House for sale in Thornhill Estate

Some homes simply feel different the moment you arrive. This is one of them!

Located within the secure, leafy surrounds of Thornhill Estate, this beautifully considered four-bedroom residence offers something increasingly rare, a genuine sense of sanctuary. Mature trees, abundant birdlife, and sweeping green belt views create a natural backdrop that makes the outside world feel very far away.

Inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining room, and lounge flow effortlessly together, anchored by an indoor braai and framed by expansive glass doors that dissolve the boundary between home and garden. A study area sits adjacent, easily absorbed into the living space when entertaining.

Three bedrooms occupy the ground floor. One forms a fully self-contained flat, complete with its own kitchen, en-suite bathroom, and private lounge opening onto the green belt; ideal for extended family, young adult, or rental income. The remaining two bedrooms share two well-appointed bathrooms, and the broader layout lends itself beautifully to boutique guesthouse or Airbnb use.

The entire upper level is dedicated to the main suite, a private 70m² retreat with his-and-hers walk-in cupboards, a luxury bathroom, a combustion fireplace, and glass doors opening onto the treetops. A true sanctuary above it all.

A loft with its own fireplace adds further versatility as a hobby room, cozy lounge, home office, or additional bedroom.

Sustainability and security are built in. Solar power, battery backup, heat pump geyser, and a water backup system ensure the home runs reliably and efficiently. A double garage and undercover carport complete the picture.

This is a home for those who value privacy, nature, and room to breathe; without compromising on comfort or security.
