R7 395 000 | 3 Bedroom House For Sale in Lakeside, Cape Town

Tucked away in the highly sought-after Klein Wassenaar pocket, this charming north-facing home is set on generous 700m² grounds and is one of the original farm cottages of the area, offering a wonderful combination of character, space and relaxed family living.

Perfectly positioned to make the most of its sunny north-facing aspect, the home enjoys beautiful natural light and excellent flow to a large covered veranda, wonderfully sheltered from the prevailing summer winds. Overlooking the beautifully landscaped, tree-lined gardens, swimming pool and fish pond and offering beautiful mountain views this is a truly special outdoor living space with plenty of room for both a dining table and outdoor lounge area. Fitted gas heaters and ceiling fans make it ideal for relaxing and entertaining throughout the year.

The very spacious lounge flows directly onto the veranda and features a large wood-burning closed-combustion fireplace and air conditioning, creating an inviting living space in both summer and winter. The separate spacious dining room is open plan to the kitchen, while upstairs a lovely study with character wooden floors, air conditioning and stunning mountain views provides an ideal work from home retreat.

At the heart of the home is a very spacious and well-appointed kitchen offering ample built-in cupboards and a large eat-at island, perfect for family and friends to gather around. A large freestanding stove with gas hob and extractor completes the kitchen, while doors provide convenient access to both the covered veranda and the back vegetable garden and garage. An adjoining laundry offers additional space for fridges as well as a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Accommodation comprises three very spacious bedrooms. The main bedroom features built-in cupboards, laminate flooring, air conditioning and an en-suite bathroom with shower, double vanity, heated towel rail, wall heater and automated extractor. The sunny second bedroom is also generously proportioned with built-in cupboards and laminate flooring, while the third bedroom is situated upstairs and features built-in cupboards and beautiful character wooden strip floors. A full family bathroom offers a freestanding bath, basin and toilet, while both bathrooms benefit from automated extractor systems.

The beautiful well established garden is one of the property's real highlights, creating a peaceful private oasis filled with mature trees and abundant birdlife, with the swimming pool, fish pond and beautiful mountain backdrop adding to the relaxed atmosphere. A well point feeds a storage tank and booster pump linked to the automated irrigation system, making maintaining the gardens that much easier.

Further features include a tandem automated garage, garden shed, alarm system and an energy-efficient heat pump connected to the geyser.

Klein Wassenaar itself is a wonderful family-friendly neighbourhood, with lovely local parks and children's play areas providing great spaces for families, walking and exercising dogs.
