3 Bedroom House For Sale in Ashburton

Just 10 minutes from Pietermaritzburg, yet a world away from the busyness of everyday life, this very special Ashburton property offers peace, privacy and a wonderful connection with nature. 

Set on approximately 2 hectares of beautiful indigenous bush with river frontage at the bottom of the property, this is a rare opportunity for those looking for space, tranquillity and a more self-sufficient way of living.  

The property offers two separate cottages, making it ideal for extended family living, rental potential, or simply enjoying the extra space and flexibility. 

The first cottage has its own private entrance and offers three bedrooms, a spacious lounge opening onto a patio where you can enjoy the peaceful surroundings, and an open-plan dining area leading into the fitted kitchen. The kitchen offers plenty of cupboard space, a pantry cupboard and a breakfast nook and a gas/electric stove. There is a full bathroom with both bath and shower, as well as a separate toilet. 

Additional features include a double carport, storeroom and Wendy house. 

The second cottage offers three bedrooms, an open-plan lounge and kitchen area, bathroom and a lovely little verandah to sit back and enjoy the natural setting. There are also three garages and approved plans for future extensions, allowing the next owner the opportunity to create something even more special. 

Designed with sustainable living in mind, the property lends itself beautifully to an almost off-grid lifestyle, with excellent water storage from five JoJo tanks, rainwater harvesting, municipal water supply plumbed to the property, a pump connected to an inverter, as well as solar and electric geyser options. 

A newly installed swimming pool adds to the lifestyle appeal, creating a peaceful place to relax and unwind while surrounded by nature. 

The homes are secured with electric fencing around the residential area, while the remainder of the land has been left natural, allowing the beauty of the indigenous surroundings and wildlife to be enjoyed. 

Whether you are looking for a quieter lifestyle, a family retreat, a property with future potential, or simply a place where you can breathe and reconnect with nature - this unique Ashburton gem offers something truly different.
