Description

A Unique opportunity to Create a Lifestyle Investment at the Breede River!

Step into a piece of history. Positioned near the original Malagas Hotel, Wool Shed, and Trading Post, this property traces back to the 1860s trade route driven by Joseph Barry between Swellendam and the coast.
Set on 1.2 hectares of prime riverfront land flowing down to the Breede River, the home enjoys views of the iconic Malgas pont—the last hand-drawn (later modernised) ferry in South Africa.
The house offers solid bones with thick walls and generously sized rooms, but requires a full upgrade to kitchen and bathroom areas.

The cottage comprises 2/3 bedrooms with a bathroom, farm style kitchen and separate lounge area.
The loft serves as storage area.
A wooden store/garage is situated at a distance behind the cottage allowing for unobstructed expansion of the structure.

A rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a character-filled property in an exceptional riverside location.

The two properties ERF 156 measuring 6714 square meters and ERF 158 measuring 6160 square meters giving a total of 1.2 hectares are neatly maintained, ready for development,. The cottage on Erf 158 extends over to the adjacent ERF 156.

Erf 156 offers prime river frontage where you can build your dream house.
A jetty construction is permissible.
The public slipway at the adjacent Pont docking area is used for launching and retrieval of boats.

Both properties have individual titles and are sold as a single package.

An opportunity not to be missed in a sought after area where properties are becoming scarce.
