Tanya Jovanovski, Western Cape franchisee for Rawson Auctions says this house conforms to the classic Cape cottage style in every way – with gables, white plastered walls and wooden shutters – it is, in fact, a totally modern house, built only a few years ago to very high standards and with state-of-the-art materials.
It is not subject to the damp and decay that have plagued some of the mud brick homes in this attractive historic village.
The house is situated at the northern end of the village, some 22km from Robertson.
It has two ground floor en suite bedrooms, as well as two attic bedrooms.
The home is within 15 minutes' driving distance of Robertson and within walking distance of the start of the Boesmanskloof trail, which links McGregor to Greyton.
It is also close to the Breede River and within 45 minutes’ drive of the Brandvlei Dam, both of which make McGregor well suited to water sports enthusiasts.
