This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own and restore “The Spookhuis”!
On the market for the first time in over 50 years, this is your chance to purchase Rugby’s original farmhouse which dates back to 1904.
Set on an expansive corner plot, the house is surrounded on three sides by a wide wraparound stoep which offers spectacular views of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head.

Set on a generous 671sqm erf, this single-storey home offers an exciting opportunity for those with vision to unlock its full potential.

With 224sqm under roof, the home already provides a solid footprint to work with, combining charming original features with the flexibility to modernise and personalise over time. Rich in character, the property showcases beautiful pressed steel ceilings, original sprung Oregon Pine hardwood flooring and classic wooden doors that speak to its Victorian heritage.

The interiors carry a bold and slightly eclectic personality, with vibrant colours throughout adding a sense of energy and individuality. For the right buyer, this presents the perfect canvas to reimagine and create something truly special.

The kitchen is a standout and already offers a strong foundation within the home, while the living spaces are well-proportioned and flow out onto a patio area that enjoys views of Table Mountain, a rare and valuable feature.

All four bedrooms are generously sized and serviced by a central bathroom, with the layout lending itself well to future enhancements or reconfiguration if desired.

One of the key highlights is the large loft storeroom, which presents an exceptional opportunity to be converted into additional living space, whether as an extra bedroom, studio, or work-from-home setup.

Further adding to the versatility is a separate workshop or office space, ideal for those needing a dedicated work area or creative space, with an adjacent annex room offering access to the backyard, creating additional flexibility for extended living or workspace options.

Additional features include two working fireplaces as well as an alarm system, enhancing both comfort and security within the home.

The property offers ample off-street parking for up to six vehicles, a significant advantage for both homeowners and those considering future extensions or dual-living potential.

While the home would benefit from updates, it offers the kind of scale, character and underlying structure that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. With the right vision, this is a property that can be transformed into something truly remarkable.

A rare opportunity to restore, enhance and add significant value in a well-positioned pocket.
