Exquisite Country Sanctuary - Where Peaceful Living Meets Timeless Luxury!

Nestled just a few steps away from the iconic Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens, this enchanting property offers a perfect blend of tranquillity and modern living. Picture yourself waking up to the soothing sounds of a waterfall and catching glimpses of majestic eagles soaring overhead. Surrounded by towering trees and lush, rolling lawns, this home is a true sanctuary that invites you to unwind and embrace the beauty of nature.

This meticulously maintained country home boasts 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage, complete with a kitchen and cosy lounge that opens up to the serene garden. A brand new 5kW Deye solar system has been installed, ensuring energy efficiency.

The home’s unique character is enhanced by exposed timber beams that grace the high ceilings, creating an inviting, rustic atmosphere. All of the bedrooms have access to a spacious under-roof patio that overlooks the garden and the inviting pool.

The cottage enjoys its own private entrance and a patio that overlooks the expansive garden, making it perfect for guests or additional rental income. Gather around the authentic old-fashioned thatched boma for evening relaxation under the stars. The boma also features a small kitchenette and ablution facilities, adding to the convenience and charm. For the kids, there’s a trampoline, and an enchanting dolls' house to fuel their imagination.

The property is self-sustained with an equipped borehole that provides water, while the garden benefits from an efficient irrigation system. Inside, the living areas offer a warm and welcoming atmosphere, featuring a double-sided fireplace and a wine cellar for added luxury.

This property offers the ultimate "farm-feel" lifestyle, while still being close to all the amenities you need.

Location, Lifestyle and Convenience

Located in the exclusive Poortview (also known as Ruimsig), this property is perfectly positioned to enjoy both the peacefulness of country living and the convenience of city life.
