- Exclusive Mandate - Step into a unique blend of heritage and modern comfort with the beautifully restored Old Baden School on Kruis Farm, now available for purchase. Set on a generous 3,315m² property just 10 minutes from Montagu, this one-of-a-kind home offers character, charm, and a truly exceptional lifestyle.
Lovingly transformed into a warm and inviting residence, the original school building retains its rich history while embracing contemporary living. The former classrooms have been reimagined into a spacious open-plan lounge, dining area, and country-style kitchen, while the second classroom now serves as an expansive bedroom with a stylish en-suite bathroom. Original sash windows, polished wooden floors, soaring ceilings, and the preserved school sign are beautiful reminders
of the building's fascinating past.
The enclosed veranda creates an inviting entertainment space to enjoy throughout the year, while a private courtyard leads to an outdoor laundry and additional ablution facilities.
A separate, fully self-contained cottage offers excellent guest accommodation or income-generating rental potential. Complete with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, and its own enclosed garden, it provides privacy and flexibility.
The home is fitted with four air conditioners, elegant light fittings, and an alarm system, ensuring comfort and peace of mind. Water is supplied by a registered borehole, while a state-of-the-art desalination plant provides purified drinking water. Drip irrigation has also been installed, making it easy to cultivate a productive vegetable garden and fruit trees.
This remarkable property offers the rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored historic landmark while enjoying all the comforts of modern country living in a peaceful rural setting.
