Description

Nestled in the prestigious enclave of Helderrand, between the sought-after neighbourhoods of Parel Vallei and Golden Acre, but before the ascent starts to climb steeply towards distinguished Spanish Farm lies the exclusive Private Estate of Featherbrooke and within this Estate is this very special property.

This home successfully blends modern sophistication with warmth and character, a testament to its thoughtful curation as a forever home.

From the moment you step through the front door, the richness of expansive teak flooring sets the tone, unifying the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen spaces with the North-facing undercover barbeque and outdoor leisure area.
Stacking doors merge indoor and outdoor living, creating the charm of an alfresco dining experience on balmy summer evenings, while an imported gas fireplace lends an inviting ambiance to the lounge and surrounds during cooler months.

The exquisite teak flooring continues up the staircase to the upper level, where a generously-sized landing and pyjama lounge provide the ideal space for kids to do their thing while you're entertaining downstairs. The master suite is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring breathtaking views stretching toward Gordon's Bay, a luxurious marble-floored bathroom with underfloor heating, and a spacious walk-through dressing room with ample bespoke cabinetry. Each of the bedrooms extends onto its own private balcony, enhancing the home's sense of serenity and space.

An additional ensuite guest bedroom on the ground floor serves as an added bonus, complete with a well-appointed bathroom that doubles as the guest powder room.

Further distinguishing the home are a large study and separated off from the kitchen, a very convenient scullery and laundry room. The culinary space is a masterpiece in itself, featuring engineered-stone countertops, soft-close cabinetry, top-of-the-line Bosch appliances, and premium sanitaryware. A room intended for use as a walk-in pantry leads off the breakfast or casual-dining area.

The garden is very low maintenance for those looking for the ideal lock-up and go. The outside area also features a 12.5m pool.
