Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea and drink the wild air ... these words by Ralph Waldo Emerson so evocatively describe living in this gracious home with the azure ocean before you, beguiling you, wild and yet romantic at the same time...
From a bygone era, when homes embraced lofty ceilings and grande proportions, this property steeped in history has been built utilizing stone hewn from the nearby Trappieskop mountain.
Original restored wooden floors, beautiful Burmese teak shutters and a generously proportioned wrap around veranda will entice and charm. Ensconce yourself in this welcoming space as you welcome sunrise and the beginning of the new day.
The home offers expansive living/dining areas, three bedrooms, a large attic for storage, as well as outdoor storage areas, laundry (with iron bath), solar geyser, outside toilet, and a garage with attached carport.
Enjoy meandering through your larger than average, private coastal garden (with 5000l of raintank water storage), with its ever present nod to nostalgia. There is also a private gate giving access over the railway down to the sea.
Affectionately named The Dinghy for 125 years, this magical property, which has never been on the market, offers you and your family the privilege of being her new custodians for the next one hundred years.
