Two brand-new 4-bedroom homes with private pools, Sandalwood Estate

Two brand-new homes are now available side by side in Sandalwood Estate. It is one of Sandown`s most sought-after secure family estates on Cape Town`s West Coast. Both homes follow the same approved design, and each has its own private swimming pool included in the price.

Each modern double-storey home sits on a 250 m2 erf and offers 230 m2 under roof. The design uses crisp white and charcoal plaster, horizontal cladding and black aluminium frames.

Downstairs the entrance opens into light, open-plan living and dining. The kitchen has a large island, pendant lighting and a separate scullery with pantry. The living area flows into a braai room and out to a pergola-covered patio, the pool and its paved surround. A ground-floor guest bedroom with its own bathroom suits visiting family or a home office.

Upstairs the main bedroom has a walk-in closet and an en-suite. Two further bedrooms share a family bathroom with a freestanding bath, and a study desk sits on the landing.

A double garage and a brick-paved driveway complete the home.

Finishes you can see. A completed show unit built to this standard has white worktops, timber-look island cladding, matt-black taps and fittings, built-in cupboards and marble-look tiled bathrooms.

Make it your own. Add optional upgrades before construction starts. You can choose an integrated kitchen with Smeg appliances (R150,000), a rooftop solar system (R80,000) or an inverter with battery backup (R50,000). Upgrade prices are estimates and are subject to the builder`s written confirmation.

Two ways to buy: plot and plan, where you own the land from transfer and your bond pays the builder in stages, or turnkey, where you pay on transfer of the finished home.

Both homes are on a quiet internal street, one block from Woodpecker Park with its play areas and walking paths. They are close to Parklands College, Curro Sandown, Table Bay Mall, Sandown Retail Crossing and the Blouberg beaches, with easy access to the R27 and N7.
