STORY OF NEBO
ORIGINATING FROM SOUTH AFRICA, NEBO HAS BEEN WITH US SINCE THE 1800'S.
LOCATED WITHIN THE SURROUNDINGS OF THE FICKSBURG MOUNTAINS, SA WAS A SMALL BARN ON A VAST FARM, WHERE MY ANCESTORS CONSTANCE EMILY MITCHELL & COLIN CAMPBELL SYDIE, LIVED.
THE BARN, WHICH WAS GIFTED TO THEM BY THOMAS MITCHELL IN 1894, WAS THEIR TEMPORARY HOME WHILST THE MAIN HOUSE WAS BEING BUILT.
AFTER COMPLETION, THE MAIN HOUSE WENT ON TO HOUSE FOUR GENERATIONS OF FAMILIES - AND THE NAME NEBO WAS BORN.
THROUGHOUT ITS TIME, NEBO HOUSE HAS SURVIVED THE BOER WAR, HOSTED THE ICONIC PERLA GIBSON (THE LADY IN WHITE, WW2), BEEN AROUND ROYALTY....AND NOW 120 YEARS LATER, NEBO HOMES LIVES ON.
BRONWEN'S STORY...
BEING EXPOSED TO NEBO FROM A YOUNG AGE IGNITED MY PASSION FOR PROPERTY AND DESIGN.
I GRADUATED WITH A DEGREE IN BUILDING SURVEYING AND EXTENDED MY QUALIFICATIONS INTO INTERIOR DESIGN. I SUBSEQUENTLY GAINED 5 YEARS EXPERIENCE, WORKING FOR SOME OF THE TOP DESIGNERS IN LONDON, UK, WHERE I UNDERSTOOD THE IMPORTANCE OF DESIGN AND HOW IT CAN MAKE A HOUSE INTO A HOME.
MY AIM OF NEBO IS CREATE EXPERIENCES THAT LEAVE A LASTING MEMORY. MUCH LIKE MY ANCESTORS, I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT HOSTING AND WANT TO ALLOW EVERYONE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE OUR BEAUTIFUL RANGE OF NEBO HOMES.
THANK YOU AND ENJOY BEING A PART OF NEBO HOMES.
BEST WISHES
