House for sale
Elevated mountainside retreat in Constantia with sweeping valley-to-coast views, Tudor charm, mountain-spring water rights and mature gardens — includes six bedrooms, three bathrooms and a double garage.
Positioned high on the mountainside in Constantia, Witteboomen is an authentic English Tudor-style home offering an exceptional sense of privacy and sweeping, elevated views. Looking across the verdant Constantia Valley, the vistas extend over the coastline all the way to Muizenberg and Silvermine.
Set within over 4,000 m2 of established, low-maintenance grounds, this property masterfully balances a forest-like country retreat with the ease of urban convenience.
Spanning 495 m2 under-roof, the main residence showcases timeless heritage architecture, defined by solid wood beams, lead glass windows, and real wooden floors. A curved wooden staircase leads up from the ground level, connecting the beautifully proportioned living spaces. The layout includes a generous reception area, enhanced by an original fireplace, creating warmth for formal hosting or quiet family relaxation.
The kitchen is crafted with real wood finishes, matching wooden countertops, an integrated fridge and freezer and dedicated pantry cupboards, supported by a scullery and laundry area.
The primary accommodation provides six bedrooms, three bathrooms and additional staff accommodation.
Positioned above the double garage is a self-contained flatlet, perfect for guests, extended family, or a dedicated remote workspace. Outside, the mountainside gardens feature mature trees and meandering pathways, creating a natural playground.
Practical features include a shared driveway that enhances security, ample open parking alongside the double garage and highly valuable water usage rights to a mountain spring. Spring water supplies both the home and garden.
Please note: A subdivision application is currently in progress and will be completed simultaneously with or prior to transfer (offers will be subject to this finalisation), resulting in a standalone erf of approximately 4,066 m2. Additionally, as the property has been extended over time, it may not retain strict heritage restrictions, allowing standard municipal processes for future renovations or updates.
More than a home, this is a property with a unique story waiting for its next chapter to be lived.
