| Substantial family home in an exclusive enclave of glorious Hout Bay |
This enchanting home on a large erf has it all - whether you are looking to raise a family and pets in an ideal location (there is even a manège for your pony), subdivide in the future to recoup costs, work from home, or just spread out and enjoy all the space and panoramic views of the sea, valley and mountains that this captivating property provides.
A generous sized home with a rustic, semi-rural feel, very much in keeping with this well treed and peaceful part of Hout Bay valley. If you have horses, then it is ready to move into - but if equestrianism isn't on your list of hobbies, then the stables could provide a perfect re-purposing opportunity, as extra accommodation for letting, or as a craft workshop or other work from home space.
As it is, the house has 5 bedrooms and an office/store room, or it could be configured as 4 bedrooms plus a flatlet. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor entertaining rooms on both sides of the house, a swimming pool, beautiful and majestic mature trees and plenty of scope to keep animals. A wonderful place to live and a delight for children, with all the outdoor play space and hide & seek potential.
A 5kw inverter means that there is extra independent power available and there is also a rainwater harvesting system so that your own potable water is on tap, if needed. One of the bathroom geysers runs on solar power.
There is ample parking, both covered and uncovered.
The subdivision potential is evident and we can give preliminary advice on due process and likely timeframe, as well as discuss potential intrinsic value.
The property is situated only 5 mins drive from the nearest shops and restaurants, 7 minutes from the beaches of Hout Bay and Llandudno, 10 minutes to Chapman's Peak, 16 minutes to Camps Bay on the coastal road and 25 minutes to Cape Town city centre. You will be only 8 minutes away from Constantia and its wine route and a further 10 minutes to the main southern suburbs of Newlands and Claremont. Cape Town International airport is a mere 40 minutes drive.
Hout Bay's varied amenities include good schools, excellent medical practitioners, great shops, delis and restaurants (including one of the top 5 restaurants in Africa); surfing and sailing schools; several riding stables; squash and tennis courts; running and cycling clubs galore - and more hiking routes than a pair of legs could manage in a month.
