The journey of Worlds End began with a family deeply rooted in the history of the Elgin Valley. The owners’ grandfather arrived from Scotland in 1952 and established a farm along the banks of the Palmiet River, situated within a unique 40-hectare fynbos conservation area. Over decades, the farm evolved into a prosperous apple and pear operation, exporting fruit worldwide. In 2008, the family sold part of the farm but retained 8 hectares of pristine land.

The decision to build a new home on this extraordinary piece of paradise was inspired by the owners’ desire for an ultra modern, yet intimate, sanctuary. They sought an architect who could capture the essence of the land and incorporate it into a home which would enhance their connection with nature.

The architect, Barry Gould, studied the surroundings and designed an award-winning masterpiece that allows every corner of the home to frame the natural beauty outside.

Worlds End is a property where nature and modern living seamlessly blend in perfect harmony.

The home’s design integrates expansive picture windows and floor-to-ceiling glass doors, offering panoramic views of the Springbok dancing over the fields, the African landscape, winding Palmiet River and surrounding conservancy.

The result is an indoor-outdoor flow that makes the home feel like an extension of the land itself.

The living spaces exude a sense of openness, with an ergonomic kitchen featuring integrated appliances and elbow-height counters, perfect for both intimate meals and large gatherings. A separate scullery, wine cellar and cold storage ensure every detail is accounted for, making the home an entertainer’s delight.

The open-plan living areas offer warmth and intimacy when only the family is at home and expansiveness when hosting guests.

One of the bedroom suite’s features a separate entrance and kitchenette, ideal for private guests or a live-in staff member.

In addition, the home’s office space, built above a workshop / storage space complete with glass doors, could easily be converted into another self-contained apartment.

Living here means enjoying modern conveniences such as aqua-floor heating, smart home features and renewable energy systems. The home is fully equipped with solar panels, wind turbines and abundant water supplies - including from a spring, ensuring that it will meet your every need.

Security is paramount, with the property fully fenced and access controlled.
