5 Bedroom House For Sale in Waterkloof
Welcome to a truly remarkable 5-bedroom house for sale in Waterkloof. This iconic property, originally designed by renowned architect John van de Werke, has been meticulously built and recently upgraded by Mellet & Human Architects to meet the standards of modern family living. The architects paid homage to the house's history and original design while incorporating modern additions that beautifully contrast with the existing structure. Many original architectural elements, such as doors, windows, and wrought iron steel pergolas, have been reused in the design, seamlessly blending the old with the new.
The house boasts an array of impressive features, including a pavilion overlooking the pool and garden, a professionally landscaped garden with a borehole and automated irrigation system, and a lower ground floor that offers space for a gymnasium, home theatre, or games room. The main living areas on the ground floor have been refurbished to their former glory, with exceptional craftsmanship evident in the restored kiaat doors, window frames, wood panelling, beams, and shelving. The kitchen has been extended, with glass sliding doors leading to a breakfast patio and a terraced vegetable garden.
On the first floor, the architects have extended the existing three bedrooms to create five en-suite bedrooms. The extensions are expressed externally as modern glass boxes, allowing abundant natural light and stunning views. The house also features electrically operated skylights, adding to the bright and airy atmosphere. With a total area of 914 square meters, this landmark residence has been restored and rejuvenated, offering a new lease on life that perfectly blends history with modern luxury.
The property's accommodation and amenities include a grand entrance foyer, a library with original wood panelling and fireplace, a lounge and dining room with unique concrete and brick fireplace, an extended kitchen with high-end finishes, a scullery and laundry, a double garage, an entertainment and pool pavilion, landscaped gardens, and much more. The first floor offers additional living space, including a TV lounge with automated skylights, a study area with a kitchenette, and five beautifully appointed bedrooms.
