In arguably the best part of the very special Oak Avenue – with amazing views over the historic Stellenberg grounds and heritage homes. This is truly a special property where the moment you arrive home you can shed the working day and focus on family – from time to time reminding yourself that you are not on an historic wine-farm in Franschhoek.
The entire home has been sensitively maintained and updated in order to retain the original charm – the house was built in the 1950’s with the craftsmanship and solid construction of that era. The living room with wood-burning fireplace has a large picture window taking in the stunning views – with adjacent dining room accessed through double doors – in turn accessing the generous covered patio overlooking the garden. The kitchen has been modernised with stone tops, multiple cupboards and Miele built-in ovens and hob, and space for dishwasher. There is an adjacent plumbed laundry/scullery.
The bedroom wing consists of four bedrooms – all with built-in cupboards. There are two bathrooms – main-en-suite plus separate guest loo. In addition, there are outbuildings with their own driveway consisting of a renovated bedroom with en-suite, and adjacent utility room – eminently suitable as a separate apartment or staff accommodation. The property also has a large double garage with storage room. There is an electric fence on the street boundary – plus modern alarm with external beams. All opening windows are barred.
From within the house you are not seeing any neighbours at all – perhaps the tops of the Stellenberg buildings – and there are mature trees everywhere. It is not often that a family home in prime position in this area so close to top schools becomes available – especially not homes on sizable grounds with such privacy.
