Architect-Designed Home in Riebeek Kasteel – A Tranquil Escape in the Heart of the Swartland
Nestled in the charming Riebeek Kasteel, one of the oldest and most picturesque villages in the Swartland, this exquisite single-story home offers a rare opportunity to embrace village life in a setting rich with vineyards, olive groves, and rolling wheat fields. Exclusively presented by Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty Winelands, this architect-designed residence by the late Douglas Roberts is a hidden gem, slightly elevated on 1,879m² of land in a quiet street, just 650 meters from the vibrant village center.
From the moment the current owner discovered this property, it was love at first sight. Designed to celebrate indoor-outdoor living, the home boasts an 18-meter lap pool, a gazebo for morning breakfasts, and a low-maintenance garden filled with mature olive trees, fruit trees, and a raised herb garden, all enhancing the peaceful, country-living experience.
The open-plan living and entertaining spaces flow seamlessly onto the covered patio and into the expansive garden, creating the perfect environment for relaxed family living and entertaining. High vaulted ceilings, large sliding doors, and minimalistic interiors with bamboo and tiled flooring enhance the home’s contemporary appeal, while a wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and charm for cozy winter nights. The modern kitchen, fitted with granite countertops, an electric oven with a gas hob, and ample cabinetry, is beautifully integrated into the main living area with a well-proportioned kitchen island.
The wrap-around stoep, located near the pool, is ideal for long-table summer dinners with family and friends, further reinforcing the home’s seamless connection to nature and outdoor living.
The spacious main bedroom offers direct access to the pool and garden, ample cupboard space, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, large shower, and separate toilet. The second bedroom also features an en-suite bathroom, plenty of cupboard space, and a private patio leading to the garden. The third bedroom, with an en-suite shower, toilet, and basin, opens directly onto the garden and can easily double as a pajama lounge, study, or studio. The double-volume vaulted ceilings present an exciting opportunity for future mezzanine extensions, allowing the home to grow with its new owner’s needs.
Perfect as a permanent residence for young families, a tranquil retreat for retirees, or an ideal weekend getaway for city dwellers seeking peaceful country living, this home is a true sanctuary in one of South Africa’s most sought-after villages.
With Riebeek Kasteel’s booming property market, vibrant café culture, award-winning wineries, and proximity to Cape Town, this is an exceptional investment opportunity in the heart of the Swartland’s scenic countryside.
