Property Details
This unique designer home gives a grandeur statement and brings curiosity with its natural wood and steel clad welcome. First impressions of the interior architectural features take your breath away in every direction you look! An artful blend of wood, glass, concrete and steel creates a unique home that maximises every part of the stand, while maintaining almost complete privacy.
Designed by Studious Architects, the focal point at the entrance to the home is the silo - a triple volume space that showcases a wine cellar, library, and art gallery.
A spectacular spiral staircase creates a structural art-piece with floating solid white oak treads, reaching up to the very large studio with sizeable balcony with views across the Waterfall Estate. Quiet and situated up in the treetops, this space works extremely well as an office or studio, or has been prepared to allow conversion to a 5th Bedroom.
The home is built with four parallel wings that branch off from the main north-south corridor, each separated by sections of lush garden that link the indoors and outdoors. The use of top-lit windows, angled to allow soft natural light but maximum privacy, exposed I-beams and full-length glass windows and doors creates an industrial, yet homely space that feels like a boutique hotel. Bespoke light fittings, designer wallpaper and art gallery walls serve to enhance the artistic beauty of this home. With over 40 trees in the garden, the forest feel is cool and calming, providing garden spaces that flows off all areas that are low maintenance yet very present. The two central parallel wings open up into one immense hybrid indoor | outdoor space bringing together the home to reflect a one-of-a-kind, spectacular designer home.
The kitchen is a sleek affair, with white and grey stone and concrete counters, and built-in SMEG appliances. The many cupboards lie flush with the walls, allowing a clean and uncluttered look. Stackable fold-away doors open up to a neatly paved courtyard area with large trees, linking to the TV lounge.
A large functional separate scullery accesses a garage that houses three cars, as well as a door that opens to the paved back-yard area, with a pump station neatly housing the heat pump that powers the geysers and reticulated underfloor heating and pool pump.
The dining room and formal lounge, with extra-long custom made infinity fireplace, open to a decked area that faces the entertainment space. Featuring a fitted bar with gas grill and extractor fan, this room offers plenty of space for lavish entertaining. The TV Lounge and kids Study is ideally central and can be access from the Kitchen or entertainment space, or as little, as desired, thanks to the sliding stacker doors on three sides. The solar-heated 15m lap pool, running east to west under the main corridor, is decidedly different, enhanced by the towering tree mural set into the adjacent wall and opening stacker doors. There's something around every corner that takes your breath away...
A private guest suite leads off the silo, giving guests their own private space with a floating glass box opening up into a green oasis and antique trough water feature, bringing tranquillity and feeling of being at a boutique spa.
The 4th wing is dedicated to 2 large mirror-image en-suite bedrooms and the master suite, both downstairs rooms have spacious designer bathrooms, each opens up with slider doors to a deck leading onto a grassed section of the garden with drop-in trampoline. The grand master suite is found above by following the floating concrete stairway with unique lighting feature from above. This area spans the full width of the home and includes the bedroom and relaxing lounge, with an infinity fireplace, as well as enormous dressing room and luxurious bathroom. Every detail of the bedrooms, from the wooden flooring to wardrobes, doors and windows, work together to create an opulent, calming retreat.
