4 Bedroom House in Waterkloof Ridge

Luxury Family Residence - Double-Gated, Fully Off-Grid, Move-In Perfect

EXCLUSIVE MANDATE

Set at the end of a private panhandle, this substantial 710m² double-storey residence rests on a generous 1,672m² stand. A mix of wooden and aluminium windows, warm timber detailing and a sense of unhurried space gives it that rare quality - old-world charm that still feels thoroughly modern.

A gracious entrance hall draws you through to a large, light-filled study, an elegant formal lounge and a formal dining room. Beyond them lies a relaxed TV room and a billiard room table included.

At the heart of this special home is a stunning kitchen, fitted with a gas hob, under-counter oven, ample cupboard space, pantry and a breakfast bar.

Almost every living room spills out onto a deep covered patio with built-in braai and large stacking doors opening to the beautiful garden and sparkling pool with heat pump. An intimate outdoor seating area beneath a grand old tree is ideal for al fresco dining.

Upstairs is a private world of its own, secured behind a safe-haven gate. Four well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged for real family living: a generous main suite with a full en-suite bathroom that opens straight onto a covered balcony, a second en-suite bedroom, and two further bedrooms served by their own bathrooms.

A dedicated pyjama lounge doubles as a home cinema, fitted with a projector and screen, while a quiet study completes the floor.

Soft carpets, rich wood and ample built-in cupboards run throughout, with ceiling fans and air conditioning keeping every room comfortable in all seasons.

Genuinely self-sufficient, there are 20 solar panels, a 16kVA inverter with 25kWh of battery storage along with a 5kVA standby generator.

A borehole and two backup tanks 5,000 and 2,500 litres with booster pumps keep the taps running at full pressure regardless. Both municipal and borehole water is purified into the tanks, purified again on the way into the house, and polished by a dedicated system for drinking water.

Hot water is instant, with three 200-litre geysers and two under-counter geysers, and prepaid electricity keeps running costs in your control.

Security here is exceptional. Beyond SafeWaterkloofs suburb-wide monitored access, Bootes Street is an exclusive enclave of just 21 homes, closed off by its own security gate and CCTV with one camera overlooking the street gate so you can see exactly who is coming and going. The home then sits behind its own two gates on the panhandle, protected by an electric perimeter fence, an Ajax alarm with nine outdoor beams, interior sensors and five cameras.

Added value includes:

4 Garages plus a carport

Full staff quarters

A separate guest suite

A wine cellar and a storeroom with mezzanine

Laundry room

Garden room

Moments from the American Embassy, and within easy reach of the areas finest schools, top amenities and major routes leafy, established and quietly prestigious. Homes of this calibre, in this pocket of Pretoria, rarely come to market.
