The right wing offers four full en-suite bedrooms with walk-in closets and private balcony access—the flexible fourth room is fitted with a built-in Murphy bed that easily functions as a second executive office or guest room. Positioned to the top left of the grounds, the fully self-contained, single-story second house adds immense versatility with its own double garage. Designed with an emphasis on seamless outdoor flow, every bedroom in this home features double glass doors opening directly onto a broad, fully covered patio. Inside, the residence offers a spacious open-plan lounge, dining area, and kitchen with a pantry, alongside a dedicated braai room with sliding doors, space to add in a bar and a guest toilet.
