The peaceful interior of this beautiful home in the heart of Observatory belies the creative buzz that fuels Observatory life. The house wraps around a lovely courtyard, overlooked by Table Mountain.
Light pours into the galley-style kitchen through a cleverly raised ceiling, and French doors open onto the back courtyard. And of course, as with all happy South African homes, there’s a built-in braai area.
The kitchen opens into the lounge at the centre of the home, and every room flows from this central space. Flanking the front passageway are two generous bedrooms, both en suite.
The main bedroom opens onto the back courtyard, and its en suite bathroom is truly unique. On the back wall, teak barn doors open to a creatively mosaiced outdoor shower. The handcrafted brass tub is encased in Japanese cedar, the vanity is made of reclaimed Oregon pine, and the side wall is clad in cherry wood. The scent of wood fills the room.
The front door opens onto a high veranda overlooking the front garden, and behind the house are four garages, accessed via a servitude down the side.
This house has everything: creative, tranquil energy, indoor and outdoor entertainment spaces, loads of parking, and three bedrooms, all en suite. Contact the agents to schedule a viewing.
