At the front and rear of the house there are two spacious bedrooms with a ridge height of about 5 meters thanks to the attractive roof construction.

GARDEN
Through the monumental gates you get access to the estate. The entrance gate is remotely controlled and equipped with an intercom system. The property offers parking for several cars. The garden includes an orchard, vegetable garden and a large pond. This sleek pond has a fully automatic filter so you don't have to worry about it.
Next to the orchard in the garden is a terrace scaffolding on the lake Drieberg. Here you can enjoy your cup of coffee or a delicious glass of wine. This terrace jetty can also serve as a jetty for your canoe or rowing boat. The natural pond also offers the possibility of a natural swimming pool.
During the construction of this estate a lot of attention was paid to the redevelopment in order to preserve the typical character of the area. This is done by applying landscape elements such as planting pollard willows, constructing ditches, an elongated pool, and by the subsidence of the banks. In winter, you can enjoy skating on this pool. This has made the flora and fauna more attractive and has made the whole area easy to maintain.
Outbuildings
In the yard there is a traditional barn in pot lidded parts, suitable for multiple purposes. It is currently used for storage, parking and as an attractive accommodation due to the presence of an African Braai with an electric rotisserie. This Braai can also be used as a cozy outdoor fireplace. This allows you to enjoy your favorite game and the delicious fire at special moments with family and friends. The covered area offers space for your garden tools and wood storage.
