The Grape Cottage, built in 1936, has been transformed into a classic-contemporary home for those with a love for the old and the new. Situated in Little Chelsea, Parkhurst, this home offers modest and comfortable living with an element of design flair.
The house is powered by a premium solar system, eliminating the distress and challenges of load-shedding. A newly updated indoor and outdoor security system ensures peace of mind. The home consists of 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms – 1 bedroom ensuite, and the 2nd and 3rd bedroom sharing. Attached to the house is an ideally sized ensuite cottage or 4th bedroom with a full bathroom.
The kitchen is the most delightful space in the home, looking onto the garden, it is flooded with early morning sunlight and is perfect for those that love to cook and entertain. It has a separate scullery, breakfast nook and pantry. The sunken living room boasts high ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace that warms up the whole house in winter. There are also energy efficient wall panel heaters installed throughout the home for the colder winter days. The formal dining room (or sunroom) is bordered by gorgeous, ceiling-high stacking doors that open up entirely to the garden, allowing this space to act as both an indoor space or covered, outdoor entertainment area. Off the dining area is a study, also looking onto the garden, which is ideally sized for those who work partly or entirely from home.
The garden has been designed with great love and care and has two established lemon trees that bear fruit all year. The outdoor patio makes a brilliant entertainment area for family braais and parties with friends. A little graveled nook in the corner of the garden makes a perfect area to watch the birds and sunset. There are 2 garages on the property.

And so, many of the houses date back to that era, having been re-modelled or renovated over the years, often more than once.
