Solar powered family home with office

Be enchanted the moment you enter this stunning, North facing Victorian family home with large wraparound garden, a dream of space, storage and light.

A few steps lead to the elevated sunny stoep from where you look out over the city and Signal Hill whilst the kids splash around in the pool, play on the astro turf in the shade of the lemon tree, or hide away in the treehouse. The leafy garden can be accessed from three sides of the house allowing for great indoor/outdoor living.

Inside you’ll find original Oregon Pine floors, high ceilings, beautiful arches and lots of living space. The kitchen has stainless steel countertops and an island with an extra large gas stove and oven. There is a scullery with space for two appliances and a large pantry cupboard. The kitchen flows into the dining area and into a living area with a closed fireplace. Floor to ceiling stacking doors open this area up to the garden.

Downstairs there are four bedrooms situated next to each other, as well as a family bathroom with bath and large walk-in shower. One of the bedrooms is currently annexed to the office but can easily be part of the house again. The first floor has a stunning master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a dream of cupboard space. It opens up to a large balcony with gorgeous views of Table Mountain. The en suite bathroom has a bath, large vanity and walk-in shower with a picture-perfect view of Lion’s Head. On this level is another amazing feature of the house, a study / nursery / stargazing/ yoga room, where the windows on three sides offer jaw-dropping views over the harbour, city and mountains.

From the back of the house or via the driveway you can enter the architecturally designed office. It offers three connected work areas with screed floors, bespoke custom shelving and desks, easily fitting up to eight people, and with its own bathroom and kitchen. The office space could work well for any small business with space for up to eight people, or it can be converted in a income-generating flatlet. There is secure tandem parking behind an automated gate for up to two large cars.

Twelve solar panels were installed in 2020 resulting in truly minimal electricity usage, and to ensure both home and office are unaffected by load shedding. Water usage can also be minimised with two Jojo tanks providing 5000L water storage. Very secure, fully alarmed with beams and electric fencing for complete peace of mind.

Ideally positioned, walking distance to Herzlia, St Cyprians and Cape Town Montessori School. Lazari coffee shop just across the road and Gardens Shopping Centre a hop and skip away. The beaches of Clifton, Camps Bay and many mountain trails are just a short drive away.
