40 Acres Guest Farm

40 Acres Guest Farm, located in Magaliesberg, offers a self-catering (full service, optional), simple luxurious villa designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Spanning 16 hectares of serene tranquillity, all to yourself, this villa was designed by REIS Architects. The main bedroom is a true sanctuary, featuring a king bed, double basins, an indoor shower, an outdoor shower, a luxurious bathtub, and an inviting fireplace. The guest bedrooms, though smaller, remain spacious and two are equipped with comfortable queen beds. The fourth bedroom features a bunk bed, the top bunk bed has a double mattress, the middle bunk bed has a queen mattress and below the bunk bed, the roll-out bed has a double mattress. Three of the bedrooms open directly onto the garden, while the fourth offers a charming bay window with views of the garden, all overlooking the peaceful stream. The light-filled and spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area features slide-away doors on both sides, seamlessly connecting the courtyard and terrace. The dining table comfortably seats 10, with an additional 10-seater table available on the terrace for outdoor meals. The well-equipped self-catering kitchen includes a gas oven with a five-burner hob, two refrigerators, a dishwasher, a washing machine, and an abundance of cookware, dishware, and utensils to cater to all your needs. The 12-meter, unheated natural saltwater pool is ideal for swimming laps or simply relaxing. It features an underwater bench that runs the entire length of one side, offering a unique spot to unwind while enjoying the tranquil surroundings. A stream flows along the southern and eastern edges of the property, featuring a swimming pond carved from slate, a small waterfall, two picnic platforms, and a series of concrete benches placed every few hundred meters for relaxation. In the mornings and late afternoons, the neighbours' cows cross the property, creating a charming daily routine. Just up the hill from the house, you'll find a large concrete yoga circle and a peaceful meditation garden. For outdoor recreation, there’s also a basketball court with a hoop down by the stream. The home is fully off-grid, powered by solar panels and batteries, ensuring ample energy as long as you use only what you need. Double-glazed windows help keep the house warm and cosy during winter, while in the summer, you can enjoy a cool breeze by either using the ceiling fans or simply sliding open the doors to let the fresh air flow through. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and free private parking is offered on-site.
