This Villa boasts 7 bedrooms in total, and includes two fully functional kitchens, two private patios, two lounges, two dining rooms and under floor heating throughout.  Glass doors allow access to the main patio which houses a pizza oven and barbeque. This Villa is situated in the lush, tree-lined, mountain-view suburb of Bishopscourt, known for homes that are nestled amongst acres of beautiful green forest. The Villa seems to be representative of an opulent country home set in the Mediterranean.  The utopia of over-grown vegetation, fruit trees and rose bushes which populate the expansive garden facing the Devils Peak side of Table Mountain’s range, hide the opulence of the Villa from the road. The right wing of the Villa is smaller than the left wing, yet it is still indulgently decorated with antique Mahogany furnishings and genuine oriental and Persian rugs.  The left side of the Villa includes a lounge which has its own satellite TV package, DVD player, surround-sound music system and flat-screen TV. An original antique wood bar frames an open-planned formal dining room. This living area has dual access onto the road-side terraced garden, as well as to its own, private patio which overlooks the lush back garden and its spectacular mountain views. A separate and more informal dining area, finished with Maple Wood and Granite, is situated in the front area of the kitchen. The single most stunning and unique aspect of this property lies in the exceptionality of its garden.  This is a natural paradise with unmatched potential for entertaining.  The garden features blossoming lemon trees, lime trees, fig trees, guava trees and an apple tree. A tiered vegetable garden is situated alongside the cottage, as well as an herb garden, containing most herbs. A gorgeous Koi Pond incorporates a bubbling water-fountain in its centre.   A tennis court is situated at the bottom of the garden, affording 360 degree mountain views. The large swimming pool, although not heated electrically, has black walls, which absorb all of the sun’s heat.  This results in pleasant luke-warm water during summer. Additionally, the property allows for secure, off-street parking for a total of 8 cars. BEDROOM DETAILS
