Original Victorian home built in 1904 for the wife of Malan, owner of Allesverloren wine farm, Beautifully designed, spacious and light.

Victorian manor house, although 124 years old, is very original with beautiful wooden ceilings and floors. All doors and windows are original and in excellent condition. Inner windows have been fitted to provide for a customised double glazing system. All modernising has been sensitively executed and each bedroom is ensuite.

The kitchen is well fitted and open plan to one of the living areas which cleverly retains the proportion of the room.

The garden is formally laid out, enhancing the magnificence of the house and is well watered from the borehole. The upper level is 315m2 of open area, both insulated and sound proofed and could be developed into rooms. Natural light emanates through skylights and low windows.
