My New House!... I'm Moving

[Ludwig Venter]

I currently live about 50km from work and being on permanent standby, I decided to get a place a little closer to work.... I got the keys today and will be moving during the next 3 weeks... (this place is about 3km from work. The place has a lot of plusses for it, but unfortunately only one enclosed garage... and although 3 bathrooms... none with a shower in it.

This is the driveway up to the house from the main gate.

Also from the main gate towards the house....

View from the back yard to the main gate with the outbuildings (servants quarters and garage) to the left and the house to the right.... My car is at the main gates

View towards the back of the house from the outbuildings

Back yard extending about 50m beyond the big tree....

Enclosed stoep area which will be....... my new fish room.. (My wife has not yet seen the house (surprise to her) so - new fishroom if I get the permission

And lastly, the outbuildings which will be..... my new fishroom.

Really nice place!
I saw your post where you were moving the fish over, lol!
Can i ask though, what does 'Stoep' mean?

I'd love to live out there; any chance that the servant qtrs are empty? I'm a dab hand with a mop and bucket

I'm under correction, but I think you guys call it a verandah??

You... (I) might've guessed that I would lose the quest to use the enclosed stoep (verandah) as fish room, so, unfortunately I'l have to (somehow) get along without your services. The servants' quarters is now my fish room.

#40## it!

However, the land is pretty big, I could build a mud hut
