Description
Situated on a picturesque tree-framed avenue, this beautiful original Newlands house has been well maintained and cared for over the years.
Filled with character, the home is masterfully built with hand cut sandstone hewn from Table Mountain, slate tiles, teak windows and solid wooden floors. Lofty pressed ceilings provide a feeling of space and grace, not found in modern properties. There are four bedrooms plus a spacious self-contained flatlet with kitchenette and separate bathroom in the coach house - connected to the main home via a double-volume entrance hall.
Three fireplaces are found in the living, dining and main bedroom suite. The double garage, staff accommodation and laundry complete this grande dame.
The well established garden and pool is expansive with multiple areas for relaxation and entertaining depending on the weather and time of day.
An approved subdivision with plans for a second dwelling gives one the option to further develop the property without compromising the value of the original homestead. Due to its position on the corner plot the newly built house would have a separate access from the road behind the property.
Sotheby's International Realty is proud to market this majestic property on a exclusive sole mandate. Our agent, Jennifer Lee is available at any time to set up an appointment to view.
