Some homes are built. Others are created over time.
Tucked away in the heart of Jordaan Park, this extraordinary property is for the buyer who appreciates character, craftsmanship, history and individuality rather than a house that looks like every other home on the market.
The property has a fascinating heritage with its origins being traced to an historic sandstone barn and coach house associated with the Goodwin family, with the original structure carefully dismantled, relocated and subsequently transformed into a residence.
Today, the result is wonderfully unconventional.
Inside, stone, timber, terracotta, glass, brick and warm natural textures come together to create an atmosphere that photographs simply cannot fully convey. The expansive glass enclosed Entertainment Area is undoubtedly the heart of the home, bringing the garden right into the living environment and creating a sense of being surrounded by greenery.
The exposed sandstone walls add texture and history, while the timber detailing, pitched ceilings and distinctive lighting give the interiors an unmistakably eclectic, artistic and deeply personal character. The Kitchen continues that theme, combining practical modern functionality with the warmth of timber cabinetry, patterned floor tiles, open shelving and Slate Top Island. It feels connected to the living and dining areas rather than being an isolated workspace. A beautiful Gas Stove.
The Bedrooms continue the home's relaxed, collected character, with timber structural elements and views and connections into the surrounding garden. Outside, mature trees and established landscaping create a private, almost woodland like setting, with the buildings sitting naturally amongst the greenery rather than dominating it.
This property is for someone who walks into a room and notices the old stone, the timber, the light, the proportions, the handmade details and the stories behind the objects. A home for someone who wants to restore, create, collect, entertain, garden, read, work, disappear from the ordinary - or simply live somewhere that feels unlike anywhere else.
More than a house, it is a piece of Heidelberg history that has been adapted into a deeply individual home.
