Luxury and sophistication in Cowies Hill
TYSON Properties, an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, is marketing a Tuscan-styled home that exudes luxury, comfort, sophistication and style – with a touch of glamour from a bygone era.
Situated on a hilltop on Rockhaven Road in Cowie’s Hill, this luxurious 1 000m2 home set on an expansive 5 000m2 estate offers spectacular 180-degree views.
“From the minute you drive through the lofty wrought-iron gates, you cannot help but be dazzled by the topiarylined avenue that opens onto a sweeping circular driveway from which this magnificent home comes into full view,” explains Tyson Properties Westville agent, Sharon Cockerell Brown.
The expansive ground floor boasts deluxe features including Oregon hardwood flooring, builtin bookcases and cabinets, textured wallpapers and plush carpeting. Most of the rooms have double wooden doors that open up to the outside, maximising the views while allowing the sunshine to pour in.
The northern and western side of the home is hugged by a spacious wraparound veranda offering great spaces for entertaining.
Adding a touch of olde worlde charm to a home that offers every modern convenience are two beautiful back-to-back Georgian fireplaces with built-in Jetmasters, which divide the formal dining room and the family lounge and which operate independently of one another. The spacious and inviting kitchen features a central island with stovetop and space for seating as well as an informal dining area that overlooks a manicured courtyard. A downstairs study room also opens onto this quiet and private spot.
Designed with family in mind, the second floor offers four double bedrooms, two with ensuite bathrooms, a family bathroom, a grand study and a cosy “pyjama lounge”. The master suite has a walk-in dressing room, a Juliet balcony and a deluxe bathroom.
The property also offers two apartments. The first is a second-floor, 140-m2 two-bedroom twobathroom flat with a stunning kitchen and gas stove. On the ground level is a modern apartment as well as staff accommodation – both with one bedroom and a kitchen.
The home’s outside spaces include a sparkling lap pool just beyond the outdoor entertainment area, an automated threecar garage, a three-car carport and ample uncovered parking.
