CHEZ GEMINI - an exclusive, NEW private, secure estate with only 5 homes on 2 acres. This magnificent thatched manor house, requiring minimal restoration, is one of the two original heritage buildings, with three new homes being built. Exceptional, guaranteed, views.
The authentic herringbone wooden flooring, lead windows, the farm-sized kitchen and the exposed beams in the lounge, are both alluring and comforting. A smaller winter lounge abuts the spacious living room, both with fireplaces. The grand dining room has French doors leading to the garden, as do all the rooms facing the grounds of the estate. The kitchen, with a large centre-island, has a laundry / scullery alcove.
The side door adjoins an entrance to the domestic rooms, which consist of a lounge / kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. These can easily be converted into a small guest cottage.
A luxurious bedroom en-suite, with its own lounge / office, en-suite bathroom and walk-in cupboard and a guest cloakroom, complete the lower level. The upper level consists of three very spacious bedrooms, with high ceilings and abundant light and two bathrooms, one en-suite and one shared.
An added feature is a small, one bedroom en-suite studio, snugly positioned next to the house. The panoramic views, stretching from the sea in False Bay and the Hottentots Holland mountains, to the Constantia valley beyond and below, are enjoyed from all aspects of this gracious home.
