An Art-Lover’s Retreat

This totally private modernised Victorian opposite the historical Waterhof Bird Sanctuary, is a home forever. Dating back to the early 1900s, the interplay between space, line, texture and natural light coming from three sides of this unique corner terrace makes this home the perfect place to display and enjoy beautiful art. Paintings and sculptures, whether old masters or modern masterpieces will live comfortably here.

A large inter-leading lounge and dining area with a freestanding fireplace allow bounteous get-togethers with a seamless flow to either a courtyard garden with a view of Lions Head or raised balcony over the garage surrounded by verdant greenery.

The kitchen is a foodie’s dream with plenty of prepping and storage space as well as a seating area for family and friends. Space is well considered to accommodate all large kitchen and laundry appliances.

Underneath the beautiful Oregon pine staircase is a private guest loo.

Upstairs are two charming half landings where more gallery walls await. These lead to three bedrooms and two newly appointed bathrooms, one with a modern freestanding bath and the other with a shower. The main bedroom with a view over the historical Waterhof Bird Sanctuary has a full wall of built-in cupboards and a Juliet balcony to enjoy the sounds of birdsong and the river stream across the road where docking ships got their fresh water from in the 1600s. Both second and third bedrooms have built-in cupboards and the bedroom on the North has a Juliet balcony.

The garage has secure access into the property where one passes a neatly concealed drying yard with easy access straight into the kitchen.

This unique character home is located ideally for a couple or family with children at Jan van Riebeeck schools, conveniently close to Kloof Street’s world-class amenities, De Waal Park to walk your dogs and the Medi-Clinic for your convenience and peace of mind.
