This home offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and spacious and luxurious entertainment rooms. The mansion still has its original hand painted pressed ceilings and several (6) original fireplaces in the bedrooms and reception areas.
Upon entering this Victorian beauty, you are blown away by the opulence and grace of the era in which this house was built. The original ambience of the house was superbly kept whilst delicately restoring this beauty with respect to perfection. The house was built in 1880 by Baron Werdmuller Von Elgg, a Baron from Zurich and was constructed with material brought by ship from England . Every piece was handpicked, from the pressed ceilings to hand crafted fireplaces .
On the way to the front door of this Victorian beauty past the a water fountain and the original red steps, you are astounded that the double storey wrap around veranda , stained glass windows and shutters are all intact whilst adding to the story of this home. The detail is immense and the current owner managed to keep the ambience of this lovely home, combining old and new . The woodwork, balustrade to the first floor and luxurious fabrics used in the interior, all create a feeling of luxury , but still home. The brand new gourmet kitchen with Smegg appliances amongst others, was renovated in the style of the house .
The Von Elgg home is one of the finest and best kept historical homes in the Western Cape. It will make any owner proud to possess such a Historical Monument in such a beautiful condition.
