5 Bed House in Parktown North

OUTSTANDING CORPORATE RENTAL

Introducing a home of unrivalled distinction. Exceptionally spacious, sophisticatedly modern, infused with natural light and with undeniably-exquisite features and finishes. This north-facing, freestanding home, with cluster appeal, reflects utilitarian and natural New York-style architecture, a masterpiece of design and functionality, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in a prestigious location.

The striking entrance, overseen by a magnificent light feature, visually captivates, and introduces a blend of the minimalist ambiance, characterised by simplicity and clean lines, and comfort of the home. High ceilings, glass and exposed brick walls enhance the layout of the spacious open-plan living area. Creating seamless indoor-outdoor integration, stacker doors open across the width of the living area, connecting with the meticulous garden, the patio for extended entertaining, and heated pool.

The comfortable sitting-room includes a wood-burning fireplace which adds warmth to the whole living area. Conducive to a superbly social atmosphere, the dining area is adjacent to a fabulous designer kitchen, the centre of culinary creativity, with wooden countertops and solid wood cabinets in an alluring hue of grey dominated by a vast central island with bar seating for casual conversations and entertaining. A freestanding Smeg stove with five-ring gas hob (Egoli gas), electric oven, conveniently-separate scullery with space for three appliances, and walk-in pantry complement the kitchen space.

Downstairs, a secluded en suite bedroom is perfect as a guest bedroom, quiet work-from-home space, or study with access via stacker doors to the sun-drenched garden.

The inviting floating staircase leads up past a wonderful balance of exposed brick and large windows to the upstairs bedroom wings. Stylish and very spacious, with a high truss ceiling, the main bedroom includes stacker doors that open onto a private balcony providing views of the garden, and remotely-operated blinds. An expansive, luxurious full en suite bathroom and a large adjacent dressing area with wall-to-wall built-in-cupboards complete this exquisite master suite.

The rest of the bedroom floor is comprised of one en suite bedroom, while a further two bedrooms have a Jack and Gill set-up that shares a bathroom and a balcony overlooking the garden. These bedrooms could be utilised as a separate suite, complemented by a well-positioned, cosy pyjama lounge.

An externally-accessed en suite bedroom studio with kitchenette provides the option for further accommodation or staff quarters.

Parking includes a double garage and off-street parking for two extra cars, with convenient, easy access to the house.

For peace of mind, outstanding security for the property includes CAP Smart Guard monitoring technology, CCTV, beams, and an internal alarm system. In addition, a security shutter seals off part of the bedroom area. Three street guards are positioned along the road, with one being a day-time guard right outside the property.

The home has prepaid electricity, but with a focus on sustainability and efficiency, two gas geysers are connected to Egoli gas, together with a hybrid 8KVA inverter, 3 x 5,12kw batteries and 12 solar panels, together with six Jo Jo tanks that seamlessly supply 5,000 litres of water to the house for consumption, all in all essentially taking the house off the grid.

An efficiently-timed garden irrigation system and storage shed complete the extra features of this wonderful property.

Located on a quiet, tree-lined avenue in the suburb, within convenient and effortless proximity to excellent schools, universities, hospitals, major business and shopping hubs, the Gautrain station and the wonderful restaurants and parks that the suburb has to offer, this home embodies a truly special and sustainable lifestyle.
