4 bedroom house for sale in Scottsville (Pietermaritzburg), 1PM1652037

Details

The house sits modestly from the street, giving little indication of its interior playfulness and complex three-dimensional assembly. Sloping high ceilings and generously sized windows at varying levels create a surprisingly well-lit and cool interior. Visual interest in all rooms is sustained by the unexpected: the bathroom shower opens onto a small, internal courtyard, the main living room wall is built with inclined courses of dark facebrick, matching the slope of the concrete roof it supports, an exotic seashell and mother-of-pearl rocaille panel crowns the dining room doorway, the work counter to the kitchen sink is top-lit by concealed clerestorey lighting. the only house in South Africa designed by iconic Mocambiquean modernist architect and Wits professor, Pancho Guedes . Offers 4 bedrooms each with built in cupboards, serviced by 2.5 bathrooms. There is a self-contained one bedroom flatlet ,complete with swimming pool and staff accommodation, automated gate access and undercover parking. You must see it to appreciate it. Call me to view.
