Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history of Hopefield at the enchanting Old Cape Dutch House, a venerable gem constructed in 1852, proudly holding the title of the town's oldest residence. Once the cherished homestead of the esteemed Dr. Karl Bremmer.
Transformed into a luxurious Bed and Breakfast, the main house boasts an array of delights. 5 gorgeous bedrooms, each accompanied by its own en-suite bathroom, beckon with a blend of antique charm and modern comfort. Two kitchens, adorned with Aga stove (one drawing from a private borehole, the other from the municipal supply) to invite culinary exploration. The grandeur extends to two lounges, a spacious one with an adjoining dining room, and another, a smaller space easily convertible into a sixth bedroom. Warmth emanates from two wood-burning and 1 gas fireplaces, while ceiling fans gently stir the air throughout. Adjacent to the main house, a barn exudes a rustic charm with three bedrooms, each boasting its own en-suite retreat.
Outside, a covered patio overlooks a garden resplendent with trees, ensconced by a new fence for added privacy. A terrace, graced by a bubbling fountain. The property is a verdant oasis where farm animals find a welcoming haven on this smallholding. The pièce de résistance is a 12m x 5m salt-chlorinated pool, accompanied by a pool house measuring 63m². The estate is not just a spectacle of grandeur but a harmonious blend of heritage and contemporary living. A double garage and parking for approximately 15 vehicles cater to the practicalities of modern life.
