TOLKIENIAN HIDEAWAY IN MAGICAL HOGSBACK
CHARMING "ORIGINAL" THATCHED COTTAGE ON TOR DOONE.
Opportunity to acquire an authentic Hogsback residence in a beautiful established garden on Tor Doone Lane.
Cosy lounge with wood-burning fireplace, kitchen still sporting its original coal stove, 2 double bedrooms and a full family bathroom, all under thatch.
Separate "bachelor flat" fully equipped for 2 guests, with kitchen and bathroom. This is adjacent to a super-sized double garage with workbench and 2 store rooms - offering the potential for a 2nd full-size dwelling opening to the north facing lawns.
This property has been in the same family for many years and has for some time been offered as guest accommodation, so everything is in good condition and working order. (https://high-goonvrea.business.site/).
Situated above the snow belt, you can truly experience the full range of seasons, from spring flowering to winter snow.
Streams, waterfalls and hiking trails abound in this little-known village in the Amatola mountains, where you can truly go "back to nature" with water from the pure mountain stream and plenty of room to grow your own crops. The property stretches from Tor Doone Lane up to the forestry firebreak.
Eskom power and satellite internet installed if you can't resist keeping a connection to the outside world!
