Description from owner

Description

Mananga is a two bedroom house with ensuite bathroom and shower. The central room being the kitchen overlooks the lounge which opens up onto the patio. The design is focused around allowing space for visitors and open plan which results in the rooms and kitchen/lounge each being 6m x 10m in size. The house has a large patio area for outside entertaining or lounging, a full 5m across the entire width of the front of the house.

The roof design was made with solid beams of wood to create a unique and natural look and feel which fits in well with its surrounds.

All the wood work was personally designed and constructed by both Josie and Grant on site at the house during the building process giving the house a truly custom design and personal touch.

The patio boasts a large outside table for entertaining along with custom lounges for each room, ideal for sunrise or sunset viewing :)

Our goal was to ensure each person visiting Mananga will be at ease to relax and feel special whilst enjoying the natural surrounds in comfort.

The house is approximately 900m from the main Kruger Gate for Kruger National Park.
