House for sale in Parkview

Behind elegant gates and a tree-lined brick driveway lies one of Parkview's most distinctive homes. Set on approximately 3,648 m² of magnificent grounds, a residence of classic grace, generous proportions and rare outdoor splendour.

Arrival and Reception

The grand entrance hall makes a striking first impression with its checkerboard floor, white columns, sparkling crystal chandelier, American shutters and rich wooden door frames. A sweeping staircase rises to the upper level. The formal lounge and the study are both carpeted and warmed by gas fireplaces, with wooden window frames framing the garden views. The study is a calm, private space for working from home.

Dining and Kitchen

The dining room is bathed in natural light from its glass skylight and is anchored by a gas stove, ideal for long winter dinners. The kitchen is both beautiful and practical, with a generous Caesarstone island, handcrafted wooden cabinetry, gas cooking, an extractor and a fully separate scullery to keep the main kitchen clutter-free. It flows into a welcoming pyjama lounge with a charming wooden bay window, the natural heart of family life.

Entertaining Outdoors

The covered patio is a true extension of the home. It features a gas fireplace, statement chandeliers and built-in surround sound, and opens straight onto the garden. A terracotta-tiled veranda adds a quieter spot for morning coffee.

The Garden

The garden is the crowning glory of this property. Terraced lawns step down past clipped hedges and topiary to a long, formal reflection pool lined with terracotta urns. Rose and lavender beds edge brick-paved paths, a vine-covered pergola shelters a garden bench, and mature jacarandas paint the grounds purple each spring. A sparkling swimming pool completes this private, park-like setting.

The Upper Level

The main suite is a luxurious retreat with a timber ceiling, gas fireplace, ceiling fan, walk-in closet and not one but two balconies overlooking the garden. It is served by two en-suite bathrooms. The first features a freestanding bath, marble finishes and crystal chandelier. The second offers a shower, basin and toilet.

Two further bedrooms are beautifully appointed. One has built-in cupboards, a ceiling fan and a Juliet balcony. The other has a private balcony and its own en-suite shower room. A second lounge with a Juliet balcony and ceiling fan, plus a further bathroom, complete this level.
