Imagine coming home to this wonderful, heritage home in Observatory every day. Full of character and charm with a fantastic flow from front to back. A definite Finders Keepers - so don''t miss out!
A wide front stoep and garden run the length of the house and make for a statement entrance.
Step inside this much loved period home brimming with high ceilings, sash windows and wooden floors. The entrance hall leads to the library, boasting a wall length, built-in bookshelf stocked with the classics, which commands the impressively sized dining room, easily accommodating dinner for 12, connecting seamlessly to the lounge and entertainment area. Lovely, long evenings will be spent enjoying a home cooked roast and a board game with the family.
In the spacious kitchen you''ll find a gas freestanding stove, ample built-in cabinets and expansive windows opening out to the covered patio, where you can entertain further with a built in fireplace/braai and, for those chefs amongst you, an additionally installed Dover Stove (wood burning). Long, lazy Sunday afternoons will be spent enjoying the company of friends and family in this idyllic, bohemian garden setting.
In addition, we have the fabulous George Bernard Shaw writers cottage complete with gorgeous stain glass windows, nestled discretely in the garden to utilise as you wish! The low maintenance garden also features a covered wooden deck perfect for a quiet reading session or that morning coffee to start your day on a good note. For those with green fingers, the owners started a kitchen vegetable garden so you can continue to grow your own from home.
The master bedroom is exceptional with a double door entry, large ensuite dressing room and gorgeous bathroom with a feature freestanding bath looking out over the rear gardens. In the bedroom there is double door access to an outside shower. The second bedroom is spacious and ensuite with a newly renovated shower room and this also, has access to the outside shower.
This is the perfect combination of old-world charm with all the modern amenities. Conveniently located in close proximity to all that Cape Town has to offer, as well as our top schools and Universities to boot. This home is looking for a new family to make it their own spacious, private, and perfect for entertaining family and friends.
