Description
Tucked away in the heart of the much-sought-after Table View Winelands suburb, is this one-of-a-kind characterful family home in Cognac Road. The location is so quiet you’d scarcely think anyone else lives in the road since, because the road in itself doesn’t lead anywhere, there’s no through traffic and thus the only vehicle activity is that of people who are fortunate enough to live there!
If glitz and glamour and chrome and sparkle are your thing – this probably won’t be for you! – but if descriptors such as “homely”, “charming”, “quirky”, “individualistic” and “non-conformist” appeal to you – then read on - because this home has lots of all of the above! …
The street appeal of this wonderfully cottage-style home is immediately apparent upon arrival; with a decades old mature Brazilian Pepper Tree dominating the front facade of the property – to the extent that in the 40 odd years of this property’s existence, not one of the previous owners has chosen to wall in the front garden! – although it can of course be done, if so required.
This is a spacious home of a full 144 sq m under roof, on a generous 600 sq m erf. The lounge/dining area is cavernous and even has a dedicated “quiet” area for the jigsaw enthusiast! - with a discrete passageway leading to the accommodation wing which consists of 3 good-sized bedrooms, which all have wood laminate flooring and built-in cupboards; the master bedroom having its own air conditioner and a recently renovated en-suite bathroom consisting of shower, basin and loo. The other 2 bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom consisting of bath, basin and loo.
Previous owners of this delightful home had the bright idea of adding on an entirely new and massive kitchen to the layout with high, high exposed ceilings, Caesar stone counter tops, a huge breakfast table and a corner fireplace – recognizing that, as in most family homes, it’s the kitchen where friends and family tend to gather and hence ensuring to provide enough space for super-sized get-togethers!
The kitchen and the lounge both lead out through sliding aluminum doors onto the delightful back garden where, in perfectly protected privacy, the owners can enjoy their unique rock pool with its integrated water feature, huge boulders and a delightful deck around the perimeter where you’ll also find the built-in braai. The rest of the garden is laid to grass, beds, pots, trees and bushes.
The property offers a single garage that can readily be extended into a double by incorporating the designated parking bay alongside it. Extras include burglar bars and security gates throughout and an alarm system.
So there you have it, a truly unique family home in a delightfully secure and private location that’s going to be snapped up real soon! – so please don’t delay in calling me to book your appointment to view - before someone beats you to it! …
