Where Ferrari's and horses share the same road as they go about their day, and you need to keep your eyes open for the resident leguaan as he wonders up the wetland from the river - Prepare to fall in love.
Situated on a quiet tar road in Chartwell North is this magical thatch home nestled beneath huge trees and very pretty gardens.
Down a winding paved driveway, to find the house, as if it's hidden in a forest... double story in design, and would suit either the empty nesters who now are lucky enough to enjoy a bit of space to themselves, as the living area is designed very much around elegant entertainment, or for those with older kids who are happy to live upstairs in their separate bedrooms with a study area and bathroom to share.
A country style kitchen with center island
with a separate large pantry and scullery. The kitchen leads through to a formal dining room with fireplace and bar area. From here, double doors that lead out to a sundeck, pool and garden.
The lounge is cozie with Bekker fireplace and high beams to open thatch with a dormer window letting in tons of light.
A loft with Juliet balcony overlooking the lounge that could be used as a reading room or study.
Downstairs is the large main bedroom with its own entrance to the garden and pool. A dressing room, unusual bathroom and enclosed, private courtyard.
The most magnificent Acacia tree stands proudly on the front lawn and towers above a beautiful indigenous garden.
Tucked away in the garden, an artist retreat, private and secluded.
There are 4 lockup garages, workshop and storeroom area, complete with 'mechanics pit'. An ideal man cave. If you're thinking of trying your hand at horse riding or keeping a cow or two, this building would make a very easy conversion into a barn or stables.
Staff accommodation for two and a large open field offering plenty of shade and grazing
