EXCLUSIVE MANDATE. The saying ‘Position, Position, Position’ could not be more apt for this elegant Hampton style home situated at Landsend! It is arguably one of the best locations in the whole of Knysna! This beautiful home faces true north and has spectacular views of the Knysna lagoon, towards town and the Outeniqua Mountains. You can honestly live with your ‘toes in the water’ as the lagoon reaches the northern boundary of this stunning property when the tide is high.
The large stand of over 1300 sqm is surprisingly private with Kingfisher Creek as one of its ‘neighbours’, one gets the feeling of being surrounded by nature. The large and gracious 4 bedroom home has ample and generous entertainment and living areas with a well-appointed open plan kitchen. All the living spaces and bedrooms are enveloped in the beautiful ‘million dollar’ vista. With this stunning outlook over the lagoon and proximity to the beach, one tends to live according to the tides and one never tires of the ever changing views! The property also offers endless activity with boating, birding, fishing and swimming right on your doorstep, or one could simply relax in the warm and sunny established garden.
Being true north, the house is a real suntrap all year round with ample space for outdoor living. On entering the house one is immediately captivated by the double volume entrance hall, staircase and views beyond the lounge to the lagoon. The spacious lounge with a fireplace opens up to the most glorious views. The dining room and well-appointed kitchen are located to the left of the lounge, and included here is the pub with wine closet leading directly into the entertainment area. The large well equipped kitchen has ample storage and leads directly into one of two double garages on the property. Both double garages are fully fitted with cupboards for storage and lead directly into the house. To the right of the entrance hall are two large guest bedrooms – both with bathrooms ensuite. There is an easy flow connecting the outdoors with the indoors as all the main rooms have doors leading on to a large, sunny and inviting verandah. Close to the kitchen is a maid’s room with an en-suite bathroom.
The main bedroom is up an elegant staircase and has a separate dressing room and ‘his’ and ‘hers’ separate bathrooms. The spacious main bedroom has breath taking views from the patio which runs across the full width of the house. There is a second bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, two studies and a TV lounge with a kitchenette on this level.
The property is fully fenced with an automated gate giving access to the property leading into the sizeable paved parking area shaded by two beautiful white stinkwood trees! The well-established garden has automated irrigation and a borehole - ‘spike’, there is also an outside shower and a garden storeroom.
