A Sanctuary to Restore Your Soul
The primary residence is situated on an elevated position and features three spacious bedrooms, each equipped with en-suite bathrooms and stacker doors that open onto a wraparound patio offering sweeping vistas of seven surrounding mountain ranges.
Inside, the open-plan living space boasts double-volume ceilings, a central fireplace, and a well-integrated flow between the lounge, dining, and kitchen areas. The kitchen showcases solid rosewood cabinetry for functional aesthetics, complemented by a scullery and walk-in pantry for daily convenience.
A dedicated TV room with a freestanding fireplace serves as a comfortable retreat, while the adjacent gym area leads outdoors to a private rear patio. Every finish has been meticulously selected, from Jerusalem stone tiles to handcrafted copper taps and exposed piping, introducing subtle industrial elements.
The master suite provides a serene oasis, featuring a freestanding stone bath, underfloor heating, and direct access to the patio.
Located beneath the main house are several creative workspaces: a generous artist’s studio (formerly a six-car garage), a separate photographic studio, a washroom housing the solar system, and a storage room. An adjoining flatlet with a private garden offers accommodation suitable for guests or rental purposes.
Above the main home, a wooden cottage nestles into the hillside. Currently designated as staff accommodation, it includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a welcoming open-plan living area.
The expansive grounds include fruit trees, vegetable patches, a tunnel greenhouse, and abundant native fynbos landscaping. Five large water tanks store filtered spring water, ensuring reliable supply for self-sustainability.
Eden represents more than a property; it is an invitation to reconnect with nature, creativity, and personal well-being.
