Cape Dutch Splendour

Western-Cape, Stellenbosch

1.700.283 € (32.000.000 ZAR) ID: 171875

This property is located on the foot of the Stellenbosch Mountains next to a unique and beautiful nature reserve. The entire region is renowned for its scenic beauty, flora and fauna, wine and fruit, gastronomic experiences, friendly hospitality and historical heritage. This secluded valley has minimal air pollution from toxic emissions and electromagnetic radiation caused by powerful telecom masts/towers. The property has breathtaking views overlooking the valley and surrounding mountains up to Table Mountain, a 40 minutes' drive. 

The improvements consist of the main homestead, a cottage, terraced gardens with a large swimming pool, an outbuilding with a sauna, an entertainment area with a viewpoint on the higher terrace and a small vineyard. The thatched roof homestead, built on 3 levels connected with majestic staircases, is designed and finished with perfection in mind. A soft pervasive theme of relaxing neutral colours envelops you from the moment you open the front door and walk through the spacious rooms. Natural materials of the highest quality like thatch, marble, granite, yellowwood, afrormosia wood, linen-weaved papers, and rock walls, are used throughout the structures.  The cottage has a large workshop which can be transformed into extra accommodation for family and friends. 

Rarely does a property of this calibre get offered to the market. The developer took maximum advantage of the tranquil and unique position and the expansive views. European sophistication and top-quality finishes meet African warmth in this Cape Dutch-styled property.
