OWN A PIECE OF LIFETIME HISTORY

A charming, blue plaque, Heritage family farmhouse spanning 165 years of interesting history is on the market.

This free-standing home is nestled in a small, secure complex which has its own private park and childrens play area.

Hy-Many House started off as the original Boschkop farmhouse in the 1860s. John Dale-Lace and Tom Kelly, who are synonymous with Randpark Ridge, have both lived in this gem. With its thick rock walls, the house is the second oldest stone building in Johannesburg. The home has been restored in parts and maintained to try and emulate its former glory days.

The interior of the house has been modernised but in keeping with the former farm home feel where possible and still has the four original wood burning fireplaces that are fully functional.

Historical grandness is visible with the two matching Cape-Dutch gables that were built by Tom Kelly in 1929. The house retains its tin roof and five original Jacaranda trees that are over 100 years old.

This beautiful home includes:

Three well-sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms main-en-suite and a separate guest toilet.

A functional farm feel kitchen with granite counter tops, gas stove, two ovens and space for three under counter appliances.

Three grand reception areas for large family gatherings with two fireplaces to warm up cold winter days.

Double wooden French doors open up onto a vast covered veranda with an indented stairway leading to a well-manicured garden and sparkling pool for summer entertaining. With the breath-taking views of the Jacaranda treetops and Sandton skyline, this home is a dream for entertainers.

A huge bonus to this stunning property is the separate self-contained cottage that also houses one of the original fireplaces. Double automated garage, double carport and ample visitors parking.
