Property Description
Location
Franschhoek is a scenic village in South Africa’s Cape Winelands, famous for its award-winning wine estates, like La Motte and Boschendal, and its vibrant culinary scene. The main street is lined with art galleries, boutiques and top restaurants, including multiple Eat Out award winners. Surrounded by the Franschhoek mountains, the area also offers hiking, cycling and the popular wine tram experience through the valley.
Description
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. 4 of the suites enjoy their own private entrances, allowing for independent access 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 two-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.
