LOCK UP AND GO PERIOD HOUSE, LADISMITH

This stunning historic house has proudly stood on Albert Street in Ladismith, overlooking Towerkop, for over a century. It embodies the charm of a bygone era. There’s nothing like a home that invites you to relax in an easy chair on the stoep, and this is such a home! What makes it even more exceptional is its potential as a lock-up-and-go property.

The house is filled with period features, including Oregon pine floors, high wooden ceilings, and sash windows. An added bonus is the converted loft, making this property truly unique. The yellow and Oregon pine wooden staircase in the small entrance hall connects the ground floor to the loft.

The layout of the house is characteristic of its era, with three bedrooms downstairs, a living room, a kitchen, and an additional room that can serve as an office or studio. This room could also be converted into an en-suite or dressing room for the main bedroom.

The loft has been transformed into two bedrooms, a bathroom, and an open-plan living area. A second large space can be used as an office and second lounge area. The loft door on the eastern side can be enlarged, allowing for the addition of a deck that connects the indoor space to the outdoors.

The property features palisade fencing at the front, along with an electric gate that provides easy access to the garage. A 7-inch color video doorphone offers peace of mind when greeting visitors at the front gate. This system includes a gate release and monitoring, as well as a loudspeaker and two-way intercom. It provides a clear view both day and night.

The garden is neat and tidy, featuring a small water feature at the entrance. The soothing sound of the water makes enjoying a cup of coffee on the stoep even more pleasurable! The garden is low-maintenance and water-wise, with a 5,000-liter water tank sufficient to keep it flourishing during dry spells.

This is a true gem, one of only a few like it!
