House for sale
Ideal for family living or investors, just 1.7 km from the University of the Free State and shops — expansive home with convertible outbuildings for extra accommodation.
This remarkable well maintained property offers a rare opportunity for both investors and large families seeking space and flexibility. With minimal upgrades, it can be transformed into a highly profitable student residence or boutique B&B — while still serving as a comfortable and spacious family home.
The layout includes 4 very large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, two of which are en-suite. Expansive living and dining areas create a warm and inviting environment for family living, yet also provide the ideal structure for conversion into a high-yield student house accommodating up to 15 students.
The outbuildings and garages further enhance the property’s value, offering additional space that can be converted into extra accommodation, study areas, or income-generating units — unlocking even greater return on investment.
Ideally located just 1.7 km from University of the Free State (UFS) and close to Checkers, the property benefits from strong rental demand and everyday convenience.
An added bonus is the borehole, providing a reliable alternative water source — a practical and cost-saving feature for both family living and rental use.
Whether you envision a thriving student residence, boutique guest accommodation, or a spacious home for a growing family, this property offers flexibility, location, and long-term value in one compelling package.
