SOLE MANDATE:
Set within a quiet Franskraal cul-de-sac, this thoughtfully designed three-bedroom home blends modern convenience with an easy-going coastal-country vibe. The living area features double-volume ceilings with exposed white wooden trusses and loads of natural light, flowing out onto the patio for relaxed al fresco evenings overlooking the garden, where established olive trees produce a rather impressive crop. An added bonus is the eastern boundary, which overlooks protected fynbos, ensuring that green outlook won't be disappearing behind someone's future building project! Indoors, the recently installed fireplace is just the thing for cooler coastal evenings, while underfloor heating takes the chill off winter mornings. The modern kitchen, complete with separate scullery, has newly refurbished countertops, while upstairs, the loft provides versatile extra space for visitors, relaxation, or a home office, with its own balcony and views. Three bedrooms are situated on the ground floor, two of which open directly onto the garden, and the recently updated bathrooms add a contemporary touch. Other improvements include a resurfaced entrance stoep, a new garage door, sealed parapets, fresh exterior paint, and an upgraded security system with perimeter beams and security lighting at the front and rear.
Known for its long stretch of sandy shoreline, rocky coves and unhurried seaside atmosphere, Franskraal is popular with holidaymakers and permanent residents alike, and offers a welcome escape from the busier coastal centres, with swimming, fishing, beach walks and whale watching among its attractions. The coastline is particularly appealing to those who enjoy a more natural, less commercialised seaside setting, while Gansbaai's shops, restaurants and everyday amenities are just a short drive away. Franskraal has retained much of its traditional holiday-village character, making it an appealing choice for those looking for a slower pace of coastal living.
