Own a Piece of History – The Kriekbult Blockhouse in Adendorp
Perched atop Kriekbult, overlooking the vast plains of the Eastern Cape, this extraordinary home carries the legacy of the Anglo-Boer War. Originally constructed as a British blockhouse, this structure once served as a military stronghold, protecting British troops as they monitored the surrounding area.
Fire signalling were used to communicate with Magasyn Heuwel in Graaff-Reinet ( Panorama Hotel) between soldiers. Kriekbult and Magasyn Heuwel in Graaff-Reinet is direct in line of sight.
Built for defense, the blockhouse features four original corner towers, each equipped with shooting slots—a testament to its wartime purpose. Some of the towers still boasts its own chimney of a fireplace, offering a rare glimpse into the past. Over time, the towers were connected with solid walls and a roof, transforming the structure into a spacious and unique home while preserving its historic charm.
This one-of-a-kind property is perfect for history enthusiasts, investors, or anyone seeking a questhouse with a story to tell. Its sturdy construction, historical significance, and breathtaking location make it a truly rare find.
