The prestigious home on offer is situated in Olympus, Pretoria
British influences on South African architecture have become somewhat timeless and endearing. Take that architecture, put a slight modern spin on it and what you have is a spectacular jewel of a family home with all the trimmings to rival its colonial counterpart.
The unmistakable curb views is extra appealing with the large porch leading to the front door, the detailed steel railings and even the limestone like stairs leading up to the front door. The irrigated landscaped and manicured gardens play their part in the ensemble setting that feeling of utter calm. Even from this vantage point the home is large but not overbearing or imposing.
The interior proportions of the home create a perfect balance of volume and space with vaulted ceilings adding volume and natural sunlight adding the accentuated space. Rich warmth permeates the living areas from wood flooring. A catching fireplace set in the lounge will no doubt serve its duty well in winter months and adds to the character of the lounge as a classic use of a lounge space. Solid wood French doors open up to the back of the garden which leads to another covered patio which also has a built-in braai.
The TV room has the perfect ambience for a family to spend time together with sunlight permeating every corner of the room. One could imagine the acoustics in the TV room to be balanced perfectly with the wood floors absorbing background noise.
On the other side of the lounge wall the dining room sits, perfectly placed as part of the heart of the home.
When one speaks of bespoke kitchens then this one has to be added to the list with faultless craftsmanship and the best materials and fittings to present an ergonomic and aesthetical work space. Granite countertops and cupboards are a perfect balance doing away with clutter of “too much”. There is a pantry for larger bulk items as opposed to hundreds of smaller untidy cupboards. The scullery offers extra storage space and the appliances are serving duty out of sight.
A games room is perfect for a challenge at some preferred game.
The bedrooms are exquisite with copious amounts of sunlight warming the elegantly sized bedrooms and the same rich earthy wood flooring and large custom crafted and fitted built-in cupboards are all fitted with perfection. The bedrooms, from the master bedroom to the remaining four bedrooms have the latest in accessories and faultlessly fitted en-suite bathrooms.
There is a study for the person who can and does work from home.
A large entertainment room with an elegant cocktail bar is set in a less formal ambience to the TV room and also has a large built-in fire place.
The backdrop of the hillock just adds to the appeal of the home.
