Flexible Family Home in Peaceful Upper Robberg

SOLE MANDATE

A patterned cobbled drive guides you through the sliding gate into this fully fenced sanctuary, where guest parking rests beneath a tall yellowwood and whispering willow trees. Ahead, a second gate opens to the cleverly sectioned rear yard, where a double garage is accompanied by a versatile semi-open workshop that could easily be enclosed to become a studio, hobby room, or workspace.

You make your way to the front of the home, where the north-facing lawn, privatized by mature gardens, basks in warmth and light throughout the day. A cobbled clearing beckons for bonfires under the stars, the home’s covered entry porch easily accommodates outdoor dining, and just beside it, a triangular courtyard is perfect for warm summer evenings of braaiing and entertaining.

Inside, high ceilings and tiled floors set the tone in the dining area, where a beautiful wood-topped built-in bar adds character and charm. A U-shaped wooden kitchen extension acts as a natural bridge between dining and cooking — a refined presentation space, with cabinetry ready to house crockery and surfaces primed for buffet-style plating. Through its own door, the kitchen reveals itself as a true chef’s haven: private, wholesome, and wonderfully practical. Here, granite-look countertops, wood-trimmed white cabinetry, an oven, an induction cooktop, two gas burners, and appliance provision create a space where you can create cuisine rather than simply cook. A door leads directly from the kitchen to the rear yard, where a laundry room and hidden drying yard support an efficient homemaking flow.

To the right of the entrance, a door opens to the lounge — a contained, soundproof retreat with wooden ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and a fireplace that casts a soft glow, creating a cozy cocoon of warmth for chilly winter days.

Beyond the dining space, a hallway leads to the bedroom wing, where three bedrooms enjoy garden views and built-in storage — two with en-suite bathrooms, and a third served by a separate bathroom that can also accommodate day guests.

Up the stairs awaits a fully self-contained unit, with a door allowing it to be closed off from the main home and its own exterior staircase access from the front yard. This flexible configuration lends itself beautifully to rental income, private guest accommodation, or comfortable multi-generational living. Beneath its distinctive roofline, this level includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchenette with a gas hob, a dining nook, and a comfortable lounge.

Set within the peaceful hilltop suburb of Upper Robberg, this home enjoys the calm of purely local traffic, while remaining just five minutes from shops and seven from Plett’s famous beaches — a rare balance of serenity and seaside convenience.
