3 Bedroom House in Barrydale

A Frontage on the World's Longest Wine Route Route 62, Barrydale A Frontage on the World''s Longest Wine Route Route 62, BarrydaleVery few properties in the Klein Karoo can claim what 9 Tennant Street offers as a simple matter of fact: direct frontage onto Route 62, South Africa''s iconic scenic route and the world''s longest wine route. This is not a street that happens to be near Route 62. This is a property that sits on it with the passing world on one side and an expansive 3,000 m2 of Klein Karoo opportunity on the other.Set in the heart of Barrydale, one of South Africa''s most celebrated small towns and recently crowned the country''s Small Town of the Year, this substantial three-bedroom home on a generous 3,000 m2 stand represents a compelling combination of residential character, mixed-use commercial potential, and long-term land value that is genuinely rare at this price point on the Western Cape''s most famous road.The home itself is a traditional white-plastered Karoo residence with real bones and undeniable character. Original Oregon pine flooring runs through the living areas, beamed ceilings add warmth and architectural interest, and a south-facing lounge with fireplace opens onto a veranda the kind of space that earns its place in a Barrydale winter. A separate dining room, kitchen with wooden countertop, and glass-panelled doors throughout ensure the home is practical and liveable while offering an excellent foundation for modernisation and renovation. The mature garden and established plantings give the stand an immediate sense of place.The north-facing enclosed veranda fronting directly onto Route 62 deserves particular attention. With the consistent passing traffic of one of South Africa''s most travelled scenic routes passing its door, this space presents a ready-made opportunity for a studio, gallery, boutique retail space, consulting room or home-based business all without compromising the residential character of the home. It is a commercial dimension that most residential properties in Barrydale simply cannot offer.Towards the rear, the erf rises gently to reveal expansive views across the village and the surrounding mountains. A covered back stoep with built-in braai creates a natural entertainment area overlooking the garden, while the sheer scale of the 3,000 m2 stand unusually large for a village property opens doors for further development, additional dwellings, a workshop, or extended landscaped gardens, subject to the necessary municipal approvals.Property features:- 3 bedrooms- 1 bathroom- Lounge with fireplace- Separate dining room- Kitchen with wooden countertop- Oregon pine flooring throughout living areas- Beamed ceilings- North-facing enclosed veranda Route 62 frontage, commercial potential- Covered back stoep with built-in braai- Staff quarters- 1 garage- Parking for 6 vehicles on site and off street- Two outbuildings storage, workspace or conversion potential- Existing lei water dam requires repair- Alarm system- Water tanks- Fibre-ready- Pet friendly- Mature garden with established plantings- Erf: 3,000 m2- Elevated rear views across Barrydale village and mountainsThe home is in need of updating and is priced accordingly making this an exceptional entry point for a buyer who recognises the combination of Route 62 exposure, land scale and mixed-use flexibility that this address uniquely provides. Properties of this size, positioning and potential do not often come to market in Barrydale.Route 62 frontage, 3,000 m2 of Klein Karoo land, and a home with the character to match this is the kind of property that only comes up once.
