At the end of a leafy driveway, this heart-stopping home waits with an open heart and strong, gentle arms for its family to find it.
You could be anywhere in the world behind this gate, and under this roof - in a farmhouse in Connecticut, in the suburbs of London, on the streets of Melbourne...It's both unique and, in the way successful homes have been built for hundreds of years, with the hearth at its heart.
From the moment one steps through the generous and gracious entrance, one is immediately inspired by the attention to detail of each meticulously appointed space, from the height of the ceiling that anoints it with grace and volume, to the windows that welcome in light and air and the whispered sounds of a garden that sings with life. The home wraps itself around you and assures you of pleasure and safe spaces.
This incredible house was built in 1903, so it's one of the first early 20th-century homes in this area of Johannesburg that was surrounded by orchards, producing fruit for all those who had made this corner of Africa their home. It still feels as if one is stepping back in time, when the world moved more sedately, and with more humour and less stress.
In line with farmhouse living, the veranda wraps around the house, providing shady places to enjoy al-fresco dining, or a quiet evening drink, with the house always in readiness and the gorgeously landscaped garden humming, and the pool quietly sparkling in this almost bucolic oasis.
It'll appeal to someone who has an appreciation of history or finely wrought old homes and a great sense of style, someone deeply creative and appreciative of the treasure of an almost secretive home life, where the craziness of the world can be shut out and ignored for a while, and time becomes a friend.
If you write or draw, paint, or do crafts, or have children who do, the studio or lounge upstairs is perfection. Elevated for inspiration and brilliant with light but still very much a part of the home, it's a marvelous space to access what's inside you and communicate or manifest it in any form you choose.
The cottage is another beautiful space, set aside for guests or family to live or stay without intruding on the workings of the home. While it overlooks the pool, it also offers the privacy and generosity that you might prefer for work-from-home activities. It's exactly what one would expect from a second dwelling on this property.
This is a home and garden laid out to welcome you home, to keep you safe, to create a platform for creativity and simple, old-fashioned pleasure...for big gatherings and great, sun-kissed, laughter-filled days ending with deep, quiet nights.
This is a home for someone in this world that it will be our absolute pleasure and honour to meet.
Call us if it sounds and looks like your dream home.
Make it happen.
