- Citizen reporter

Property on Mount Street has long been the envy of the most affluent.

Park Village Auctions (PVA) has announced the sale of a “magnificen­t” five-bedroom family home with a highly coveted address in Bryanston, Johannesbu­rg, at the end of this month. Property on Mount Street has long been the envy of the most affluent in the City of Gold. Now, PVA brings number 12A (portion 1 of ERF 1027) to market via a simultaneo­us onsite and webcast auction.

“Hurry”, advises head auctioneer Clive Lazarus as he explains that viewing is available only to registered bidders.

The triple-storey dwelling welcomes guests with a double-volume entrance hall that leads to a formal lounge, a family room, a casual living room, a guest cloakroom, a billiards room, a formal dining room, a breakfast room, a kitchen with a pantry and a scullery, two covered entertainm­ent areas and two courtyards with water features.

Private quarters comprise a study, four bedrooms (two with en-suite bath and dressing rooms), a family bathroom and the main bedroom, which features an en-suite bathroom with steam shower, a large dressing room, and a pyjama lounge.

Situated above the four garages are offices comprising an open plan office/ reception, a glass partitione­d boardroom, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a private wine cellar and bar.

Additional features include a timber viewing deck, jacuzzi and entertainm­ent area, a swimming pool overlookin­g landscaped gardens, a gatehouse, two storerooms and a staff cottage with an openplan lounge and dining room, a fitted kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom.

Water features, streams, an electrifie­d brick boundary wall and a paved driveway make up the last improvemen­ts on the 3 985m2 stand.

“Houses like this come around once in a blue moon. The fact that it is available by auction – eliminatin­g months of price haggling with suspensive conditions makes it all the more appealing,” says Lazarus.
