This versatile property presents a rare "live-and-work" opportunity in the heart of Steytlerville, ideal for an investor with a strategic vision for Karoo tourism and commerce.
At the center of the estate is a substantial traditional Karoo residence, currently configured as a seven-bedroom backpackers' lodge and a self-contained one-bedroom flat. While currently optimized for hospitality, the structure retains the architectural integrity to be effortlessly restored into a grand family home, complete with its characteristic wrap-around veranda.
The property’s commercial potential is anchored by a large main retail space—presently operating as a successful coffee shop, bookstore, and second-hand exchange—which benefits from high visibility and consistent foot traffic on the town’s main thoroughfare. The infrastructure is further supported by:
Diverse Outbuildings: Multiple storerooms, including an active hardware outlet and a partially renovated dwelling suitable for a workshop, additional retail space, or a guest cottage.
Expansion Capacity: A rear workshop/garage situated on an expansive erf provides ample footprint for the construction of a second dwelling or a specialized caravan and camping park.
Strategic Location: Its prominent main-street positioning ensures maximum exposure to the growing Karoo tourism market.
This offering is available as a property-only sale, but the optional R350,000 premium is included in selling price to acquire the existing business contents and inventory, allowing for a seamless operational takeover. Whether utilized as a multi-stream income hub, a boutique hospitality venture, or an expansive lifestyle estate, this property represents a significant investment in one of the region's most charming locales.
