TRADITIONAL FAMILY HOME ON 1,568 Sqm- ST LEDGER HOUSE, LOVERS WALK - UPPER KENILWORTH

Built in 1936 for Lady St Ledger-Searle this wonderful 5 bedroomed home has only known 4 owners. Its enormous charm and character have been retained, offering the craftsmanship and quality of build that one does not always find in today’s modern homes. It remains the perfect family home and garden – a delight for children of all ages.

The home boasts 3 separate living rooms, a conservatory, 5 bedrooms, a lovely eat-in kitchen, an old-fashioned walk-in pantry, a large scullery/laundry room, an ample study near the heart of the house, staff accommodation, 3 car garaging, 3 storerooms and even a quaint little potting shed.

The charming front entrance court leads to an elegant parquet-floored entrance hall. The drawing room is gracious and spacious, has a wonderful fireplace, beautiful, panelled ceilings, great natural light and double doors opening to a glass conservatory. The conservatory has floor to ceiling glass sliding doors that open to the garden and swimming pool. An additional vine-covered patio is an added bonus for outside entertaining. A separate dining room and a separate TV/reading room are both cosy and inviting and both rooms also have the wonderful, panelled ceilings. The TV room is equipped with a great fireplace and built-in bookcases. The study is spacious and could easily be used as an extra bedroom if required.

The kitchen is well designed and has a walk-in pantry and a very large scullery/laundry room. An eat-in area opens to the prettiest courtyard.

The master bedroom has a large en-suite bathroom and built-in cupboards, is sunny and warm and has a great bay window with a built-in seating area. Three further downstairs bedrooms share a family bathroom. The 5th bedroom is upstairs: it is a large room with an en-suite shower room and is accessed by a fabulous spiral staircase. This room also has its own separate entrance and would be ideal for a teenager or university student, or a live-in au pair.

The award-winning garden is an absolute delight with mature trees and shrubs and soft rolling lawns, and the pool is a great size for any family.

Lovers Walk is located in the highest part of Upper Kenilworth. As you approach the house along this quiet one-way road giving onto Tennant Road it offers magnificent views from Wynberg Hill and across the wonderful playing fields of Wynberg Boys High School (where neighbourhood residents gain private key access and may walk their dogs or play in the cricket nets before and after school hours). At the same time, it is close to everything: just moments away from the many good schools of the Southern Suburb, UCT, Kirstenbosch gardens, Cavendish Square and local hospitals.

This is your chance to secure a beautiful character residence with the understated feel of an English gentleman’s country retreat – and inimitable character and sense of place that only a home built in the early 1900’s or earlier can validly claim. All this in a truly a world-class setting.
