Ganzvlei Manor, a most desirable estate, is fully furnished and in pristine condition. Comprising 2.87 ha of prime land with river frontage on the Goukamma River, it includes the renovated Manor House, cottage and manager's apartment.

The setting is breath-taking. Pastoral views stretch along the Goukamma Valley and the spectacular tree-enclosed gardens transport one to a magical forest setting, while foot paths lead to a mooring on the banks of the river. The Goukamma Nature Reserve (World Heritage Site) and marine protected Buffalo Bay are in close proximity.

The Manor is a rare example of the South African "country house" and the extensive, attractive renovation retains the architectural style of the original buildings, including yellowwood floors and ceilings. Tasteful, upmarket finishes and furniture blend seamlessly with contemporary living and old-world charm.

The Manor offers luxury accommodation in three large en-suite bedrooms (two with wood burning stoves). A fourth unfurnished en-suite room located in the attic serves as a light-filled meditation room with operable skylights. The flow of the spacious open plan living and dining area, central fireplace and several sitting areas, are a special feature.

Glass doors provide access to the wide terrace which spans the front length of the Manor House and a separate lounge serves as a library located off the wide entrance hall. A guest cloakroom is located off the lounge. The spacious kitchen is equipped with top-end appliances, a 7 burner 3 oven Smeg gas/electric stove, extractor hood and a fridge/freezer. A centre island forms the focal point of the kitchen and a beautiful display pantry completes this charming space. The adjoining scullery houses a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.

The picturesque cottage, set away from the Manor among shady trees, has also been upgraded and provides superior en-suite double room accommodation. A fully equipped kitchenette features a gas stove, extractor, convection oven and fridge/freezer. The spacious bedroom has a wood burning stove and opens out onto a private deck.

The manager's apartment has two en-suite bedrooms, a kitchen and living room. The second bedroom and en-suite accommodate mobility impaired individuals. Adjoining the manager's cottage is a garden store, laundry area, housekeeping accommodation and a double garage.
A section of the property extends over the N2 highway where a staff cottage is located.

The property is well served with abundant water sources that provide high quality water to the Manor, cottage and apartment as well as the garden. Solar power is currently being installed. Both the Manor and cottage have a burglar alarm system and Satellite internet is available.

Properties of this quality and historical value seldom come on the market.
