Spacious Family Home with Timeless Charm and Views of the Drakenstein Mountains

Perched high on one of Paarl Mountain’s most sought-after roads, this spacious double-storey home combines old-world charm with modern family living. Ideally located less than two kilometres from two of South Africa’s top schools, it offers the perfect balance of convenience, space, and tranquility, an ideal home for a large or growing family.

Set on an expansive erf of more than 1,000 sqm, the property is surrounded by lush lawns, mature trees, and beautifully maintained flower beds. The garden features a large, child-safe swimming pool with a safety fence and cover, creating the perfect setting for relaxed family living and entertaining.

The entrance gate is automated, leading to a triple carport and a double garage with an automated door, providing secure parking and easy access. A security camera at the front gate offers additional peace of mind.

Entering the home, you descend a few steps to the welcoming front door. The upper level of the house hosts three well-appointed bedrooms, all with built-in cupboards, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and large windows capturing sweeping views over the Paarl Valley and distant blue mountains. Two bedrooms share a modern family bathroom and a separate toilet, while the spacious main suite features a contemporary en-suite bathroom, a built-in wardrobe, and direct access to a tranquil garden corner with a fountain and clivias beneath a majestic old Fuchsia tree.

The modern open-plan kitchen forms the heart of the home, complete with a generous work island, an 800mm gas stove, and a serving counter that connects seamlessly to the dining area. From here, the dining room flows into a comfortable lounge with a fireplace and sliding doors that open onto a balcony, inviting you to enjoy the beautiful mountain and valley views.

On the opposite side of the kitchen, a bright, north-facing room with floor-to-ceiling stack doors offers flexibility as a hobby space, home office, or studio. With its access to the front gate, it’s ideal for a work-from-home business or guest consulting area.

The home features roller blinds throughout, warm wooden laminate and stone-tiled floors, and abundant natural light.

A staircase leads down to the lower level, where a large indoor braai room opens through sliding doors to the pool garden and lawn — perfect for year-round entertaining. This level also includes three additional rooms that can be used as bedrooms, studies, or guest suites, as well as a practical bathroom with outside access for use by garden or pool services.

Equipped with 12 solar panels and an inverter system, this home offers excellent energy efficiency and reduced reliance on the grid, a valuable feature for sustainable living. For added water security, the property also includes three water storage tanks of approximately 2,500–3,000 litres each.

With its elevated position, established gardens, modern conveniences, and proximity to top schools, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a classic Paarl Mountain property that perfectly blends vintage charm with contemporary family comfort.
