3 Bedroom House in Barrydale

Light the Fire, Pour the Drinks, Step Into a Twenty-Year Route 62 Business Exclusive MandateMore than two decades of hospitality, gathering and goodwill have made this Route 62 lodge, restaurant and pub one of Barrydale''s most loved addresses, and it is now offered to the market as a fully operational going concern. Positioned on the main road through Barrydale, alongside the village''s most established hospitality and tourism businesses, the property enjoys constant visibility, steady walk-in trade and the kind of address that does not come up often.The sale is non-VAT registered and includes the property, the thriving business, all furniture, fittings, equipment, inventory and the established digital presence across Airbnb, LekkeSlaap, Travelground and social media. Step in on a Monday morning and you are already trading.The 657 m2 erf carries approximately 600 m2 under roof, thoughtfully laid out so the home, the hospitality and the business flow as one without either compromising the other. The lodge sleeps up to twelve guests across three beautifully appointed en-suite rooms with direct garden access, two of which include kitchenettes well suited to self-catering and extended stays, while the third opens onto its own patio and outdoor seating.Five bathrooms serve the property in total, and a separate flexible studio works equally well as a study, a manager''s accommodation, or back-of-house support space, depending on how you choose to run things. The fully equipped commercial kitchen powers both restaurant and pub service, while an indoor fireplace, shaded garden seating under flowering trees, and a saltwater swimming pool keep guests comfortable across every Klein Karoo season, indoors in winter, outdoors in summer.It is the gathering, though, that gives this place its soul. The Saturday bring-and-braai is a Barrydale institution. Live music, comedy evenings, birthdays and biker meet-ups all happen here, without fanfare, because they always have. Fully liquor licensed and trading seven days a week including late hours, it remains one of the very few late-night venues for miles, which is exactly why locals, cyclists, road-trippers and Route 62 bikers continue to make it their stop, their meeting place and, more often than not, their reason to stay another night. Multiple income streams across accommodation, food and beverage, and private events keep the business as stable as the reputation behind it.Practical comforts are all in place, with fibre Wi-Fi, CCTV security, full wheelchair access throughout, and the property is pet friendly. The home, lodge and business arrive fully furnished and fully equipped, included in the sale.Winter is the most considered season to take on a business like this, a calmer handover, fireside evenings to learn the rhythm of the place, and time to settle in well before spring brings the bikers, the cyclists and the road-trippers back to Route 62.
