Exceptional Opportunity: 4-Bedroom Home with Commercial Premises in Tourist Hotspot
Versatile 4-Bedroom Property with Income Potential in Prime Tourist Location
This exceptional property offers a rare combination of lifestyle and investment value, perfectly situated in one of Swellendam’s most popular tourist areas. Currently divided into two functional spaces, it presents multiple opportunities for an investor, entrepreneur, or owner-occupier.
The front section of approximately 60m2 is currently leased to a tenant who operates a successful retail shop from the premises.

The commercial space features ladies' and gents' toilets, a storeroom, and ample client parking, providing an immediate rental income stream while remaining suitable for a variety of customer-facing business ventures.
The main house comprises two spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a large lounge and dining area currently utilised as a workroom. The kitchen is generous in size and boasts a practical layout, having previously served as a restaurant kitchen, making it ideal for catering, a home-based business, or conversion back to residential use. The living areas open onto a heated swimming pool, creating a relaxing entertainment space.
At the rear of the property, accessible from Keerom Street, you'll find a self-contained one-bedroom flatlet with a separate entrance, ideal for rental income, guest accommodation, or extended family living.
This unique property is bursting with potential, whether you're looking to secure a mixed-use investment, benefit from existing rental income, expand into hospitality, or enjoy a spacious home with additional income-generating opportunities. It truly ticks all the boxes for investors and entrepreneurs alike.
