Set in the quietest corner of the Franschhoek valley, just two kilometres from the village centre, Sandstone House commands attention from the moment you arrive. The paved courtyard, anchored by a sculptural fountain and flanked by stone lions, leads to an ivy covered façade. The central gabled entrance rises like a pavilion, all classical curves and considered details. This is a residence that understands the power of first impressions.

With approximately 1,500m2 under roof, the estate encompasses the main residence, a manager's wing, generous garaging, and a 2 bedroom cottage. Within the main residence, 5 bedrooms are located upstairs and one on the ground floor, each designed with space and privacy in mind. Allowing for independent access, 4 of the suites enjoy their own private entrances, while remaining part of the home's harmonious flow.

A feature swimming pool, multiple fireplaces, underfloor heating, and air conditioning ensure comfort across seasons, while the chef's kitchen, equipped with commercial grade appliances, serves a light filled conservatory that seats ±60. Here, the pizza oven and rotisserie turn dinner into theatre.

A separate 2 bedroom villa, complete with its own conservatory and pool, provides the ultimate in privacy while maintaining those enviable vineyard views.

Beyond beauty lies purpose: 800 Merlot vines produce boutique wine, while 150 olive trees yield extra virgin oil. Award winning gardens, three swimming pools, and a floodlit tennis court create a resort like atmosphere. Practical luxuries include two boreholes, a 60KVA generator, and underground powerlines that preserve the uninterrupted 360 degree views.

Investment Potential

Already successful as a short term destination and sought after venue for weddings and film shoots, Sandstone House offers proven income streams with low operational costs. In a valley celebrated for its beauty and proximity to Cape Town, this represents both lifestyle and legacy.

Free from neighbouring rooftops and mountain shadows, Sandstone House enjoys light from sunrise to sunset. A rare sanctuary where European elegance meets Cape Winelands sophistication.
