This idyllic Michael Dall-designed home is built on the ridge of Spilhaus Avenue and enjoys the most spectacular mountain views and also overlooks the Constantia Valley.
The house sits discreetly down a short driveway below the road giving great privacy and on entering the property you are sharing a world of tranquillity and elegant luxury.
The gardens are mature and impeccably landscaped. The main house is full of country elegance and charm and there are numerous stylish design features and the impressive dimensions do not detract from its primary function as a warm and beautiful family home.
The high-ceilinged entrance hall has two sweeping timber staircases, winding up to the first floor, with a study and four large bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. The main bedroom has a pyjama lounge, walk-in closet and its own private balcony with breath-taking views towards the mountain.
The ground floor offers multiple options for both entertaining and relaxing, having inter-connecting doors to a number of rooms all which lead out to the covered entertainment terrace. These doors can be opened to create a larger, more open space, or closed to create more intimate areas. They include a drawing room, formal dining room, entertainment room, lounge, family room and playroom. A relaxed and informal eating area leads into the lovely farmhouse kitchen, with a large central unit, range cooker and separate large scullery area and direct access up to the garages.
All the reception rooms lead out to the spacious, covered veranda with an easy indoor, outdoors flow. The veranda is dappled with vines and protected by vertical electric weather blinds. The outdoor entertainment area includes a large 6 x 12m swimming pool, sun terrace and braai area to the side of the house.
The home is also equipped with three large garages, two carports, two boreholes providing filtered water for the house and irrigation for the garden, a recently installed and full blown inverter system with extensive solar panels and multiple batteries , a generator and a fully equipped staff apartment. In addition there is a two en-suite bed Guest Cottage with an open plan sitting room and kitchen and private entertainment area and a separate access. Security on the entire property is excellent.
There are two entrances to the property, one to the main house and one to the stables and paddocks. Currently, the estate is a state-of-the-art equestrian property which includes stables, paddocks and a dressage arena. The current owners understand that some interested buyers might not have a requirement for these facilities and are open to discuss a lease back or even a future subdivision of this portion of the estate.
