3 Bedroom House in Groenkloof

Set on a gentle north-facing slope within the exclusive Groenkloof Rif Senior Estate, this beautifully finished double-storey home captures uninterrupted views of the Outeniqua mountains from almost every living space. Generous, light-filled and thoughtfully designed across two levels, it is ideally suited to a family who wishes to live alongside their parents, offering each generation its own independent space under one roof, and equally well suited to those who enjoy having ample room for children, grandchildren or family who come to stay.

Available 1 November

The upper level opens into a striking living area beneath a vaulted ceiling with crisp white exposed trusses, where a wall of stacking doors frames the mountain backdrop and leads out onto a glass-balustraded terrace. An indoor braai makes this a space to enjoy in every season. The kitchen pairs rich timber-finish cabinetry with granite worktops, a gas hob, an electric oven and a generous island, while the adjoining scullery offers space for a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer and opens onto a paved courtyard with a washing line.

The main bedroom is a true retreat, with a walk-in dressing area lined with built-in cupboards leading through to a spacious, wheelchair-friendly full bathroom with both a bath and a large frameless walk-in shower, complete with grab rails and a heated towel rail. A further room with built-in cupboards adjoins the suite and lends itself well to a private study.

The second upstairs bedroom has its own en-suite shower room and built-in cupboards. A guest toilet completes this level.

A floating timber staircase with glass and stainless-steel balustrading connects the two floors.

The lower level is a home in its own right. A spacious living and dining area, finished with recessed downlights and elegant cornices, opens through wide sliding doors onto a paved patio and a sweeping lawn, with the Outeniqua mountains rising beyond. A handsome floor-to-ceiling timber shelving unit adds character to the dining space, while a kitchenette with a sink makes everyday living effortless. The bedroom is light and generously proportioned, with its own en-suite bathroom.

A versatile room fitted with extensive adjustable shelving and its own sink leads through to the neatly tiled single garage, and lends itself perfectly to use as a workroom, hobby space or additional storage. This makes the lower floor ideal as a self-contained living space for parents or extended family.

Practicality has been carefully considered throughout.

The double garaging includes a tandem bay, accommodating three vehicles, and the garages open on both sides for convenient access along the side of the home, with an additional single garage on the lower level. The home is tiled throughout, fitted with blinds, and equipped with an inverter and solar panels for peace of mind during load shedding.
