This well-designed home is set in the heart of Zimbali Estate, surrounded by indigenous forest and quiet natural views. Designed by Brian Johnson, known for the Gateway Theatre of Shopping, the Durban ICC, and high-quality residential work.
A standout feature of the home is the expansive open plan living area, with its double volume timber ceiling and extensive glazing all on one level.
The double volume living spaces feature vaulted ceilings lined with imported Pau Marfim Brazilian hardwood, adding warmth and scale to the interior. Large glass windows and folding sliding doors open most of the living areas fully to the outside, letting in natural light and creating a strong indoor-outdoor flow.
The main living areas, including the entrance, lounge, dining room, kitchen, pantry, store and laundry, are finished in 30mm imported Italian Travertine marble, cut to size and polished. The same Travertine is used in all bathrooms, showers, and the exterior shower areas. The kitchen courtyard, patios, and swimming pool surrounds are also finished in matching Travertine.
There are three spacious bedrooms. The main bedroom includes a generous en-suite bathroom, a walk in dressing area with built in cupboards, and a private outdoor courtyard with an open-air shower. The main bedroom, dressing room, and second bedroom are fitted with Nowens pure wool carpets. A separate granny, carer, or kids` flatlet is finished with porcelain tiles. Garages and exterior areas are also tiled in porcelain.
Rainwater is collected via a cast concrete, fibreglass lined gutter system around the entire roof and stored in a 30,000 litre underground fibreglass tank. Two submersible pumps supply garden irrigation throughout the property.
The home is built on piled foundations and includes a basement area beneath the house, allowing easy access to plumbing and electrical service lines. A central vacuum system runs throughout.
Located within Zimbali Estate, residents enjoy access to world class facilities including the golf course, clubhouse, beach access, walking trails, pools, and security. The home is a short drive from Ballito’s main shopping malls, restaurants, and schools, and is conveniently close to King Shaka International Airport, making travel easy without sacrificing privacy or tranquility.
