Private Bushveld Escape on the Vaal River

Riverside bushveld retreat an hour from Johannesburg with 80m Vaal frontage, wooden sundeck and sunken pool — lodge-style living across three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a lock-up garage.

Wake up to river views, unwind under star-filled skies, and experience the serenity of bushveld living just an hour from Johannesburg.

Set on 1.4 hectares of scenic land with an impressive 80 metres of Vaal River frontage, this unique smallholding offers the perfect combination of privacy, space, and relaxed riverside living. Thoughtfully positioned to take advantage of its natural elevation and gentle slope, the property enjoys sweeping views across the river and surrounding countryside.

The main residence, approximately 300 m2 in size, sits proudly on a rocky outcrop overlooking the water. Designed with a striking double-volume layout and classic thatch roof, the home blends rustic charm with spacious, comfortable living. A large wooden sundeck stretches across the front of the house, featuring a sunken swimming pool, creating the perfect place to relax and entertain while soaking in the peaceful river setting.

Down by the water, a spacious riverside lapa offers the ultimate entertainment area. Complete with a built-in braai, bathroom facilities, and a traditional boma with seating and a firepit, it’s ideal for hosting family and friends. A dedicated fishing area with direct river access makes it easy to enjoy kayaking, fishing, and other water activities.

Inside, the home’s earthy tones and expansive layout create a warm, lodge-style atmosphere that feels like a remote bushveld retreat, yet remains conveniently close to the city.

The home is cleverly designed to function as two homes under one roof, making it ideal for extended families, guests, or flexible living:

One wing offers a bedroom, bathroom, and spacious lounge area.

The opposite wing features two bedrooms, a bathroom, and an open-plan living space with room for a lounge, dining area, and small kitchen.

The central heart of the home is a large open-plan area with the main lounge, dining space, and fully fitted kitchen.

A 60 m2 loft area provides additional sleeping space, perfect for children or visiting guests.
