House Randburg

A rare investment: heritage charm, guaranteed income, and total energy independence ΓÇö all in one address.

Set on a full acre of manicured gardens in the heart of Ferndale, Randburg, this beautifully preserved 4-star graded guest house offers a buyer something increasingly hard to find: a fully operational hospitality business with an experienced staff complement already in place, four tenanted cottages generating steady month-to-month rental income, and a property that simply does not notice load shedding or water restrictions.

Wrapped in wide verandas and shaded by mature trees, the main house is furnished throughout with rare Cape Dutch and Victorian antiques, giving every room a sense of history rarely found in guest accommodation today. A glass garden conservatory, sparkling pool, and multiple secluded garden nooks make this as much a private retreat as it is a business ΓÇö and the landscaped grounds have already proven themselves as a boutique wedding and function venue for up to 60 guests.

**The numbers that matter to an investor:**

- **4 permanent staff** already trained and in place ΓÇö walk in and keep operating from day one
- **4 fully let cottages**, all on flexible month-to-month leases, delivering immediate rental income:
- Cottage 1 ΓÇö tenant in occupation 3 months
- Cottage 2 ΓÇö tenant since 1 September 2023
- Cottage 3 ΓÇö tenant since 22 April 2022
- Cottage 4 ΓÇö tenant since 22 August 2024
- **Officially 4-star graded**, with a reputation built on antique-filled interiors and warm, personal hospitality

**Energy and water security most properties can only dream of:**

- Exceptionally strong **borehole** supplying reliable, independent water
- **5,000L water storage tank** for uninterrupted backup supply
- **8kW Sunsynk solar inverter** paired with **3 x 5kWh Greenrich batteries** and **10 solar panels**
- **9kVA generator** as a further layer of backup power

This is a property where guests, tenants, and staff never feel the effects of the grid ΓÇö a genuine selling point in today’s market and a major driver of guest satisfaction and repeat bookings.

**Sold largely as a going concern:** the guest house is offered complete with its full furniture and equipment inventory (full inventory list available on request), preserving the antique-filled character that defines the property. A small number of irreplaceable heirloom pieces are excluded from the sale: the large teak antique table, the Cape inlay table in Room 7, the Victorian half-moon table in the lounge, the glass display cabinet in the dining room, and the garden statue of a lady holding the moon.

Whether you’re looking to step into a ready-made hospitality business, secure a landmark Randburg property with dependable rental income, or invest in one of Ferndale’s most characterful addresses, this is an opportunity that combines lifestyle, income, and independence in equal measure.
