Some properties are simply homes. Others offer a lifestyle that is almost impossible to replicate. Tucked away in the sought-after suburb of Valmary Park, Durbanville, this exceptional residence occupies the largest erf in the neighbourhood, offering an extraordinary sense of space, privacy and tranquillity that is seldom found so close to the heart of Durbanville.
Accessed via a panhandle, the property feels like a secluded country retreat, hidden away from the outside world. Here, a sprawling garden becomes your own private park, where children can run and play freely, dogs have room to roam, and family and friends can gather without ever needing to leave home to find open space.
This mid-century modern architectural style home welcomes you with the warmth and character of beautiful blackwood flooring and yellowwood ceilings, creating an inviting atmosphere that blends timeless charm with comfortable family living. Five bedrooms and three spacious living areas provide ample room for a growing family, while a dedicated office offers the ideal space to work from home. With three full bathrooms and an additional guest toilet, the home is designed to accommodate both everyday living and entertaining with ease. The office space and fifth bedroom can easily be combined into a separate flatlet. A separate domestic room and adjacent bathroom offer further versatility.
Step outside and discover what makes this property truly special. The sparkling swimming pool invites you to enjoy long summer days, while the braai deck nestled beneath mature trees provides the perfect setting for relaxed afternoons and memorable evenings with family and friends. On cold or windy days, the quaint indoor braai room provides the perfect space for unforgettable gatherings. Beyond the entertainment areas, the expansive garden unfolds towards beautiful views of the Stellenbosch mountains, creating a peaceful backdrop to everyday life.
Water-wise living is a particular advantage here. A borehole delivering approximately 500 litres per hour supplies the fully irrigated garden, while a charming, old-style farm dam feeds the garden's water stations. A koi pond, home to approximately 30 koi fish, adds another tranquil feature to this distinctive outdoor setting. Three-phase electricity further enhances the property's practical appeal. A double garage with store room and undercover parking for a trailer adds practical value.
The location is equally compelling. Positioned between Durbanville Preparatory School and Durbanville Primary School, with Valmary Park Preparatory School also close by, the school run can become a pleasant walk rather than a daily drive. Shops, amenities and the conveniences of Durbanville are within easy reach, yet the property retains a remarkable sense of privacy and space.
Properties of this size and character in Valmary Park are exceptionally rare. Whether you dream of a family haven with room for everyone, a garden where children and pets can enjoy the freedom of the outdoors, or simply a private sanctuary with beautiful mountain views, this is an opportunity to secure something genuinely special.
