A rare find:
453 Van Niekerk is a beautifully restored 120-year-old sandstone home set in a lush, storybook garden. Once the original “Koster se Huis”, this character-filled gem features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a cozy studio cottage.
Original sash windows, wooden floors, an AGA stove, and a Queen Anne fireplace add timeless charm, while a borehole and solar geyser offer modern sustainability. The garden is a dream—rolling lawns, ancient trees, a veggie patch with tunnel and hothouse, fruit trees, and even a chicken coop.
Set on nearly 3000m2 with sheds, carports, and stunning views across from Rosendal’s iconic church—this is your idyllic country escape or opportunity for a self-sustainable lifestyle. Freshly painted and full of potential, it’s waiting for your creative touch.
