Elegant New Home on Secure Riverside Estate

SOLE MANDATE

A short drive through this beautifully treed, private security estate brings us to a delightful new home approached via pretty flowerbeds and a pathway of attractive herringbone pavers, a stone porch, and a three-quarter pane and wood door into an immaculate, spacious living area with light streaming in through many windows and two sets of stacking doors inviting the outdoors in - a trend so compatible with our South African climate.

The clean lines and uncluttered space give a sense that this home is designed with low maintenance in mind, and a relaxed lifestyle. Floors throughout are a natural stone colour, low maintenance screed. The white walls and high ceilings contrast nicely with natural oak wood shelves and cupboards. A stone fireplace with wood burner is set between the stacking doors and is the focal point of the comfortable lounge area. Practical venetian blinds dress the windows.

In the kitchen, a large island serves as a breakfast bar, with an integrated Siemens gas hob for cooking convenience. Worktops and counters line the back wall, with integrated twin Siemens ovens and a stand alone fridge / freezer. There is a walk in scullery with pantry / laundry leading out to a drying yard with sink. A sideboard with two wine coolers in the dining area makes serving meals and drinks an easy task.

A guest toilet is on the left of the entrance, beautifully decorated with a designer wall paper and stunning Quartz Carpet flooring.

A bespoke staircase with oak treads and iron handrail takes us up to the next level, where we find an open plan office and four charming bedrooms.

The main bedroom is delightful, with a balcony overlooking an expanse of mature trees. The wood plank floor and slanting roof supported by white beams adds to its charm. There is generous cupboard space. The open plan bathroom comprises a free standing bath, walk-in shower, twin basins and separate toilet, all set upon the beautiful Quartz Carpet stone flooring.

A further large bedroom is en suite with a shower bathroom and also has a private balcony. The other two bedrooms share a full bathroom and balcony. All bedrooms have fans and wood floors.

Returning downstairs, we find the open stacking doors invite us out to an entertainment area, where on the right is a shaded patio (repeating the motif of the porch with herringbone paving) where the scene is set for al fresco dining, with a braai, pizza oven and prep counter conveniently at hand, and space to seat 8 to 10 people. On the left is the pool deck for swimming and sunbathing. Two lawns with shade trees and shrubs complete this lovely walled garden designed and installed by an award-winning landscaper.

The oversized double garage with store room accommodates several bikes, boasting ample space and built in cupboards. The garage is also home to the 5KVA inverter system which runs the home during times of loadshedding.

Overall, the accent of this desirable property is one of elegant simplicity and easy living, where every last detail was meticulously thought of. Perfect for a family who enjoys nature and an active outdoor lifestyle.

The 22ha of pristine peninsula which is Twin Rivers nestles between the Keurbooms and the Bitou rivers – hence its name. With only a small portion of the land given over for building it is a paradise for small wild creatures, springbok grazing and otters playing in the river, and of course, abundant bird life. For those searching for peace in nature and out of doors living (with water sports on your doorstep) this lovely new home could be the perfect fit.

The vibrant small town of Plettenberg Bay is only four minutes away and will meet all your needs in terms of retail outlets, eateries, services, education, sport and social activities.
