Onrus, Hermanus

Some homes are finished stories. Others invite you to write the next chapter.
Tucked away in a peaceful Onrus cul-de-sac, this double-storey home is one of those properties that asks you to look, imagine and see the possibilities. Much of the transformation has already taken place, yet there is still work to be done and room for its next owners to make it unmistakably their own.
Step through the front door into an impressive double-volume entrance hall, where the sense of space immediately sets the tone. A separate TV room lies just off the entrance — a relaxed retreat from the main living areas — with a guest cloakroom conveniently nearby.
Wander a little further and the home begins to open up.
A beautiful modern kitchen takes centre stage, complemented by a separate scullery and flowing into the open-plan dining area. Here, a built-in braai makes entertaining part of everyday life, while doors lead you straight out into the green, private garden. The spacious formal lounge offers another inviting place to gather, relax and simply enjoy being home.
Then head upstairs, because this is where the house has another surprise waiting.
The ocean comes into view — and impressively so. Stretching across the rooftops towards Walker Bay, the elevated outlook brings that wonderful sense of coastal space and blue horizon into the upper level of the home.
There are four spacious bedrooms upstairs. The main bedroom enjoys the outlook and features an en-suite bathroom and generous dressing area with an abundance of cupboard space. Three further bedrooms and a full family bathroom complete the accommodation.
And beyond the house itself, there is something rather special about the street. It is a peaceful, friendly cul-de-sac where neighbours still know one another — a sentiment echoed by homeowners we know and have sold homes to right here.
Now flip through the photographs.
We’ve deliberately shown the home both as it stands today and digitally furnished. Look at the empty spaces, then see them come to life. Picture your furniture, your family, summer lunches spilling into the garden and mornings upstairs with Walker Bay on the horizon.
The transformation has begun. The rest is yours to imagine.
