This phenomenal house offers a symphony of glass, superb woodwork and stylish modern fittings. Situated on the renowned Erinvale Golf Estate in Somerset West, the property has exceptional views over a dam, which teems with wildlife in the foreground and majestic rolling hills of vineyards and mountains which form the backdrop. The house offers ample accommodation which is built in a Balinese style spread over two wings, creating a private central courtyard with entertainment terrace and swimming pool.
The main wing is light and spacious due to the vaulted ceilings, and impressive glass walls which run the length of the open plan living room, dining room and ultra-modern kitchen. The notable main suite also benefits from these views which are enhanced by the private balcony. This wing also has a large study/office which would make the property an ideal work from home.
The other adjoining wing has a further two spacious guest suites and a large family room/ billiard room.
This property is one of the finest and most desirable homes in Erinvale.
Erinvale Golf Estate is not only one of the first residential golf developments in South Africa, conceived back in 1990, but also one of the most exclusive and sought after golf estates in Southern Africa. The combination of luxury housing and the Gary Player designed 18 hole golf course, make this a lifestyle estate of a high calibre. The golf course hosted the World Cup (1996) and two SA Open Championships.
The Estate is now fully developed and matured, offering exceptional golf on the manicured greens with beautiful surroundings. The Estate is 150ha in extent, of which 100ha is taken up by the golf course and private open space, where one really is at harmony with nature.
Set in the Cape village of Somerset West, entrance to the wine route, the Estate is gently wrapped between the Indian Ocean waters and sandy beaches of False Bay and the Helderberg and Hottentots Holland mountain ranges, turned pink by majestic sunsets. It lies also between wine estates and a nature reserve of indigenous Cape "fynbos" flora, with Bontebok, Springbok and 160 species of bird life.
Beyond the fairways are activities, clubs, drives and places of interest for all. In addition, expert medi-care, exceptional schooling, modern-mall shopping and just a 20 minute drive to Cape Town's international airport.
