A home for all seasons

Set on an estate, this home exudes calm and comfort

The owner loves the tranquillity of this Winelands estate, so the home has been designed to make the most of the stunning mountain views and natural beauty. There is also a strong sense of community and the convenience of having a variety of wonderful places on our doorstep which adds to the appeal, she says.

This is a family that loves to socialise, so it was important for the home to have an easy flow. We enjoy entertaining, and this house certainly gives us those options, whether indoors or outside. The courtyards provide ample shelter from the weather throughout the year.

An interesting feature of this home is the use of space and the separation of the house into four sections. As we wanted to downsize, we felt we would achieve a sense of space by having separate interlinking pods, and this has definitely been the case, says the owner.
