Description
With views, charm and character, this is a rare opportunity as properties in the prestigious Silverhurst Estate are seldom on the market.
A large Solax battery array system and 24 solar PV panels gives excellent protection from electricity outages, while a dedicated borehole, irrigation control, and sophisticated water purification system means you can live almost entirely 'off the grid' in this special home.
This beautiful property has wonderful proportions with multiple living and dining spaces for the largest of families to gather. The warm heart of this home is the gorgeous conservatory where stacker doors and windows can be opened up completely, creating a seamless flow to the garden and outdoor areas.
There are four bedrooms, including a guest suite/teen pad with its own kitchen, en-suite bathroom and separate entrance on the ground level. The spacious master bedroom suite on the upper level is a haven, offering views of the mountain from a private balcony, a sizable bathroom/dressing room with his & hers alcoves plus a private study.
Just off the conservatory is a spacious, elegant eat-in kitchen featuring beautiful beech cabinetry, stone countertops with integrated basins, a wide gas hob and an electric oven, plus other high-end fittings and appliances you would expect from a considered and thoughtful design.
On the entrance level, the large lounge is elegant and inviting with a large bay window, timber flooring and a gas fireplace for cooler nights. The dining room with a splendid chandelier is an opulent, intimate space for special guests, and next door is a beautifully fitted, spacious study. Doors open out onto a wraparound balcony from the lounge and the study. On the opposite wing are two large family bedrooms which share a full bathroom with a separate guest toilet.
On the ground level, you will find a large games room and TV lounge with a built-in pub and a billiard table, with doors opening out to the garden and a unique plunge pool. This level also serves as the entrance to the guest suite/teen pad, as well as the direct-access garage, storeroom and dedicated laundry area complete with laundry chute.
There is so much attention to detail here - exquisite architraves, exposed beams, leadlight elements, and hand-painted trompe l'oeil panelling by renowned SA artist Freya Lincoln in the lounge - which all add to the appeal of this wonderful home.
Being more of a boutique estate, beautiful spaces are the very essence of Silverhurst Estate. Common areas include two grass tennis courts and wonderful gardens, ponds and walking trails for residents to enjoy the serenity, security and luxury of a truly harmonious lifestyle.
