5 Bedroom House for sale in Victorskloof

Description

There are few positions in Hout Bay that capture the landscape quite like this. Set high in Victorskloof on an expansive 2,835m² erf, this freestanding home looks out across Hout Bay towards Chapman’s Peak and Kommetjie, while the mountains rise immediately behind it. The result is a home that feels connected to nature in almost every direction, yet remains only minutes from the village, beaches, schools and everything that makes this part of Cape Town such a special place to live. Designed by a Swiss architect, the main house offers more than 400m² under roof and combines traditional warmth with considered modern touches. Light, views and the surrounding landscape were clearly central to the design, with the living spaces positioned to make the most of the outlook across the bay. The cottage offers a further 177sqm which is fully contained with an additional 2... There are few positions in Hout Bay that capture the landscape quite like this. Set high in Victorskloof on an expansive 2,835m² erf, this freestanding home looks out across Hout Bay towards Chapman’s Peak and Kommetjie, while the mountains rise immediately behind it. The result is a home that feels connected to nature in almost every direction, yet remains only minutes from the village, beaches, schools and everything that makes this part of Cape Town such a special place to live. Designed by a Swiss architect, the main house offers more than 400m² under roof and combines traditional warmth with considered modern touches. Light, views and the surrounding landscape were clearly central to the design, with the living spaces positioned to make the most of the outlook across the bay. The cottage offers a further 177sqm which is fully contained with an additional 2 bedrooms. The main house is arranged over two levels. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including an en-suite main bedroom, with the remaining two bedrooms sharing a family bathroom. The elevated position really comes into its own on this level, with views unfolding in virtually every direction. Hout Bay, Chapman’s Peak and the coastline dominate the outlook in front, while mountain views frame the home from behind. Windows and spaces have been thoughtfully positioned to capture natural light and make excellent use of the outlook on all sides, giving the entire upper level an open, spacious feel and a constant connection to the surrounding landscape. Downstairs, the kitchen flows into the dining area and through to the lounge, followed by an additional room that works equally well as a relaxed TV lounge, study or creative workspace. Throughout these spaces, the view remains the constant backdrop. A large scullery leads directly into the double garage, with plenty of additional off street parking available. Alongside the main house is a separate pool house with a full bathroom. Currently used as an en-suite (teen) bedroom, it could just as easily become an entertainment room, guest suite, gym or relaxed poolside space. Adding another dimension to the property is a fully self-contained 177sqm two bedroom cottage with its own parking. Currently tenanted and generating substantial additional income, it offers genuine flexibility as an income producing asset, accommodation for extended family or an independent guest cottage. The established garden is supported by a borehole, water storage tanks and automated irrigation, while a substantial solar installation reduces reliance on the grid. The home also features an unusual and highly efficient water based ceiling heating system, circulating warmth from above during the colder months and working alongside a wood burning combustion fireplace to create a comfortable winter environment. But it is really the location and lifestyle that define this property. Victorskloof occupies that rare space between Hout Bay and Constantia, close enough to the village for an easy morning coffee or dinner out, but elevated and removed enough to feel distinctly rural. Horses and equestrian properties form part of the wider landscape, while mountain trails, cycling and mountain biking routes are virtually on the doorstep. Weekends can move effortlessly between hiking in the mountains, horse riding, cycling, surfing or paddling, followed by an afternoon at the beach or a drive into the Constantia Winelands. Hout Bay Beach and harbour are minutes away, with Llandudno, Camps Bay and the Constantia wine route all within easy reach. In the other direction, the iconic Chapman’s Peak Drive opens the way to Noordhoek and its magnificent beach, as well as the wider Cape Peninsula. For families, the location offers convenient access to the International School of Hout Bay as well as a selection of highly regarded schools in Constantia, Llandudno and Camps Bay. This is a home for someone who wants space without isolation, nature without sacrificing convenience, and a lifestyle that can move easily between mountains, horses, trails, beaches, vineyards and the city. And through it all, there is that view. Read full description + window.loader.addCallback((renderComponent) => renderComponent({"name":"ReadMore","props":"#-1490120261","type":"c"}));
