Property Description 

This exceptional 8.7-hectare property in the Midvaal Non-Urban area presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational, income-generating hospitality investment with further expansion potential. Ideally located near the Vaal River, the property hosts the well-known Riverview Pub and Grub,  a licensed and established venue that has become a popular local destination for casual dining and entertainment. The facility includes a fully equipped bar, restaurant, and kitchen, all designed for seamless hospitality operations.

In addition to the main business, the property offers two 2-bedroom ensuite chalets, each crafted for family getaways or short-term retreats. These units are currently used for bookings and leisure stays, contributing to diversified revenue streams. The main residence, a spacious one-bedroom ensuite home, features a large upstairs balcony with expansive views of the riverbank, an ideal owner’s residence or on-site management accommodation.

Supporting the property’s functional design is a warehouse/garage structure attached to an unfinished flatlet, allowing for further development or conversion into additional accommodation or storage space. Infrastructure includes a JoJo tank and pump room, ensuring a stable and efficient water supply system.

Combining hospitality, accommodation, and residential components, this property offers investors the chance to step into a turnkey lifestyle business with established operations, brand recognition, and tangible growth prospects. Whether retained as an income property or expanded into a broader tourism and events destination, Riverview Pub and Grub presents a unique, multi-stream investment in one of Gauteng’s most scenic and promising corridors.

Area Description 

Midvaal’s non-urban corridor has become a prime focus area for investors seeking affordable, high-potential hospitality and mixed-use opportunities along the Vaal River region. The area bridges the gap between Johannesburg’s urban sprawl and the Vaal’s lifestyle and tourism belt, offering the best of both commercial accessibility and natural tranquillity. As a result, it attracts consistent investment interest from leisure developers, guest lodge operators, and small business owners targeting the expanding local tourism economy.

The RiverView property benefits from its strategic positioning near Deneysville and the Vaal Dam, key leisure hubs for Gauteng residents seeking weekend getaways, water-based activities, and rural retreats. Midvaal Municipality’s infrastructure investments and its pro-development policies continue to enhance accessibility and service provision, creating a fertile environment for sustainable business growth.

Its tranquil riverside surroundings, paired with growing visitor numbers and local development activity, make this a standout location for hospitality, lifestyle accommodation, or tourism enterprises. Investors can capitalise on a flourishing tourism node within driving distance of Johannesburg, supported by ongoing infrastructure expansion and increasing consumer demand for countryside experiences and destination venues.
