Timeless Thatched Elegance in the Heart of McGregor - A Country Sanctuary with Income Potential

Discover a truly special country retreat nestled in the tranquil, historic village of McGregor. Immaculately maintained and in mint condition, this charming thatched home offers warmth, character, and exceptional versatility — perfect for family living with the added benefit of a ready-made rental income stream.

Step inside and feel immediately at home in the spacious lounge and dining area, where exposed wooden beams and open thatched ceilings create a beautiful sense of space. A cosy fireplace and air conditioning ensure comfort in every season.

The generous main bedroom opens privately onto the patio and features a dressing room and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom with a large shower. The second bedroom offers built-in cupboards and its own en-suite shower, toilet, and basin. A versatile third bedroom, accessed from outside, includes a loft area ideal for a study or library. It can easily be combined with the second bedroom to create a private flatlet.

The heart of the home is a stunning wood-finished eat-in kitchen designed for gathering and entertaining. It boasts a centre island, granite countertops, and a freestanding gas/electric stove. A separate air-conditioned study provides the perfect work-from-home office.

Outdoor living is just as inviting. A fitted bar flows seamlessly to a large undercover patio with a fireplace and remote-controlled drop-down blinds, creating a year-round entertainment space overlooking the manicured garden and sparkling pool.
