SOLE MANDATE
If you've ever made your way spiritedly down to the Poortjies lagoon, keen for a session of super chilled waterside relaxation, chances are you've never even seen this stunning piece of property. Only 250m from the water's edge, yet still private and secluded, it is one of the mysteries of this dreamy, exclusive little suburb.
Welcomed by a wide, paved vehicle entrance, it doglegs to the left where you have the pick of 3 garage spaces, or parking in the voluminous driveway. Above the garages, a glimpse of al fresco living piques the curiosity and the urge to explore the property from within. To the right of the portico, a spacious and independent flatlet opens out onto the northern side of the property, complete with a private braai area. The bedroom, bathroom, children's bunk beds, lounge and kitchen all work within the space, perfect for short holiday or guest stays.
Immediately to the left of the front door, an independent entrance to another spacious flatlet, with bedroom, en-suite, compact kitchen and lounge. Around the corner from the garages is a dedicated outdoor living/braai area for this flatlet, affording privacy should it be rented out independently of the rest of the house. Through the front door, and there are 2 more substantially sized bedrooms with en-suites. Up the staircase, and the sense of arrival greets you like a crisp sea breeze, the light and sounds of the nearby waters filling the air with energy and serenity. A sumptuous lounge area to the right centres around the fireplace and stacked logs; the modern and well equipped kitchen to the left, ready to embrace newcomers at the breakfast counter for an introductory cocktail or a conversational coffee. A separate scullery and laundry aid any attempts at classy entertainment. Open plan as is the must nowadays, the kitchen blends into the dining room, spacious enough for a 12 seater table, and flowing further through stackaway aluminium doors onto the balcony where further opportunity for revelling in Plett's balmy climate awaits you.
A covered outdoor entertainment area alongside a stealthy, half Bali-esque braai nook present the first layer, beyond which an expansive open-skied balcony welcomes all unto loungers and deck chairs, table and umbrellas. From here the calming liquid of the lagoon shows itself at last, bending along the sandied shores, joined to deep blue sea of the Bay by the gentle sand dunes of Lookout Beach. Lookout Point and Robberg Peninsula stagger themselves in the distance, providing depth and contrast to an already impressive view.
Not to be outdone, on the northern side, just past the guest bathroom, lies the main bedroom, a truly grand affair. A magnificent headboard serves as a divider between the bathroom and sleeping area, the bathroom itself spacious and well equipped with double vanities, a bath and shower.. A dressing table and a multitude of occasional chairs lend to the atmosphere of a private relaxation chamber, stackaway screen doors at the ready to repel or embrace any visitors.
To the rear of the property is a separate domestic's quarters with bathroom. Perfect for on-site assistance during large gatherings.
Modern, multifaceted and magnificent, this Poortjies proposition awaits one who can fully appreciate and enjoy her potential.
