House sold in Muizenberg Upper

GRACELAND
Built-in 1914, this historic Cape Mediterranean home is positioned against a dramatic mountain backdrop with sweeping views across False Bay to Cape Point. Surrounded by over a hectare of established and largely indigenous terraced gardens, fed by a perennial mountain stream and stretching up the hillside to Boyes Drive, this landmark property represents a unique opportunity to acquire a private estate in this historic and sought after area of Cape Town's South Peninsula.
Stone walls line the lower perimeters and a gently curving driveway leads from an imposing entrance gate to the residence with its distinctive chimneys, elegant loggias, covered porticos and signature majolica roof.
High ceilings and perfectly maintained wooden floors, doors and sash windows are a feature throughout, with a large entrance hallway linking the elegant formal lounge and wood-paneled dining room and both enjoying views over the garden to the shoreline and across the Bay
A classic wide stairway leads from the hallway to the upper floor which comprises a spacious landing opening to a pillared verandah and four very generous bedrooms, two opening onto private balconies which face the sea and two looking out over the gardens and the mountain behind them.
Designed in keeping with the architecture of the main house and with independent access, is a comfortable Lodge House which is situated above the garage and staff quarters.
Having been featured in several local and international interior design magazines, this stately home speaks for itself.
