A magical hideaway in Constantia Upper - Where home feels like a sanctuary

Down a quiet, tree-lined panhandle in the heart of Constantia Upper, a hidden retreat reveals itself - peaceful, sun-drenched, and utterly enchanting. This single-storey home, lovingly owned by the same family for over 20 years, exudes warmth, tranquility, and timeless charm. Tucked away in complete privacy, yet just a short walk from the boutique offerings of Constantia Village.

Set on a 1,703m² north-facing level plot, the garden has been thoughtfully designed to soothe and inspire. A sparkling, heated pool is framed by manicured, low-maintenance landscaping, while a private putting green adds a touch of playful luxury - perfect for unwinding or perfecting your swing. The garden is nourished by a borehole-fed irrigation system, with two water tanks ensuring sustainability year-round. The garden creates a magical atmosphere by night, ideal for alfresco dining or late summer swims.

Inside, natural light floods each room, softened by garden views and calming textures. An entrance hall welcomes you into expansive living spaces: a large lounge and a sunny family room with fireplace, both flowing effortlessly to the patio and garden through sliding doors. The separate dining room offers an elegant space for family meals and entertaining. Throughout the home, there is a seamless blend of character and modern comfort, with select double-glazed windows for added warmth and efficiency.

The spacious eat-in kitchen is the heart of the home with built-in appliances and a separate scullery/laundry smartly plumbed for two appliances leads onto the courtyard. Tucked discreetly off the kitchen is a room currently used as a study, which was once staff accommodation and could easily be converted back, offering versatile potential. A second, dedicated study offers the perfect work-from-home setup or reading room.

Accommodation is generous and serene. The main bedroom is a private haven with a walk-in dressing room, a luxurious full en-suite, and an adjoining jacuzzi/gym room that opens directly to the patio - creating a spa-like retreat infused with garden energy. Bedrooms two and three share a tastefully renovated full bathroom, while the guest suite, positioned for privacy, features its own en suite. Every space feels considered, restful, and filled with light.

Modern infrastructure enhances the home’s quiet luxury: solar panels, an inverter and battery system, a water filtration system, and a CCTV security system, including camera coverage at the main gate, ensure peace of mind and efficient living. A double garage with direct access, plus ample off-street parking for four or more vehicles, completes the picture of comfort and practicality.

Nestled in one of Cape Town’s most desirable and picturesque suburbs, this home offers more than just beautiful living - it offers a lifestyle. In Constantia Upper, surrounded by greenbelts, historic wine estates, and tree canopied lanes, you’re never far from nature, community, or convenience. Whether it’s morning walks, weekend market visits, or peaceful afternoons in the garden, life here unfolds slowly and beautifully. A rare and radiant sanctuary, ready for its next chapter.
