UNIQUE IN LONEHILL. BIG HOUSE. DOUBLE STAND IN 24 HR GUARDED COMPLEX. A STONE’S THROW FROM CRAWFORD.

Owners of this grand home are two top advertising executives.

4 big bedrooms. 3 bathrooms. On-suite with huge shower and big bath. 2 big studies. Good sized dining room. Super kitchen and open plan TV lounge. Pool, big double garage and further room to get your elbows out … here’s some detail:

Brick-paved courtyard leads to large double-door entry, which opens into a double volume tiled hallway. On the left, a sumptuously neat drawing room/study (it’s hers of course) with big bay windows that look out to the gorgeous indigenous garden. A pathway cuts its way between a yellowwood, bottlebrush, strelitzias, agapanthuses and African lilies, leading to a Victorian bench where you can sit and sip a glass of wine or 2 and enjoy the view down to the very privately planned rock pool.

Adjoining this comfy study is a large dining room with plenty of room for your art to be hung, and a good dinner to be had with like-minded friends. Well lit with dimmers on all switches. A large slider leads out onto the tiled patio that again looks down onto the garden and that pool, surrounded by washingtonias, massive tree ferns, another graceful yellowwood, two “Joshua Trees” and two lanky palms that have grown like rockets reaching for the sky.

Back into the house again via the covered patio through another large sliding door and into a double aspect TV lounge, again hung with art. The open plan adjoining double aspect kitchen is well planned, full of cupboards, a prep bowl and a walk-in pantry. A double aspect scullery completes the deal at the back of the house, where there is another paved yard.

Back into the hall there’s a tiled visitor’s washroom large enough to swing three cats in. Up the large glass-bricked window-lit stairs there’s another large study (his, and it’s a mess, well he’s a man) it’s to the right. And to the left? A big open plan landing and another large window.

There are 3 bedrooms on this floor. All doubles. The first has its own patio and overlooks the garden. The second slightly smaller. A good-sized floor-to-ceiling tiled bathroom, with shower and bath serves them both well.

And for you, the new owners? Double doors lead you into big double aspect master bedroom. Three sets of windows, and then the glazed door leads you out onto your own very large private tiled patio. The view is breathtaking. Out across the valley, onto the castle and beyond.

A dressing room is off the main bedroom and leads to a floor-to-ceiling fully tiled double aspect bathroom. The glass sided shower is big. I mean BIG. Easily room for 2. The bath can also take 2. A huge walled mirror serves the double basin vanity so it can take 2 at a time as well. There’s no squabbling in this home. There’s room for everyone. Even the massive floor-to-ceiling cupboards and drawers in the bedroom and dressing room are carefully and considerately shared out. Just 6 for him and 7 for her!

And here’s a surprise. Pop outside again. Up the steps into another wing. A complete double aspect cottage in the sky! Bedroom, bathroom and a kitchenette. It was a 5 star domestic room, and before that an office for 4. Or a bedroom for one fast growing teenager today!

So if you want a home that gives you room to live, and you don’t want to be shoehorned into another bland box of a complex home, this one, this ONLY ONE, of this size in Lonehill, might be for you?
