Franschhoek Heritage home with development potential
Exclusive Sole Mandate. This authentic four bedroom Cape Victorian style heritage property is set on a private corner stand in tranquil, tree-lined Akademie Street and has been sensitively renovated over the years to create a comfortable family home with much of its original charm, period features and sense of place. A gorgeous mature garden on over 1800sqm envelops the original home creating a sanctuary for the family and a canvas for potential future development without spoiling the feel of the current homestead and garden environ.
The home itself is understated and elegant with original wooden floors and sash windows lending to its charm. An entrance hall leads through to a cosy lounge with fireplace, eat-in country kitchen, separate scullery/laundry, a home office/library and three ground floor bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom and one shared family bathroom. Living areas lead out to a quaint covered patio with views of the Mont Rochelle mountains and a pretty garden setting. The garden rises in gentle terraces up to a private swimming pool with views back towards the house and the mountains beyond. The entire upper loft of the house has been converted into a large bedroom suite with private lounge and en-suite bathroom. This would be suitable as either a master bedroom, guest accommodation or kids/teen space.
The corner position of the property offers driveway access off a separate street with lots of parking and an approx 120 sq m garage building perfectly suited for conversion to a garden cottage or similar use. A private borehole completes this one-of-a-kind property with one of the most desirable addresses in Franschhoek.
