Melrose House was built in 1886 by Pretoria businessman George Jesse Heys. During the Anglo-Boer War (1899 to 1902) it was requisitioned by Lord Roberts as headquarters for the British military, shortly after the invasion of Pretoria in 1899. The Peace Treaty of Vereeniging was signed at Melrose House on 31 May 1902, ending the war.
The Victorian-style home is ornately decorated, with lavish carpeting, stained glass windows and decorative ceiling panels.
