Property Description

Sole Mandate

Nestled at the foot of the majestic Swartberg mountain range in the Klein Karoo is a hidden gem. This beautifully elegant home is set within a 2040 Ha Private Wildlife Estate. The estate borders the Swartberg Reserve, part of the Cape Floristic Region and a World Heritage Site. The thought and attention to the position of the home on the property by both owner and architect are so evident and appreciated. It is on one level and overlooks the private dam (which is stocked for catch and release), gorgeous swimming pool and deck. From the extensive covered patio which runs the length of the exquisite home, you can watch the changing of the colours of the sunrise and sunset, and see the myriad of colours that affect the mountains with the change of season and time. 

Some years you might have the privilege of snow on the mountain peaks, an artist’s dream. To the left of the house, set in a huge gorge on the side of the Swartberg is the most incredible waterfall. From the house, you can watch, and have visit you, the abundant antelope and see them on the plains that roll in front of you. There is a sense of peace and beauty, unsurpassed, that is tangible when you arrive. This is Africa, in the Western Cape at its most precious, the vast wilderness, and beauty with all the comforts and subtle, unobtrusive management, at your disposal. There are 17 freehold properties in the Private Wildlife Estate, this property offers you the opportunity to be part of this select group.   

There is an abundance of wildlife, including endangered Cape Mountain zebra, giraffe, wildebeest, springbok, eland, gemsbok, kudu, waterbuck, nyala, lechwe, rhebuck and more. There are giraffe and wildebeest and bountiful bird life. This property has traversing rights as well. Activities include amazing walks, bike rides and game drives, there is even ancient rock art. The entire reserve is surrounded by a game fence. 

This is a 5-bedroom house, all en-suite, the bedrooms are most spacious and all overlook the dam, pool, mountains and plains, they have bronzed anodized aluminium sliding doors leading onto the large sandstone tiled covered patio. Each room has a bathroom, and extensive cupboard space, the bedrooms are spacious and large enough for the comfort of a couch and coffee tables. The open plan dining room/entertainment and kitchen are a warm and invitingly expansive area with the added bonus of a large fireplace, which then divides this area from the lounge/drawing room. Behind the lounge/drawing room is the family room with an enclosed stoep giving you the view from the other side of the house. There is also the convenience of a guest toilet close to the bar in the entertainment area.   

The kitchen is extremely well equipped with a large Aga stove, a wonderful island for breakfasting and all the mod cons needed these days in the kitchen. A very nice size scullery, yard and laundry. A double garage and double carport, providing undercover parking for 6 vehicles.

The attention to detail in every aspect of this house is remarkable and has been designer decorated. There is an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity in this home and on this property, it is quite breathtaking. This house and property are impeccably exquisite and at the same time comfortable and understated.
