Daily Dream Home: Kyalami Estates

Pursuitist Luxury Best Luxury Blog

The Kyalami Estates suburb outside of Johannesburg, South Africa is one of the earliest examples of a development in the area enclosed by a security wall with 24-hour controlled access. It was designed to combine benefits of urban convenience with the parklands and a natural wetland. The neighborhood has landscaped sidewalks, play areas, picnics, and more.

Today’s home is nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac surrounded by tall trees. The entrance has a  trickling water feature and tiered garden that takes you into a bright and airy double volume hall, graced by a huge Italian chandelier.

To the right of the entrance, a flowing lounge leads to a music room, both facing the garden. A temperature controlled glass-fronted wine room is found behind the marble topped bar, with the private TV room alongside.

A bright atrium flanking the dining room brings in gorgeous natural light, opening onto the covered patio. The kitchen has Caesarstone counters and a glass-fronted Miele oven unit.

A charming playroom is found off the kitchen, also leading onto the patio, which is centrally placed and accessed on three sides via sliding doors leading out to the pool area and a secluded and very private landscaped garden with an Astro-turfed section for sport.

Up the marble and glass staircase, is an impressive master suite, with vast walk-in dressing room and bathroom that includes outdoor shower garden. Two more bedrooms, both with access to the wrap-around balcony, have full bathrooms. A library/homework area is found opposite the study, with oak floors.

A theater room/gym with kitchenette has its own balcony, with an additional study and en-suite guest room. This side of the house has its own outdoor stairs leading to the garden.

The triple garages with space for 4 cars, feature a mezzanine storage area, workshop and built-in cupboards. The servant’s quarters encompass a full bathroom plus kitchen, with another staff bathroom alongside.
