A Rare Artistic Space, Offering Flexibility, Serenity & Character

This is a truly special smallholding on a peaceful corner of Kya Sands. It sits on just under three hectares and has been home to a creative, artistic community for almost twenty years. The property has been used as an artist’s and writers’ retreat, and you can feel that energy as you walk through it. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb catering to artist and tourists. Sculptures, carvings, and handmade elements are scattered throughout the gardens, created by known artists who lived or worked on the land over the years. It is beautifully maintained, cared for and full of character and ahaa moments as you wonder at the creative touches.The main house is a warm, traditionally well built home with three double bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, a kitchen, a dining room and a lounge. A beautiful pool sits in the garden and the entire area feels lived in and loved. The home works perfectly as a family residence, a guest house or the central hub of a retreat.There are several additional dwellings on the property, all currently operating as Airbnb units. One is a converted warehouse that now offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous open plan kitchen and living area with its own private outdoor garden. The interior is unforgettable with walls created from vintage books, remains of the day the Therolds bookshop once operated onsite. If someone prefers, this building can be returned to a warehouse, creative studio or workshop space.Another cottage is an open plan studio with its own bathroom, kitchen and a lovely covered stoep that looks out into the garden. This is the perfect space for rest, reflection or quiet work. There is also a separate one bedroom cottage with a kitchen and living area. Staff accommodation and carport parking are provided on the property.The land itself is designed for gatherings and community activities. There are open areas for drumming circles, creative workshops, small festivals, flea markets or wellness events. It is also well positioned to offer corporate and team building experiences to the surrounding rural and industrial area. The mixture of open lawns, shaded garden spaces and flexible workshop areas makes this property incredibly versatile.Sustainable living is strongly supported here with borehole water, water storage tanks, solar components and gas geysers already in place. There are vegetable growing areas and free roaming chickens, giving the property a peaceful and natural atmosphere. The entire holding is fully walled and offers two entrances. The owners have lived here for roughly twenty years and have had a long history of peace and safety. The layout and community presence naturally support a secure lifestyle. This is much more than a smallholding. It is a creative sanctuary, a lifestyle property, a multi income opportunity and a place with genuine heart and history.
