Location
Durbanville, situated in the greater Cape Town metropolitan area, is a semi-rural residential suburb on the north-eastern outskirts of the metropolis surrounded by farms producing wine and wheat.
Durbanville has developed into one of the most sought-after northern suburbs of Cape Town. Although gated communities are on the rise, the town still retains its small-town atmosphere given that it is still mostly surrounded by farmland.
Description
Set back from the road, this property offers both privacy and tranquility, making it an ideal retreat for families seeking a balance between everyday convenience and upscale living.
A spacious driveway leads you to a grand entrance that opens onto a light-filled foyer. With sleek tiles underfoot and a striking staircase, the foyer sets the tone for the sophisticated design and thoughtful layout that defines this home. To the right, double wood and glass doors reveal a vast, open-plan kitchen, dining room, and TV lounge. The heart of this space is a beautiful gas fireplace, flanked by a stylish wine display cabinet and a coffee station. The kitchen itself is a chef's dream, featuring a central island with a gas hob, an induction plate, and a 900-inch under-counter oven. Just beyond, a spacious pantry and a fully equipped laundry/scullery offer ample storage and space for three appliances, with direct access to the double garage and backyard.
On the opposite side of the ground floor lies a private guest suite, which opens onto the front play area, complete with synthetic grass and playground equipment. This suite includes its own bathroom and can serve as a comfortable retreat for visiting friends or extended family.
Next to the guest suite, an indoor entertainment room and barbeque area, equipped with both gas and wood options, await lively gatherings. Stacking doors seamlessly connect this space to the garden and pool, where a free-standing pizza oven can be enjoyed either indoors or outdoors.
Upstairs, an elevated walkway leads to the main bedroom - an opulent sanctuary with double-volume ceilings, air-conditioning, and a private balcony. This spacious suite includes a walk-in closet and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a bath, shower, toilet, and double vanity.
Across the walkway, two additional bedrooms, also with air-conditioning, share a balcony and a full bathroom. This side of the first floor also features a dedicated work-from-home area and an entertainment room with vinyl flooring.
A fully-fitted home office, with wrap-around windows that showcase stunning views of the Stellenbosch mountains, completes this wing.
A collapsible ladder provides access to a versatile loft space, perfect for storage or creative pursuits like an art studio.
Beyond the main house, a separate flatlet with a kitchenette and bathroom offers a private space for extended family or guests.
The property's easily-maintained pool area is surrounded by wooden decking, creating a relaxed setting for sunny afternoons. This home also features a full inverter system with solar panels and a comprehensive home automation system for lighting.
