About this property

Exclusive Dual Mandate. In the heart of the Franschhoek Valley, set within one of the village’s most prestigious and intimate security estates, lies a residence that captures the romance and timeless elegance of the Cape Winelands. Surrounded by rows of manicured vineyards and framed by the dramatic Franschhoek mountains, this exceptional north facing home enjoys breathtaking 360-degree views that change beautifully with the seasons, creating a setting that is both serene and deeply inspiring. Designed for both refined living and effortless entertaining, the residence offers an impressive 525 square metres under roof, where generous proportions and thoughtful design come together in perfect harmony. From the moment one enters the home, a beautifully appointed guest bathroom welcomes visitors, while the sense of space is immediately evident through the soaring high volume ceilings that enhance the light and grandeur of the interiors. The home unfolds into expansive open plan living spaces where the lounge and dining areas flow seamlessly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for family living or elegant gatherings. At the heart of the home, a gourmet kitchen fitted for the discerning cook is complemented by a separate scullery and laundry, allowing for both practicality and style when entertaining. Above, a very large, cleverly converted upstairs space overlooks the living areas and offers a versatile retreat that can be enjoyed as a quiet library, an inspiring work from home office, or even a dedicated wine storage and tasting area, which could be a fitting feature within the celebrated Franschhoek wine valley. Large doors open onto an enclosed patio designed for year round enjoyment, where indoor and outdoor living blend effortlessly. From here, the view stretches across the estate’s vineyards and olive trees toward the majestic mountain ranges that define Franschhoek, while the beautifully positioned, heated swimming pool provides a tranquil focal point for relaxed afternoons under the Winelands sun. Accommodation is generous and private, with four beautifully appointed bedrooms, of which three are en-suite and the fourth bedroom shares one of the bathrooms, offering comfort and tranquillity for residents and guests alike. A particularly appealing feature is the separate, fully contained studio apartment attached to the home, with its own separate entrance, ideal for visiting guests, extended family, or as a private creative retreat. In addition, the property includes a separate workers’ living area, thoughtfully positioned to provide practical and comfortable accommodation while maintaining the privacy and seamless flow of the main residence. The home’s classic thatched architecture adds warmth and character, perfectly suited to the surrounding landscape, while three garages provide ample space for vehicles and storage. Above the garage is an expansive well appointed gym, for those wanting to keep a balanced lifestyle. Meticulously maintained and presented in impeccable condition, this is a property where nothing needs to be done, a truly turnkey opportunity for the discerning buyer seeking privacy, exclusivity and an authentic Winelands lifestyle within a secure estate. Opportunities to acquire a home of this calibre, in such a coveted Franschhoek address, are exceptionally rare. For the astute purchaser who values beauty, tranquillity and prestige, this residence represents a remarkable and seldom found offering in the heart of the Cape Winelands.
