Private Family Home in One of Bryanston's Most Sought-After Enclosures
Call to book your viewing on Saturday and Sunday between 11 am - 5 pm
Six bedrooms | Five bathrooms (four en-suite) | Guest cloakroom | Cottage or staff quarters
Rezoned to allow a second dwelling
Set on a quiet, gated section of Cambridge Road just inside the Devonshire Park enclosure, and less than a minute's walk from Riverside Shopping Centre, this six-bedroom family home offers privacy, space and room to entertain, surrounded by a mature, established garden.
Living and Entertaining
A very large lounge on the north-western side of the house has a gas fireplace and a sloping ceiling of exposed original rafters. The dining room, a large entrance hall with a new staircase, and a small TV room face north, and a study off the lounge catches the afternoon sun. Aluminium stacking doors from the dining room and entrance hall open onto a large covered patio and braai area, double-volume in part, with a glazed skylight above. The patio leads out to the pool and garden, and the braai cabinetry was made from the timber of the house's original staircase.
The Kitchen
The kitchen was rebuilt from scratch, with Caesarstone tops and two islands: a large central island with a gas hob and prep sink, and a second with a built-in flat-top fryer. It also has an extra-wide oven, a second oven, built-in wine storage and generous cupboard space, and opens through to the dining room and entrance hall. A separate laundry is just off the entrance hall.
The Main Suite
Upstairs, past a gallery landing lined with built-in bookshelves, a private 90m² suite has its own living area with a kitchenette, and a mirrored sliding door through to the bedroom, which has a gas fireplace, air-conditioning and skylights. The bathroom and dressing area form one large, open room, with twin rain showers, a spa bath for two beneath a window, a double vanity, and open shelving and hanging space. A covered hardwood deck with a frameless glass balustrade looks out over the pool and garden.
Downstairs Bedrooms
The bedroom wing is arranged around a double-volume atrium lit by a skylight. The second main bedroom has a full en-suite bathroom with a large wet room and rain shower. Two further bedrooms are en-suite, and two share a full bathroom, with a guest cloakroom and a large linen cupboard close by.
The Garden
Rolling lawns, mature trees and plants, and an elevated succulent terrace surround the house. A waterfall feeds three rivulets that run down to a koi and goldfish pond, between islands planted with aloes and succulents and a dead tree hung with air plants. The pond is fenced for the safety of young children, and a strong borehole feeds the pool and pond.
Garaging, Parking and Staff Suite
A sweeping driveway leads to an extra-length triple garage, currently used for a home business, with three carports in front and ample parking on the front lawn. The cottage, or staff quarters, adjoins the laundry and has its own outside entrance, two rooms, a kitchenette and a shower room, with space to extend.
Renovated Where It Matters
The owners rebuilt the kitchen, moved the front door to make way for the new staircase, fitted the stacking doors, turned the upstairs gym into the main suite, added the downstairs wet room, installed the solar heating and exposed the lounge rafters. The rest of the bedroom wing is largely original, including the carpets, two of the bathrooms and the terracotta tiles in the lounge and atrium, leaving room for a new owner to make it their own.
Also of Note
- Solar heating: rooftop collectors warm the walls of the two largest downstairs bedrooms in winter and are designed to heat the pool in summer, controlled from any computer in the house
- Air-conditioning in the main suite, the two largest downstairs bedrooms and one further bedroom
- Fibre and 25 network points, well suited to working from home
- Porcelain tiles through the kitchen, dining room and entrance hall
- Title conditions that barred subdivision have been removed
- CAP Security patrols with a dedicated vehicle 24/7; guard at the booms; every vehicle photographed on entry
- Riverside Shopping Centre about 60m away through a pedestrian gate, locked at night
- Braamfontein Spruit trail and Bryanston parkrun just across The River Road
- Little Ashford Preschool a few hundred metres away; Bryanston Primary, Bryanston High, Michael Mount, Brescia House, St Stithians College, Redhill and Crawford Bryanston nearby.
This property offers a rare combination of space, privacy and a prized address, with the most important upgrades already in place.
