The most famous house in Fouriesburg was at one time the abode of M.T. Steyn, the heroic president of the Orange Free State Republic. It was built around 1896. Used as a hospital during the Anglo-Boer War.

A majestic five-bedroom sandstone house with wooden framed doors and windows, original Oregon pine floors, and steel pressed ceilings. Warm up at the fireplace in the lounge with a bay window looking out onto the beautiful garden.  The large dining room is a lavish setting for your entertaining dreams. 

The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom. A separate bathroom serves the other bedrooms. One or two rooms could be utilized as a study or workroom. The large farm-style kitchen with an adjacent scullery gives you optimal workspace. Three large stoeps let you enjoy outside catering and secluded seating accessible from the dining room and the two rooms opening onto them. The house contains five fireplaces to keep you warm and cozy during the cold winter.

The old barn was renovated to serve as a separate flat with a storeroom that is ideal for a tenant or your guests. A Wendy house in the garden serves as a garden storeroom or servant’s quarters. Enjoy the opulence of the garden on this neat four-stand property, watched over like sentinels by enormous oak trees.

Three carports are available for your vehicles. The property is fenced with palisade.
