Property Details
Chartwell Country Estates - I challenge anyone who is privileged enough to live in the North of Johannesburg, to find me an area, where country living and being able to hide from the undulating excitement of the metropolis, can come together as one? Where modern living and horse riding can be enjoyed and where we can ride to Woolworths, without crossing a single major road?
This beautiful home can offer you all the fancies of a new modern home in an estate in the north of Johannesburg, for half the price and more than twice the space. You're in charge of your own security, therefore, you're not living in a 'fool's paradise' thinking you're secure, when in fact the neighbor has rented his mansion to a bunch of drug dealers and thugs.
Situated on a beautiful northerly slope, with views across the valley. The entire property is well secured with electric gates, fencing, walled on 2 sides and cameras en mass.
Modern in design with approx. 800 sq m under roof, all the mod-cons - built-in vacuum system, internal speakers and Control 4 home automation system. 30 Hik-Vision NVR cameras throughout.
High open ceilings with open beams, the lounge with 'Hydrofire' fireplace, dining and kitchen are open plan - doors that stack back to allow the inside, outside onto a large covered verandah.
This home is geared for kids, so there is a large sand pit and secured pool area.
A pajama lounge with 'Hydrofire' fireplace and hard wood floors - cozy in winter.
A guest room with en-suite bathroom, 2 large kiddie bedrooms, with Jack and Jill full bathroom both leading out to a covered veranda and garden. An additional kiddies room with en-suite bathroom, currently used as a playroom.
The main bedroom with fireplace has a dressing room and large en-suite bathroom, with steam shower, and out door shower area.
To one side, a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom cottage, either great as an office, or good for the 'horror in laws' or wayward teenagers ;-) Totally self sufficient and the current gym could double up as a garage.
There are three boreholes on the property. The best sweet water, straight out the ground.
For 'the man about town' there is a workshop or barn - good for the motor enthusiast. Maybe a horse barn or even place for chickens and goats?
A staff room with en-suite bathroom. Triple garage with automatic doors and a large laundry area.
+-33Kva auto start generator,
