SPACIOUS AND IMMACULATE: A FIVE BEDROOMED HOME OVERLOOKING OCEAN.
BIG 5 MANDATE
Perched on the ridge above the sparkling blue Indian Ocean, this modern home is imaginatively designed on three levels, with five bedrooms to easily accommodate a large or extended family.
Entering through the glass paned wood front door, we find ourselves in a spacious, open plan living area. To the left is a guest toilet with bidet. On our right, is a large, comfortable lounge, complete with purpose built sofas, window seats and a gas fireplace; an alcove with useful shelving and the warm oak floor complete this lovely relaxing room.
Light streams in through the glass sliders and picture windows on three sides which invite us out to the deck with its glorious seascape - a panorama of the whole Bay from the misty Tsitsikamma Mountains and Nature’s Valley in the east to a close up view of the waves crashing against the rocks of the Robberg Peninsula reserve to the west.
You are spoiled for choice: waking to see the sunrise or relaxing in the evening to enjoy the magnificent sunsets. The partially covered outdoor entertainment area is delightful with a long angled pool, a braai area and a generous L shaped deck with plenty of space for al fresco eating, relaxing and sun bathing. The pool is safety proofed with a glass surround.
Back inside, we notice the distinctive dining area where a custom built table is designed to correspond with the unusual shape of the room. A wood fireplace and a coffee station neatly tucked into an alcove makes this a lovely space for formal dining. A central surround sound system has been installed.
The kitchen and dining area are separated by a Caesarstone breakfast counter long enough to seat about ten people. The large, streamlined kitchen is well equipped with a five hob gas cooker and two electric ovens. All appliances are neatly integrated with generous soft close units to create an easy space to work in. A walk-in pantry and scullery / laundry with drying yard are adjacent. This work area is tiled for easy maintenance.
There is one bedroom on this level: very comfortable, with a wood fireplace and built-in shelving. The dressing room has abundant cupboards; the full bathroom has twin basins. A private, walled garden is great for grandparents needing quiet time away from younger members of the family. As this home was purpose built to accommodate an extended family, all the bedrooms are of the same generous dimensions. All have underfloor heating and en suite bathrooms, though each has its own attractive individuality.
The upper level is conveniently accessed by a staircase at each end. Here are three bedrooms tinted in cool light grey with oak floors, all ensuite, with a dressing room, aircon, access to the balcony with a glorious view across the protected green belt to the wide ocean beyond. Although the same size, these bedrooms are not uniform, as in keeping with the unique architectural style some rooms have departed from the usual rectangle or square to incorporate a variety of angles and shapes.
The bathrooms have textured stone floors, but otherwise rendered different by creative features, such as a bath nestling into a beautifully tiled curved wall. One bathroom has a bidet, and each has a separate toilet. Fittings are top quality.
Let us move down to the lower level where we find an en suite bedroom, ideal for a guest or teenager. The private entrance gives onto a secluded treed garden.
The extended double garage with storage space is accessed here, and houses freezers and an inverter. A single garage is also accessed from the house.
Out of sight under the house are two 500l. water tanks.
