UNIQUE LUXURY HOME FOR SALE IN WINELANDS ESTATE

This unique home blending elements of Tuscan and Moroccan design themes is R27.5 million.

A unique home blending elements of Tuscan and Moroccan design themes has come onto the market in the acclaimed Winelands Estate, situated between Franschhoek and Paarl. Occupying close to 7000m², the property is being marketed exclusively by Pam Golding Properties, priced at
R27.5 million.


Space
PGP’s area manager for Franschhoek and Paarl, Surina du Toit, says the home offers over 1100m2 of living space, including four spacious en-suite bedrooms, all with their own fireplaces.

Gourmet Kitchen
The imported gourmet kitchen is finished in Caesarstone and is equipped to chef’s level, offering a gas stove, gas and electric ovens, a grill and pizza oven.

Living Areas
The home’s living areas include a spacious formal lounge and dining room separated by an open fireplace, as well as an informal lounge ideal for children to relax in. These flow out onto a covered patio with a built-in braai, which in turn leads onto the pool area with a long lap-style swimming pool and spectacular mountain views.

Unusual Design Theme
Du Toit says the home’s unusual design theme has been carefully crafted with immense attention to detail, including hand-painted murals and walls, magnificent stained glass work and doors imported from India.


The Winelands Estate occupies a magnificent position in the Berg River Valley, surrounded by a backdrop of rugged mountains and rolling vineyards.

Winelands Estate
PGP’s MD for the Boland and Overberg regions, Annien Borg, says the Winelands Estate occupies a magnificent position in the Berg River Valley, surrounded by a backdrop of rugged mountains and rolling vineyards. “The estate lies on a working wine farm, and enjoys a tranquil atmosphere with the peace of mind offered by 24-hour security,” she says.

Distinguished Neighbours
“It is home to a number of top-end luxury homes, and its distinguished neighbours include vineyards of international renown, such as Vrede en Lust, Backsberg, and Rupert & Rothschild.

Location and Access
But despite this peaceful rural setting, the estate is centrally located with easy access to big city amenities. The commute to Cape Town is just 30 minutes via the N1 highway, while Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl are all a short distance away.”
