Country Charm meets modern luxury in the Heart of Stanford
From the moment you step onto the manicured lawns and take in the sweeping mountain vistas along a charming country road, it’s clear this property is something truly special.
Set on 3,591sqm in Stanford’s protected heritage sector, this exceptional estate blends elegant Cape vernacular architecture with modern luxury. Comprising a beautifully restored main residence and a private guest cottage, both dwellings are nestled under mature trees, offering dappled shade, complete privacy, and a tranquil, farm-like lifestyle—right in the heart of the village.
A Gardener’s Paradise
The fertile soil is already home to a newly planted orchard of lemons, limes, and blood oranges, complemented by mature pecan trees. With plenty of room to expand, there’s ample opportunity to create your dream vegetable or flower garden.
What truly sets this property apart is its uninterrupted panoramic mountain views and the rare privilege of having direct river access—an unmatched lifestyle offering peace, beauty, and convenience.
The Main Residence
Enter through a deep, street-facing stoep into a classic country home infused with natural light. Inside, double-volume ceilings and expansive windows create a sense of openness and warmth.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly onto a covered patio, perfect for entertaining or enjoying warm sundowner evenings. The newly fitted bespoke kitchen features:
• 20mm Carrara Quartz countertops
• Franginite sink
• Samsung gas hob and electric oven
• Stylish cabinetry and a central island for effortless entertaining
The master suite is a true retreat—generously proportioned with a walk-in wardrobe, sitting area, ensuite bathroom, and a picture-perfect window framing garden and mountain views.
Two additional bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a guest toilet are located on the opposite wing. All the bedrooms are air-conditioned and have undercarpet heating pads. Upstairs, a flexible loft space offers potential for an art studio, home office, or guest room.
The Guest Cottage
Tucked discreetly behind a leafy tree near the patio lies a pristine, two-bedroom guest cottage. With a wooden deck and beautiful river and mountain views, it offers complete privacy from the main house. Featuring double-volume ceilings and open-plan living, it’s ideal for visitors or as a highly desirable rental unit.
Additional Features:
• 10kW solar array, 8kW Sunsynk inverter, and 10.2kW Revov battery
• Grid-tied system with SSEG approval to sell excess power
• CCTV system with remote access & armed response
• Samsung 24BTU aircon, 7.3kW EV charger, and fibre internet (up to 500Mbps)
• 8.3m x 3.6m pool with rooftop solar heating
• Elevated bird-viewing & sundowner platform overlooking river and mountains
• 1,600L rainwater tank with debris-filtering gutters
• Gas & electric water heaters (Geyserwise systems) in both homes
• Separate laundry, staff toilet, and air-conditioned office
• Additional loft storage above the office
A Rare Opportunity
This is the largest erf in Stanford, offering exceptional potential for home extensions, additional outbuildings, or bespoke garden design. Every detail of the property has been carefully curated, blending timeless country charm with modern, sustainable upgrades. More than just a home, it’s a rare lifestyle investment—delivering the very best of country living with contemporary convenience, all set within one of the Western Cape’s most desirable heritage villages.
