SOLE MANDATE - FULLY FURNISHED AND EQUIPPED
The keynotes of this impeccable home are light and simplicity. Entering through a wooden gate, ascending plant fringed steps and through an oak pivot door, the first impression is of an open, light filled home, designed to bring light into every corner. Glass panels flank the front door and opposite, across the hall, is a picture window drawing ones attention to the gorgeous green fernery beyond. The hall houses an elegant wine showcase style cellar.
To the left of the hall are two bedrooms, one of which boasts an outstanding view across the whole of the Bay and shining Indian Ocean, with glass sliders giving onto a tiled patio. Both bedrooms have ensuite shower rooms. A third en suite bedroom is on the right of the hall, with the same ocean view. The double garage with shelves and work bench is accessed from the passage.
Slatted oak stairs lead up to an open plan living area. At the top, our focus is drawn to the open glass sliders inviting us out into a secluded entertainment space: a hardwood garapa deck with seating and a retractable awning, beside a firepit, and surrounded by an indigenous garden, so cleverly designed that you feel as if you are really in a forest wilderness.
Reluctantly leaving the garden, we turn back into a spacious open plan living area where the windows and glass sliders on three sides, plus the high white ceiling accentuate the light streaming in. The lounge has an up-to-the-minute closed wood burner with wood storage. The dining area, with an elegant white chandelier above the table, easily seats eight to ten people.
The open glass sliders spanning the length of the house invite us out to the partly covered garapa deck and solar heated rim flow pool - a lovely place to swim, sheltered in the lee of the house, enjoying a wide panorama of ocean and mountains spread before you: the misty Tsitsikamma mountains in the distance, while the Robberg Peninsula reserve is so close you feel you can almost reach out and touch it. Imagine lazy, sunlit days floating in the pool, eating al fresco with family and friends, sea birds wheeling above you, spotting whales, dolphins and seals frolicking in the sparkling waves. There is a shower beside the pool.
Back inside again, we note that the kitchen is functional, easy to work in, enclosed on three sides by counters with integrated electric cooker and soft close units, and an alcove for the fridge / freezer. Adjacent is a scullery / laundry with a pantry and leading out to a drying yard. A convenient hatch serves the dining area of the deck with its built-in wood braai. A guest toilet is close by.
The main bedroom is on this floor giving on to the deck, and of course, enjoying the same magnificent seascape. The en suite bathroom has a free standing bath, twin basins, spacious shower and, in common with the other bedrooms, the toilet is dual purpose, with bidet function.
On the practical side, floors throughout the house are hard wearing, low maintenance screed. An 11 kilowatt inverter with solar panels supplies alternative energy. There are rainwater tanks for automatic irrigation.
Security is taken care of with a perimeter wall, cameras, and alarm system. This lovely home emanates a feeling of serene simplicity with its clean lines, uncluttered space and abundance of light. Whale Rock is in an elevated position with lovely views all around. Shops, restaurants, services and schools are all within a few minutes drive, while the glorious Robberg Beach is an easy walk.
