A RARE FRANSCHHOEK HERITAGE PROPERTY SET WITHIN A BREATHTAKING 2,000 SQM GARDEN
Exclusive Mandate. This historic gem, circa 1863, has been sensitively updated to present charming original features with a fresh, contemporary twist. The front facade is a recognisable landmark on Dirkie Uys Street and its large corner position conceals many hidden treasures beyond its walls, coupled with the most magnificent garden that you are likely to have seen in a while. A unique home and a very rare find even by Franschhoek standards.
The entrance opens into the original "voorkamer" which now presents a generous open-plan lounge with high ceilings and repeated sash windows fitted with their original wooden shutters for privacy. This living room could comfortably fit a study area. A large dining room leads off the lounge and offers a fireplace at one end with direct access to a quaint kitchen with all the mod cons. Both the kitchen and dining room are well positioned for entertaining with each offering glass doors out to the poolside terrace and pretty garden outlook. This original part of the main house incorporates a master bedroom suite with en-suite bathroom and walk-through dressing room with garden views across the pool as well as a second smaller bedroom with en-suite. A large, un-utilised loft within the roof space of the main house already has a bathroom with shower, basin & toilet and presents a great opportunity for upstairs living.
The l-shaped footprint is complete with two generous guest bedroom suites (plus en-suite bathrooms) incorporated in a poolside annex with outside access. The swimming pool area with outdoor lounge/dining terrace offers an ideal space for entertaining with gorgeous mountain views and charming garden outlook.
The garden is a feature of its own and lovingly planted to create a private sanctuary in the heart of the village. Watered by a private borehole and filled with large mature trees and rambling pathways, there is always an ideal spot to sit and enjoy this magical setting.
The property also offers a single garage, a large laundry/store room with staff toilet and a separate wine cellar.
