The Baron von Elgg Estate Malmesbury''s Last Victorian Mansion. Opulence. Rarity. Legacy.
Built in 1875, The Baron von Elgg Estate is home to the last remaining double-storey Victorian mansion in Malmesburya once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to claim a living piece of history.
Commissioned by Baron Werdmller von Elgg of Zurich, the estate was crafted from materials meticulously selected from English catalogues and shipped to South Africa. Every detail reflects the aristocratic precision, artistry and craftsmanship of a remarkable era.
- Pressed Victorian ceilings and ornate plasterwork artistry from an era of true craftsmanship.
- Marble fireplaces, stained glass and sash windows intact, timeless, and filled with soulful light.
- Victorian tiles and decorative ironwork rare details modern homes can only envy.
This residence is not for the conventional buyer. It calls to the visionary collector, the aesthete, the dreamer who desires a home with a heartbeat.
With generous proportions and stately presence, it is both sanctuary and statement. Step into the gardens at dusk, and time itself seems to pausefor this house does not merely stand, it performs.
Offered as a complete estate spanning 2,588 m² across two separate title deeds, this remarkable property preserves the integrity of its original grounds while offering the flexibility of future consolidation, should a purchaser so desire.
A Victorian jewel.
A story.
A legacy.
Waiting for the one bold enough to make it theirs.
Private viewings by appointment only.
