7 Bedroom House For Sale in Swellendam

De Companjie Guesthouse - Where Time Stands Still:

Exclusive Joint Mandate

There’s something magical about places that carry the whispers of time.
Nestled beneath the shade of centuries-old oak trees, this 1832 national heritage guesthouse tells a story of elegance, love, and timeless South African charm.

Every detail feels intentional — the creak of the original yellowwood floors, the glow of antique Oregon beams, and the sense of calm that lingers in every room. Guests arrive as travelers but leave as storytellers, drawn in by the soul and beauty of Swellendam, the third-oldest town in the country.

This fully furnished and operational property holds consent use for both a Guest House and a Restaurant, offering the perfect turnkey opportunity for hospitality entrepreneurs or investors seeking a business with heritage, heart, and history.

Designed with comfort and functionality in mind, the layout thoughtfully separates private and guest areas. The main dwelling features two en-suite bedrooms on the upper level for owners or managers, while a guest suite on the lower level ensures effortless hosting. Four additional suites are annexed to the main house, three of which offer private off-street entrances, each opening onto an enclosed garden and lapa with a built-in braai — ideal for outdoor entertaining.

The property also features a fully appointed kitchen, thoughtfully designed for both daily living and guest service, complete with all essential appliances, cookware, and utensils. A separate scullery adds convenience and functionality, while a versatile outbuilding houses a dedicated laundry area, making operations seamless and effortless.

Guests can enjoy elegant communal spaces including a dedicated breakfast room, formal dining area, study, and guest restroom, all designed to complement the building’s original character while offering modern convenience.

With seven en-suite guest rooms, each uniquely styled with luxurious finishes and king-size beds, De Companjie blends nostalgia with contemporary comfort. Landscaped gardens and charming outdoor seating create a tranquil haven where history and hospitality meet.

This is more than a guesthouse.
It’s a living legacy — ready for its next chapter and its next custodian.
