Original homestead in a quiet area of Bergvliet.
Situated off a tranquil park above the Bergvliet Sports Association, this corner plot of almost 1000 squares has potential access from both sides of the property. It currently has a single garage and double car port with a driveway for more vehicles all securely behind a surrounding wall.
Through the garden trellis the front door is at the side of the house with a farm / country-like style. There is no pool but more than enough space to add one off the slate patio. From there the kitchen can be open planned to convert the space into a modern version restored to its former glory.
The formal lounge has a beautiful fireplace for cozy winters. Alongside is a dining area that is next to the kitchen, which has its original charm but in need of a make over. There is an informal lounge to be opened up or used as a home office with views of the garden and potential private courtyard.
The three bedrooms all have built in cupboards into the walls and as with the rest of the house has shuttered plantation blinds, laminated floors, white wooden frames and brass fittings reminiscent of a relaxed lifestyle. Leading off to the informal lounge area there is only one bathroom with separate guest toilet. There is space though through the back door to add or extend making a large expansive en-suite. All plumbing is in place to make it happen.
The domestic quarters with laundry and scullery with separate shower and toilet would be an ideal airbnb or income generating suburban beauty spa. By opening up the single garage one could build a double garage and go up to a double storey to appreciate the Constantiaberg views. An impressive front entrance with the existing hallway has a traditional feel that connects the rooms to each other, thus adding value to this understated and pretty house.
The back garden on this large erf can be left to one's imagination for entertaining and reflection. This stately home has been owned by one family built 74 years ago and looking for a visionary who can build on this legacy.
