## Description

What if you could own a piece of Hopefield that feels like you've stepped into another world?

There are properties that are beautiful, and then there are properties that have a character of their own. This remarkable historic home, dating back to 1852, is one of Hopefield’s oldest houses and truly something different. Surrounded by mature trees, towering palms and beautifully established gardens, the moment you step outside, you could almost forget you are in Hopefield. The garden has a relaxed, holiday-like atmosphere that is unlike anything else in town.

Full of charm, history and personality, this magnificent home has been thoughtfully restored over the years, combining its original character with carefully selected touches that make it truly special. From the teak windows and delicate hand-blown glass panes to the completely restored wooden floors and Moroccan tiles in two of the bathrooms, every detail reflects the care, time and passion that have gone into preserving this remarkable property.

Currently operated as a guest house, the property has also featured in magazines and has been used as a wedding venue and for commercial photo and video shoots. With its distinctive character and beautiful setting, it offers an exciting opportunity for someone looking to continue the existing hospitality business, create a unique event venue, or simply make this exceptional property their own.

The main house offers five bedrooms and six bathrooms, with each room contributing to the home's individual charm and personality. The bathrooms feature a variety of finishes, including Moroccan tiles in two of them, adding warmth and character to the overall design. Great care has been taken with the details throughout the home, from the restored original features to the landscaping and selection of trees in the garden.

A further three bedrooms and three bathrooms are located in the separate barn, providing additional accommodation and privacy for guests or extended family. Together, the main house and barn offer generous accommodation with plenty of flexibility for guest house operations or a larger family setup.

The home retains many of its beautiful historic features, including high ceilings and generous living spaces, while two kitchens provide excellent versatility. The combination of original details and carefully considered updates gives the property a welcoming feel while preserving the character of its early history.

Outside is where this property truly comes alive. The enormous swimming pool is surrounded by generous lounging areas, with tanning beds and large foldable umbrellas creating the perfect setting for long summer days. Next to the pool is a separate pool house, adding to the relaxed, resort-like feel of the property.

The established garden is a real highlight, with mature trees, towering palms and an orchard of fruit trees creating a beautiful green oasis. The garden is irrigated throughout and benefits from good borehole water, helping to maintain the lush surroundings. A well adds further character to this special outdoor space.

One of the property's standout features is the magical stoep stretching the length of the house, overlooking the beautiful garden. It is the perfect place for long lunches, evening dinners, entertaining guests or simply sitting back and enjoying the surroundings. With its leafy views and relaxed atmosphere, this outdoor space adds to the unique charm of the home.

There are also staff quarters and ample on-site parking for guests, making the property particularly well suited to its current guest house use.

This is a property for someone who sees more than walls and rooms. It is for someone who appreciates history, original craftsmanship, beautiful gardens, entertaining and the charm that comes with a home that has been carefully restored and developed over many years.

Whether you continue its story as a guest house, create a boutique hospitality destination, host intimate weddings and events, or make it your own extraordinary family home, the possibilities are as distinctive as the property itself.

A property with this much character, history and personality is rarely found in Hopefield — and there truly is nothing quite like it.
