EXCLUSIVE MANDATE – Fully Operational Holiday Home, Dual Solar & Battery Backup, Pool Proven

Three Sections. Two Solar Systems. One Exceptional Buy.


This is no ordinary holiday home. It's a fully operational, multi-section lodge that arrives with infrastructure most owners spend years building — and it shows in every detail, from the dual Hubble battery solar systems to the stocked linen shelves, the kidney-shaped pool framed by a hardwood deck and thatched lapa, and the stone-walled drinking hole that delivers the best wildlife show in the neighbourhood, free of charge.

The Main House
Double-storey, face brick, and crowned with thatch — this is the anchor of the property. The ground floor accommodates guests with genuine flexibility: a luxurious ensuite suite with walk-in cupboard, a second ensuite bedroom whose bathroom conveniently doubles as guest facilities, and a third ensuite room that works equally well as a studio or home office. A dedicated laundry room keeps operations tidy.

Upstairs, a modern kitchen — dark cabinetry, full appliances, and a generous island with bar seating — flows into a dining area anchored by a substantial raw-wood communal table. The living room earns its keep with a combustion fireplace, air conditioning, flat-screen TV, and French doors that spill onto the upper braai deck where the canopy is all yours. The master suite occupies its own private corner of this level, complete with ensuite and a private deck perfectly positioned for sundowners.

The Cottages
Two self-contained cottages, accessed via an elevated catwalk, complete the rental portfolio. The upper cottage is the jewel: spacious open-plan living with kitchen, dining, and lounge, a private second bedroom, and a full bathroom with corner bath, separate shower, and double basins. Its private deck delivers genuine alfresco atmosphere. The lower cottage keeps things comfortable and contained — open-plan kitchen and lounge, ensuite bedroom, and compact shower bathroom — ideal for a couple or a family pair seeking their own space.

Outdoors
The pool area is a proper resort moment: kidney-shaped pool, polished hardwood deck with loungers, thatched lapa with ceiling fan, and a built-in bar counter with real character. The cottages share a separate boma with braai facilities and fire pit, the bush pressing in on all sides. Between the main house and cottages, the stone-walled drinking hole draws in the neighbourhood — warthog, nyala, and the occasional more impressive visitor have all made appearances.

Infrastructure — and this is where it gets serious
The property operates on two independent solar systems. The main house is backed by three Hubble lithium batteries linked to a Deye inverter; the cottages run on their own dedicated two-battery Hubble system. Solar panels are canopy-mounted on the carport structure. Backup water storage is in place. This property is genuinely load-shedding proof — a decisive advantage for uninterrupted rental income and 5-star guest reviews.

Additional features include a double garage at the main house, undercover parking for cottage guests, a fully shelved linen room with washing machine, and the unmistakable hallmarks of a property that is already delivering returns.

In short: The infrastructure investors dream about. The views guests rave about. A Marloth Park listing worth taking very seriously.
