A charming traditional Karoo farmhouse-style home with Cape Dutch architectural elements, built in 1905 from stone, featuring spacious verandas and timeless character. The thick stone walls provide excellent insulation against both heat and cold.

Situated on a large 2141 m² erf with self-sustaining water from a borehole delivering approximately 3000 litres per hour. The water flows into a beautiful Karoo dam and is more than sufficient for the established garden, which includes a variety of fruit trees such as quince, apricot, apple, cherry, fig, prickly pear, plum, and even a vineyard more than 100 years old. The borehole is equipped with an electric pump that also supplies water to the household tank. Municipal water is available if needed.

There are 2 storage rooms, a large laundry room, and a single enclosed garage.
House size: 152 m²
Storage rooms plus garage: 44 m²

The home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
The main bedroom includes a built-in shower and toilet.
Two of the bedrooms have built-in cupboards. The bathroom is fitted with a bath. Large portions of the home have wall-to-wall carpeting for the cold Karoo winters.
The dining room, with an indoor braai, outside door, and windows facing north and northwest, captures the winter sun perfectly during Sutherland’s cold months. There is a small lounge for cosy gatherings and a large Karoo-style living room with generous space facing the front of the house. The kitchen has built-in cupboards and tiled floors. A study with east-facing windows offers peace and privacy.

The current owners, who have lived happily in Sutherland for 22 years, are selling with heavy hearts but recognise that it is time to leave this peaceful environment. In their later years, they created an additional income by opening their home to guests. It is not a registered business, but Sutherland allowed them to welcome visitors with homemade Karoo food and to share more about SALT and the tourism surrounding it.

Accommodation at Primrose Cottage consists of 2 tastefully furnished rooms designed for guest comfort. The units are equipped with either a double bed or two single beds, with an en-suite or private bathroom with a shower. Amenities include free Wi-Fi. A Karoo breakfast is served in the dining room, and guests are welcomed with complimentary drinks. There is also an excellent music collection and an extensive library for those who wish to relax.
Secure parking is available on the large erf, with 3 covered parking bays and plenty of additional space for more vehicles.
