5 Bedroom House for sale in Plattekloof

A white stucco villa behind a gate, palms framing the drive, the kind of facade Plattekloof has built its reputation on. What it conceals is a contemporary glass-walled home, organised around a private courtyard and koi pond, climbing to an upper level where Table Mountain and Lion's Head appear in full, uninterrupted, through walls of glass. At 1,028sqm, this is the largest erf in Plattekloof at this price, and the architecture itself is the asset. The courtyard sits at the centre of the home, walled in glass, so the garden, the koi pond, and the light it throws are visible from almost every room around it. Above it, the entertainment level opens fully onto the mountain: slate floors, a built-in braai, glazing that turns the view into the room's main feature. Below, an indoor pool sits behind its own wall of glass, complete with bar and braai, a space built for entertaining regardless of season. Five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms are arranged across two levels, including two master suites with walk-through wardrobes and two further bedrooms with direct pool deck access. A former cinema room, fully fitted, awaits its next identity: screening room, gym, second lounge, library. The kitchen carries the same honesty as the rest of the home's interiors, brick splashback, dark stone island, built-in cabinetry, a space with strong bones and an open invitation for an owner to put their own signature on it. Set on the foothills of the Tygerberg Nature Reserve, the home enjoys a quiet, established setting twenty minutes from the CBD and fifteen from Tyger Valley, in a suburb defined by space, privacy, and mature gardens. Ideal for: buyers who want a home with genuine architectural character, and families who need real scale without giving up privacy. Parking: three garages, one with solar and inverter, one with water storage and purification, one extended length. Price: R8,490,000 Available by private viewing only.
