thoughtfully designed as two completely separate living areas, divided by a spacious three-car garage, making it ideal for extended family living, guest accommodation or dual-living potential. • Rear living area: A private entrance opens into a comfortable open-plan living space featuring a wood-burning fireplace and provision for a kitchenette. • This section offers two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, providing a practical and private living arrangement. • Front living area: A fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. • The cottage features a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, centred around a beautiful stone fireplace. • A covered patio extends from the living area and enjoys lovely views overlooking the dam. • The separation between the two living spaces offers excellent privacy and flexibility, whether used for family, guests, rental accommodation or a work-from-home setup. • A three-car garage conveniently separates and services both living areas.
