| On the banks
of the Magaliesberg River and a mere 45 minutes from
Johannesburg and Pretoria is this fantastic Country Mansion set
within a fairytale landscape of ornamental dams well stocked with
fish. |

From the moment you drive
through the gatehouse portico onto this property you are immediately
aware that you have entered a magical water-world estate. This place
makes a statement in its opening scene and as you move through the
various acts you discover a stunning masterpiece fit for any quality
conscious new owner.
The manor house is framed by
large ornamental lakes with bridges and manicured lawn areas. The
paved driveway with post and rail fencing and lighting leads up to
the main entrance of the home. A welcoming entrance hall leads into
a cavernous triple volume great room with fireplace and leads to a
modern family kitchen and a generous dining room again with its own
fireplace. Complimenting the kitchen are a walk in pantry, a
scullery and a laundry room. |

The dormitory wing of
the home has two large bedrooms for your offspring and a
generous family bathroom on the ground floor as well as a third
large bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom. The upper floor is
entirely devoted to the master suite and comprises a large
bedroom with designer en-suite bathroom, a spacious patio deck
and a large room leading off it for a jacuzzi, sauna and/or gym.
Almost all the home is air conditioned and has a central vacuum
system. |

Through a connecting
door from the entrance hall one accesses the double garage with
ceramic tile floors and automated roll up doors. Adjacent to the
garage is a spacious air-conditioned hobby room or man-cave and
a self contained bedroom with a full bathroom which has
application as a home office with direct access to a central
courtyard. Perhaps the crowning jewel to this country manor is
the cavernous double-volume lapa with indoor braai and several
cozy seating areas and bow shaped picture windows looking out to
a private garden area which contains a feature swimming pool. |

|
A flower filled formal
garden area with a designer herb and vegetable section separates
the manor from a large hall/factory area and a complimentary
ablution block. This building has successfully hosted weddings
and conferences and has recently been fully equipped to provide
all the facilities for a water bottling business which
takes advantage of the quality of water (tested and certified)
from the 100 000l/hour
borehole. |

And a separate cottage with two
bedrooms for extra guests or that flightless older offspring!
Approximately 1ha of pastures are fully
irrigated making it realistic to add some fallow deer or an
antelope or two.
There are so many features to this special
property that you really need to check it out. With over 1000mē of
home and buildings the replacement cost would exceed R6 million. The
present builder/owner built it all and his family plans have
changed obliging him to re-locate to the Cape
so.................just R 3,850,000 secures this gem.
YES a bona fide BARGAIN! |
