DECEASED ESTATE – PRIME RENOVATION OPPORTUNITY IN OLD PLACE, KNYSNA

A rare opportunity presents itself in the ever-popular and established suburb of Old Place, Knysna. This Deceased Estate property is being offered to the market for the first time in many years — a genuine chance for renovators, investors, and visionaries to unlock exceptional value in a sought-after location.

Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home enjoys a peaceful position while still offering convenient access to the amenities and activity of Knysna’s nearby commercial hub. The stand is an impressive 960m², dotted with beautiful established trees, including mature fruit trees such as avocado and nectarine.

The residence itself is a large, older wooden home that has seen very little maintenance in recent years and now requires significant renovation — ideal for buyers seeking a project with strong upside potential. The multi-level layout provides versatility and ample space for reimagining.

Property Features

Ground Level:

• Living area
• Basic kitchen space
• 1 bedroom
• 1 bathroom
• Garage converted into an additional room currently used for storage

First Level (street-level from rear):

• Main living floor
• Kitchen with open-plan lounge and dining area
• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms (one compact)
• Deck area (currently unsafe due to wood deterioration)

Third Level – Loft Conversion:

• Lounge
• Kitchenette
• 2 bedrooms
• Bathroom

The external timber siding, decking, and general condition reflect long-term weathering and lack of upkeep, offering a blank slate for an ambitious renovator to transform this property into something special.

Why This Property Stands Out

• Deceased Estate – realistic, motivated sale
• Large 960m² stand with beautiful mature trees
• Quiet cul-de-sac position in an established neighbourhood
• Multiple living levels offering flexible redevelopment options
• Significant renovation potential with strong future value

This is a true “buy it right and add value” opportunity for the investor, builder, or buyer ready to take on a project. Properties with this much potential — and this much space — seldom reach the market in Old Place.
