Big Enough for the Family. Smart Enough for the Budget. Wild Enough for the Bush.

If you have been looking for the one that fits the whole family, now is the time to come and see it.

Wake to birdsong, end the day around the braai, and keep a bed ready for everyone you love. After more than two decades in the Marloth Park bush, this home has only grown more generous with every passing season. Spacious, self-sufficient and lovingly kept by the owners who retired here, it is now offered at R2,350,000, which makes this much home, in this setting, genuinely hard to find.

Marloth Park is a wildlife estate bordering the Kruger National Park, where zebra, kudu and giraffe wander past your stoep and birdsong starts the day. This double-storey brick home with its signature thatched roof sits quietly among the trees on a well-established stand, with room for your own peace and quiet, and plenty for family and friends who come to stay.

The Heart of the Home
A spacious open-plan living room and kitchen keep the conversation going, whether you are making coffee or settled in with a book. A wooden staircase leads to the upper level, and exposed brick and natural timber finishes give the interior genuine warmth without trying too hard. The kitchen connects to a dedicated scullery, and a water filtration system ensures every glass from the tap is clean and fresh.

Sleeping Comfortably — All of Them
The ground floor offers one bedroom, ideal as a guest room or for anyone who prefers to avoid stairs. Upstairs, three further bedrooms and extra space for a study or home office give ample room for extended family and long-stay visitors. Ablutions are sensibly separate: a shower, a loo, and a bath with basin each have their own space, with a full bathroom serving the upper level. A large, well-fitted laundry room at the end of the ground-floor passage completes the practical side of daily living.

The Entertainment Pavilion — Because Braai is a Lifestyle
If the house is the heart, the entertainment area is the soul. A generous, fully enclosed space under thatch houses a built-in braai (the South African barbecue, and a way of life), a fully fitted bar, and a dining area made for long, unhurried meals. A ceiling fan keeps things comfortable through the Lowveld summer. Adjacent, in its own sheltered courtyard, is the round, brick-raised pool, surrounded by palms and lush planting.

Built for the Bush, Ready for Anything
A solar system provides reliable power backup, and a 1000L JoJo water storage tank with a pressure pump ensures water security when the municipal supply falters. Together they make this a home that copes well, whether you are here year-round or only part of the year. Three garages offer exceptional vehicle storage, one built extra-high for a caravan, motorhome or Open Safari Vehicle, and a large, secured carport covers guests' vehicles.

Getting Here
Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport is approximately 90 km (about 1 hour 30 minutes) away, and rental vehicles are readily available, so arriving from overseas is simple.

The Invitation
Built in 2002 with quality and longevity in mind, this home carries its years well and wears the patina of a life beautifully lived in the bush. Four bedrooms, a pool, thatch, and a pavilion made for gathering, all at R2,350,000.
