A grand, historic mansion.Transformed with French-flair. Becomes an inspired, "Vogue Living" guesthouse retreat.
Arriving at the front gates of this riverfront property, you can`t begin to imagine what you`re about to experience. That is why it has to be viewed.
A winding driveway through lush exquisitely manicured, well-established gardens brings you to a quietly imposing front door.
Inside you quickly understand why this home has inspired features in numerous, trend-leading international interior and lifestyle magazines and television shows. The owner has put his own modern designer signature
on every aspect of this classic late 19th century villa, and made it his own. The reception and main living areas feature original wooden floors, fireplace, ceilings and windows, brought into the present with artfully eclectic furnishings, paintings, murals and artefacts. Each of the rooms is individually themed, each with its own special narrative.
A dramatic passageway connects all the rooms in the house, leading you to a large wooden door that opens onto a long sweeping, river-fronting stoep, overlooking the most exotic, lush African garden, featuring trees that have been there as long as the home. A grand staircase then takes to the exquisite large pool lounging area, reminiscent of what you may have experienced at the grand hotels of the past.
This is oasis country living at its very best. A masterpiece of style.
This is where you want to be, as the new West Coast `boom` starts to take shape. With a new major port on its way in Saldanha Bay. Booming luxury development in nearby Langebaan and Paternoster. Close to some world class eateries and wineries. An hour and a bit from Cape Town. And our international airports hub.
