Pearl Valley Golf & Country Estate, Paarl

Exclusive Mandate Completed in 2024, this beautifully considered three-bedroom home with study in The Acres combines contemporary design with an unusually high level of comfort and attention to detail. At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan living space with a high vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, engineered timber flooring, a log-burning fireplace and air-conditioning. Large double-glazed doors and windows bring in plenty of natural light, while the kitchen forms part of the living space with a generous centre island and top-of-the-range Siemens appliances, including a Wi-Fi-enabled induction hob with integrated pop-up extractor. A separate braai room provides a second, more relaxed living and entertaining space, with an indoor braai and doors opening directly onto the garden and heated swimming pool. The concrete flooring here was deliberately chosen to help keep the space cooler during the warmer months. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, dressing area and excellent built-in storage. There are two further double bedrooms, a separate shower room and a study, with the third bedroom opening directly onto the side garden. A particular highlight is the temperature-controlled wine cellar – a fantastic feature for a Winelands home and beautifully finished with specialist wine-protective lighting. The house has been designed with year-round comfort in mind, with double-glazed tilt-and-turn windows and doors throughout, shutters and air-conditioning. Practical features include a separate utility room and drying area, double garage, automated irrigation and a substantial 16-panel solar and backup power system. Bright, spacious and exceptionally well maintained, this is a home that feels as good to live in as it looks – with everything on one level and very little left for a new owner to do. Set within The Acres at Pearl Valley, residents enjoy the security and lifestyle of one of the Cape Winelands' most sought-after estates, with access to Pearl Valley's Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, clubhouse, restaurants, leisure facilities, walking and cycling routes and the wider Estate lifestyle. A home where the quality is evident in the details.
