This beautiful heritage property offers three exceptional living spaces in the desirable and historic Observatory neighbourhood.

This beautiful property adheres to strict rules to maintain its original Victorian colonial character while providing modern amenities like new installations for water, electricity, and gas.

Blending heritage charm with modern amenities, this unique listing comprises a spacious main house (6a), a separate heritage home (6b), and a self-contained cottage - all situated on beautifully landscaped grounds with incredible mountain views.

Each structure has been thoughtfully designed to provide comfort, style, and functionality.

FRONT HOUSE
The artistically designed front house offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and tastefully preserved original Oregon pine floors and windows/doors. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room provide an inviting atmosphere with imported Italian tiles and light fittings. There is a six door folding steel/shatterproof glass door in the living room, in keeping with the home's style.

The two downstairs bedrooms are well-designed with comfortable beds and storage. They share a spacious bathroom. Upstairs, the loft bedroom with wooden shutters and a bathroom offers a peaceful retreat, along with a small balcony/terrace.

Unique features include the breathtaking rooftop sunroom, three dormer windows, a bent steel staircase, and an abundance of built-in cupboards and storage spaces. The fitted kitchen is nestled under the stairs. Coir matting lines the upstairs floors.

The front garden has a tiled area with a heated, lit, chlorinated pool and a covered carport with an insulated, waterproof roof and electric, remote-controlled gates. There is a retractable awning to provide shade over the veranda for alfresco dining.

This home also features a small but useful laundry space. It has an inverter for loadshedding, three-phase electricity, a German instant water heater, two gas cylinders for the cooking hob, and a prepaid electricity meter.

Amenities include a video intercom, a working original fireplace, an alarm with beams linked to armed response, electric fencing, WiFi, an insulated roof, and day/night sensor garden lights.

BACK HOUSE
The back house is artfully designed, stylish and functional, with two bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The spacious living area with a working fireplace and hardwood floors is flooded with natural light, making it perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is a culinary gem offering ample counter space and high-end appliances.

The downstairs bedroom opens through glass doors to the sizeable garden oasis featuring a built-in braai, heated and lit chlorinated pool system, storage bench along the boundary wall, and a hot and cold outdoor shower. Upstairs, a red staircase with built-in cupboards leads to the en suite main bedroom.

The large garage provides ample storage space with an electric remote-controlled Meranti wood door.

Modern amenities abound, including four CCTV video recording cameras on the street, day/night sensor-activated garden lights, a video intercom, a prepaid electricity meter, and a laundry room offering a washer/dryer, hot and cold water, and a retractable stainless steel drying rack.

COTTAGE
This spacious first-floor cottage offers independence and self-contained living, with a separate entrance and a veranda with a hanging garden.
Inside, you'll find a beautifully appointed living space with a Jetmaster gas/coal fireplace, Oregon herringbone parquet and tile floors, a dormer window, and an efficient layout. The kitchen is equipped with a gas hob, electric oven, dishwasher, and built-in cupboards.

The cosy bedroom has two storage container beds, while the bathroom offers a shower for convenience.

This extraordinary listing presents a truly rare opportunity - a heritage property offering not just one, but three renovated living spaces, seamlessly blending old-world charm with modern luxury across multiple structures.

Whether envisioned as a multi-generational family compound, an income property, or simply a primary residence, the possibilities are endless.
