House sold in Colchester

A home like no other, this exquisite, off-the-grid facebrick home is located near the Sundays River in quiet Cannonville. Designed to offer modern comforts in a low maintenance, natural setting, every room is a tapestry of colour, careful design and comfort. The huge living area is open-plan with exposed ceiling trusses that ensure it's bathed in natural light. Within the footprint is a delightful kitchen with a trendy wood burning stove, wooden cupboards, open shelving, and space for a dining set. Adjoining it are the lounge and entertainment room, which boasts a built-in braai and has room for a large table and chairs. Chandeliers illuminate the entire area at night, creating a magical ambience. The seamless entertainment flow continues through sliding doors to the water-wise garden, planted with indigenous shrubs and dominated by hard landscaping such as gravel and paving. A treat for parents, the main bedroom has built-in cupboards, a beautiful en suite bathroom and doors to a private covered patio with a Jacuzzi that overlooks the garden. In addition to two more bedrooms, there's also a superb family bathroom in the passage, with a modern tub, double shower, basin and toilet. Completely enclosed with electric fencing, automated front gates and a double garage on remote, an alarm system adds peace of mind. Other features include a laundry area in the garage, a large boathouse, and an advanced off-the-grid solar system installed in 2022. It comprises a 5kW Sunsynk inverter, 4 UP5000 Pylontech Li-ion batteries (19kW total power) with an 8000-cycle guarantee, 16 x 330W solar panels (5.28kW capacity), a solar geyser system and backup generator socket for added resilience. Water supply is municipal but has additional water storage provided by 2 x 5000 litre and 2 x 2 500 litre water tanks with a pump. The cherry on the top is the home's 500m proximity to the Sunday's River with its fishing, swimming, boating and other water sports options, and almost-as-close supermarket and popular Grunter's Restaurant.
