Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul de sac in highly sought after Bishopscourt Village, this expansive three level residence offers a rare blend of contemporary design, versatile living, and a seamless connection to nature — with direct access to the Upper Liesbeek River Garden.

At the heart of the home is an impressive double volume living area, where a copper hooded fireplace and chandelier set the tone for both comfort and elegance. A full wall of electronically operated glass opens onto panoramic mountain views and a sparkling pool, delivering an extraordinary indoor–outdoor experience.

Created for effortless entertaining, the open plan kitchen and dining area are generous in scale, while the enclosed veranda with built in braai — framed by stackable glass doors — flows onto a view drenched terrace. Above the living space, a mezzanine library balcony once hosted a string quartet, reflecting the home's remarkable sense of occasion.

Offering six en suite bedrooms, the home provides exceptional flexibility. Air conditioning throughout ensures year round comfort, and three separate entrances allow for varied configurations — ideal for multi generational living, guest hosting, or a boutique hospitality venture. The lower level includes two suites with an open plan lounge and kitchenette, while a separate external suite with its own entrance and kitchenette is ideal as a studio, home office, or staff quarters.

An advanced energy system sets this property apart. A powerful solar array and cutting edge inverter with lithium iron batteries significantly reduce reliance on the grid, offering real energy resilience. Underfloor heating, a pool heat pump, high speed vpn enabled Wi Fi, and three phase electricity further enhance convenience.

Wine enthusiasts will appreciate the temperature controlled wine cellar. Additional highlights include:

Three car garage and secure off street parking for six vehicles — a rare offering in Bishopscourt Village
Two large JoJo tanks with fully automated irrigation
Option to purchase the home fully furnished
Excellent internal and external security systems

Though modest in size, the garden opens directly onto the Upper Liesbeek River Garden — a beautifully maintained communal greenbelt that acts as an extension of the property and a tranquil sanctuary within the neighbourhood. Known for its peace, safety and neighbourly warmth, Bishopscourt Village is one of Cape Town's most desirable and tightly knit residential enclaves.

Ideally located near leading schools, top hospitals, uct, Cavendish Mall, and the Constantia Wine Route — with swift access to the M3, cbd, and airport — this unique property offers an exceptional lifestyle for those who value beauty, comfort, and connectivity.

We invite discerning buyers to experience the quiet sophistication of this remarkable Bishopscourt Village home — a rare opportunity to live expansively, beautifully, and with intention.
