Masebe House

Mkushi, South Africa


The house is located on a hill looking over extensive woodland and farmland and backed by a forest reserve. It is approached from the rear and consists of two parallel bands forming a courtyard and linked by a double story hub.

Deep verandas and overhangs blend into woodland to mask the body of the house. Panoramic views northwards to the Congo border are framed by local hardwood framed windows and doors.
