In the heart of this picturesque village is this newly built 100sqm home on a level stand in one of South Africa’s most picturesque destinations; Rhodes. Here you are presented with snowy winters, fly-fishing waters, and wide-open mountain landscapes.
Once inside the house, you are met with an open-plan design that has a comfortable feel-good flow. The kitchen – complete with walk-in pantry – leads through to the cosy living area with a freestanding wood-burning fireplace. Large doors open onto a covered veranda where you can bask in the warmth of the sun while sipping on your coffee. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms provide comfort for family or guests, while laminate flooring makes for easy upkeep. The home has also been thoughtfully designed to be wheelchair-friendly throughout.
Practical extras include a large double carport, a workshop, and a greenhouse – with plenty of space to expand or add your own touches.
Visitors flock to Rhodes for these two iconic events:
- the Rhodes Trail Run, a 52km mid-winter challenge starting and ending in the village.
- the Rhodes Mountain Bike Challenge, billed as “The Most Extraordinary Mountain Biking Race in Africa”. It is a demanding 480km non-stop self-navigating race from Pietermaritzburg to Rhodes.
Add to that the prestigious annual Wild Trout Festival, less than an hours’ drive away. This draws a number of anglers to fish for three days in 180km of pristine running waters.
Add to that the eight spectacular mountain passes surrounding Rhodes, and it’s easy to see why this village is beloved by hikers, cyclists, skiers, and nature enthusiasts alike.
Just 14km from Tiffindell Ski Resort and 60km from Barkly East, this property is perfectly positioned as either a peaceful permanent home, a holiday getaway, or an investment in a growing destination. With a blend of comfort, beauty, and adventure on your doorstep, this little gem in Rhodes is a truly extraordinary find.
