Western Cape, Knysna, South Africa

There’s so much to love about this stunning property in Belvidere, Knysna, that it’s hard to know where to begin. The first thing that captures your attention as you step onto the property is the fantastic location, offering breathtaking views across the Knysna Lagoon. The sunsets here are simply mesmerizing, evoking the beauty of some of the world’s most scenic destinations.

This unique offering includes two separate erfs: one hosting the main house, and the other featuring a lush garden with a charming garden cottage. Should you prefer a smaller property, the second erf can be sold separately.

The house itself is a delightful blend of rustic charm and modern convenience. Constructed from wood and clad in fiber cement, it mirrors the style of homes on Thesen Island, with the added benefit of reduced maintenance compared to traditional brick and mortar structures.

The kitchen is a true focal point, with beautiful wooden cabinets and a spacious central island, evoking the warmth and homeliness of a farmhouse kitchen. Imagine preparing delicious meals here, surrounded by loved ones. A top-of-the-line six-plate Smeg cooker and a separate scullery complete this inviting space. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the open-plan dining and lounge area, which leads into a cozy conservatory—perfect for those chilly winter days—and extends to a large deck with an outdoor dining area and the most breathtaking views.

Upstairs, a mezzanine floor with its own bathroom offers a versatile space that could serve as a teenager’s retreat, a second lounge, or even an art studio where creativity can flourish. The large main bedroom on this level features an en suite bathroom with a separate toilet and opens onto the deck, offering more of those spectacular views. A spacious walk-in dressing room adds to the luxury of this serene space.

The downstairs level includes a double garage with direct access to the house—ideal for security—and an inverter room. You’ll also find a laundry room, two additional bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a completely separate home office around the side of the house.

At the bottom of the garden on the second erf is a separate studio-style apartment, which could easily be rented out for additional income.

While the downstairs area of the main house could benefit from some updating, this property is a rare gem that would make the perfect family home. Picture spending countless happy hours here, with the ability to walk down to the lagoon’s edge for paddling or canoeing. This tranquil corner of Knysna offers a peaceful, country feel, yet it’s just a short drive from the N2 and town.

Properties like this don’t often come on the market, and this one is just waiting for the perfect family to come and enjoy it.

We would be honored to show you around.
