A Garden Sanctuary in the Heart of Hillcrest

Set in a quiet and beautifully maintained estate in central Hillcrest, this one-of-a-kind home offers a rare sense of peace and character. From the moment one steps inside, it’s clear this is not just a house but a home shaped by warmth, intention, and everyday living.

The layout seamlessly blends convenience and comfort. The double garage provides direct access into a thoughtfully renovated kitchen—an ideal feature that simplifies daily life. This well-considered connection enhances practicality while preserving the home’s warm and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen features modern white cabinetry, black granite counters, and vintage-style handles. A gloss-finish stone backsplash adds a polished, country-inspired touch, while a sleek fixed island defines the kitchen zone and connects effortlessly with the adjacent open-plan dining and lounge areas.

The living space opens easily to the outdoors. Natural light pours in through oversized windows and French doors, softening the edges of everyday life and drawing focus to the heart of the home. A fireplace anchors the formal lounge, creating ambience and warmth. Wood-look vinyl flooring throughout the lower level enhances the natural flow of the home with a cohesive and welcoming feel.

A spacious downstairs bedroom offers peaceful garden views through large windows. Floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and woven pendant lights introduce an organic, textural quality, allowing the room to feel both grounded and luxurious. Its private bathroom includes a bath, walk-in shower, double vanity, and a large mirror framed by ample cabinetry. A separate guest bathroom nearby ensures convenience without compromising privacy.

Upstairs, a generous second lounge creates a multifunctional space ideal for a home office, reading nook, or TV area. It overlooks the lower level, adding architectural interest and a sense of volume. The upstairs main bedroom features custom-built cabinetry and a large low-set window that fills the space with natural light. Its en-suite bathroom includes a double shower, a large bath, and a built-in double vanity. A third upstairs bedroom, finished with clean, modern cabinetry and a built-in study nook, completes the accommodation.

The thatch and stone elements are undeniably part of the home’s visual language, bringing a grounded, lodge-style warmth that gives the property its distinctive charm. Rather than overpowering the space, these features work in harmony with the home’s more contemporary renovations, creating a balance between rustic character and modern ease. The result is a space that feels both elevated and down-to-earth, where texture, tone, and natural materials come together in a truly inviting atmosphere.

The garden is the soul of the home. Lush and expansive, it feels like a natural extension of the living space, offering corners to rest, gather, and play. From the spacious veranda to the secluded braai area, every part of the garden encourages slowing down and enjoying the moment. Whether it’s quiet morning coffee, weekend braais, or children swinging beneath the trees, this garden holds life beautifully.

Set on a gentle slope with level ground surrounding the home itself. The property is within walking distance of Hillcrest High School and offers easy access to key amenities while still feeling tucked away from the bustle.

This property speaks to families in search of something truly special: a home that combines personality and functionality, a place where memories can be made, and where everyday living feels beautifully grounded.
