The space
The house consists of 4 bedrooms with 4 bathrooms. It’s got a lovely kitchen with gas stove and hob. The living room opens up to a small balcony overlooking the majestic Vaal river and the most beautiful sun sets to the west. Down stairs is a large braai room with indoor braai, dining table, foosball table, TV area with DSTV, Netflix and more. The back garden has a 16m swimming pool. Perfect for training and relaxing. There is also a ‘dad-built’ climbing wall and sand pit.

Guest access
The entire house is available for guests. The garage is not for guests but there is ample safe parking on the property.

Other things to note
The swimming pool is not covered but the entire back yard is closed with wall and side gates. Babies and toddlers cannot access the back yard if these gates and glass doors leading to the back remains closed. There is also a river. Guests with babies and toddlers should remain vigilant.
The climbing wall is 6m high with the pool below. It is equipped with safety rope but it was dad built. My kids play on it daily but guests should know that the wall is entirely on their own risk.
We leave our own personal kayaks and bicycles on the property 90% of the time. Guests are welcome to use these at their own risk. There is safety helmets, life jackets and paddles available for their enjoyment. Guests should please be considerate and use these as if it was their own.
