 Hello and welcome to another episode of the Private Property Home Shopper Show. We are back in Johannesburg and not just anywhere in Johannesburg, we are here in Benmore, one of its most affluent areas. Just a stone's throw away from Santon at a luxury four-story mansion. Now this home has got so many incredible features and I want you to come along with me and let's take a look at them. Come on, let's have some fun. So coming through the solid oak door you are greeted with stunning edging on the stairs leading up to the mezzanine level. And throughout this home what you'll notice is how it uses light and shapes to really emphasise how much of an architectural masterpiece it is. But right here we're on the mezzanine level and if you look over this balustrade you'll find yourself looking down onto the Sunken Lounge. Now the Sunken Lounge is carpeted with the same edging material you saw when you walked through the front door. It also has built-in couches for you to enjoy and relax while you do watch TV. But really what makes this Sunken Lounge so special is this incredible fireplace with its smokestack leading all the way up nearly four stories into the roof. But not only that, just behind the fireplace you can look into your very own wine cellar off the lockdown. You all know how much I like wine and I'm most certainly going to be visiting that wine cellar. But I love these balustrades, I love how all of these elements mesh together and the design elements come together so nicely. But this Sunken Lounge also faces floor to ceiling glass wall looking out onto your carport. So take a look at that and I'm going to wrap around and show you what the rest of this house has to offer. Now from that Sunken living room area you have two ways of walking into this formal dining room area. The one was where you came from and the other was just around the back here, plenty of space in this formal dining room area. This is a 10-seater table that fits really comfortably here. Then we've also got that smokestack acting almost like a design element coming over the wall and right over there from the third floor you can look down into your formal dining room area. I love how it has been developed, I love the design elements of this home, it is incredible. As well as these windows here, three of them going across this hallway, massive windows that open all the way up onto one of the coolest entertainment areas I think we have ever seen. But there's so much more to show you about this house and really why wait, let's take a look at the kitchen. So coming down that hallway we find ourselves in this kitchen, beautiful Caesar stone all around you, really spacious kitchen, really well equipped kitchen. So we've got a Miele cooktop, this is induction, we've then got right over here both a Miele oven as well as a Miele microwave. We've got water filtration from the sink, a Miele fridge which is probably one of the biggest fridges I've ever seen in the house. Then display cabinets above as well as right in front of me you've got your security system, there are cameras that surround the house and all of it gets piped right into your kitchen here so you can see it from anywhere. This kitchen then leads directly out into the entertainment area but let me run this way because I want to show you this here. I think it's such a cool feature is you've got an open display cabinet right over here looking into your kitchen, again, creating almost an art piece right over here. You've got your breakfast look, so many things to talk about, extract the fan. Then another awesome feature that you might miss are these shelves here that are lit individually drawing so much attention to them and really keeping it as a standout feature. Here are four really cool features to talk about in this kitchen before we leave. There is down lighting underneath the cupboards as well as above the cupboards giving you such a cool effect. Then you've got your very own wine chiller built in on the right hand side exactly where all your cupboards are and then right next to you induction cooker you've got a teppanyaki grill. So if you really want to go out there with some of your meals, this kitchen is for you and this home has got so much, so much so in fact that it's so easy to get lost. So what we want to do now is let's take you from the kitchen to the scullery area. Let's show you that and then we can take a tour around the rest of the home. Now walking into the scullery, the first thing you'll notice is again, Caesar stone countertops throughout the scullery. You've got plenty of under counter storage, beautiful laminated wood storage and then on the other side you've got a massive sink there with your center wash drawer as well as a door that leads outside. And if you go through that door and wrap around the back of the house with an easy walking distance you'll find a laundry room with plenty of space for all of the elements you need to keep them out of your house, to keep the humidity out of your house and also to keep the noise out of your house. Now located just behind your formal dining room area you'll find your half bathroom which is super well equipped with really high end porcelain. You've got your single vanity there, a mirror that stretches from wall to wall with backlighting and then your soft clothes toilet. Located adjacent to the kitchen you'll find another bedroom or what is currently being utilized as an office space right now. This bedroom is slightly smaller than the other bedrooms in the home but it does come with its own air con as well as a shower and single vanity just off behind a door on the one side. The other door behind door number two is a big storage space that can be used either to house kitchen equipment or anything currently related to your office. Now coming out of the kitchen where we find ourselves is the formal living room area. Now this living room area again continues that entertainment theme. You then right up on this wall we see all the speakers there JBL providing you all the tunes you need when you are entertaining guests. I also love the latticework of this wall and the way it plays with the artwork behind it like I mentioned this home is a work of art. From this formal dining room area back into this long open passageway again we've got a sliding door here that opens out on to the outside area where the pool is. We're all your tan index so we're outside bright as well as the bar area but before we show you any of this let's wrap up the second level. Let's show you the bedrooms, let's show you all the other features located right here and then outside we go upstairs and the last thing we're going to show you is the incredible view that this home has to offer. Now moving into this hallway this is where three of the bedrooms found on this floor are located. Now all of these bedrooms also have ensuite bathrooms but right here front and centre as soon as you come down this long hallway you find yourself looking at this incredible display cabinet showcasing any art you've accumulated through your travels, any photos, any portraits. I love how it's here, I love how your attention comes straight to it and I also love how it spices up a relatively unassuming hallway. But right over here is the first bedroom we're going to take a look at so come with me let's see what bedrooms within this mansion look like. So we've switched things up, this room has got mirrors located almost everywhere and my cameraman is very very shy so he's decided to have me come from the outside area and it's really cool because this bedroom as well as the other bedroom both have access to your own exclusive outside area that we're going to definitely show you but here we are first bedroom you can see massive absolutely massive right here it's been turned into an almost office space. If you've got children if you've got kids that want their own space that want their own lounges this bedroom is perfect on my right hand side ensuite bathroom and then there is a built-in safe in this room a walk-in safe. So really if you all about those valuables if you're Scrooge McDucking this room is all for you we'll show you that built-in safe but coming along this way is walking into your sleeping area. This year we've got a king-size bed here fits absolutely easily we've got now a TV over there so if you're into watching TV into bed this room again caters for it down lighting throughout the room air conditioning in this room as well and then sliding glass door leading into that outside entertainment area. Let's take a look and yeah we are within this fabled outside entertainment area that I spoke to you so much about fire pit located right here with this built-in seating all the way around you can throw some cushions on there and have a really awesome awesome time you're enjoying a fire. Lighting built in as well then on my left hand side we've got some privacy shields blocking off the grass area from the rest of this entertainment area if you've got some pets I'm sure they're going to love having their own private place to play. Now if you take a stroll through the grass area you'll wrap around the back of the home where your laundry room is located there are also two cottages there or staff quarters that are fully equipped with the kitchen, bedroom as well as en suite bathroom so you know that you've got that covered. But there's so much more to talk about here as well because if you walk this way we walk onto some decking now this hasn't been finished up yet but you can see the thought process you can see the design elements we've got a charcoal fireplace right there some lighting around the home. As well as these built-in speakers when I say this is an entertainer's dream I mean it. Now I want to show you this right over here see this awning now this awning has got something to do with the second bedroom we're going to show you in a moment so let's run all the way back in and around to that bedroom and I'm going to talk about what this awning does. Now before we leave this bedroom let's talk about that en suite bathroom you've got a bathtub absolutely massive mirror there that can be then turned up for some extra storage space you've got a single vanity and then your toilet located just to the right of it. And here we are we've toured the first bedroom this is the second right here and the theme continues with space in all the bedrooms so plenty of space here for a bed obviously you've noticed that right over here is a walk-in closet. So you open that door you've got plenty of cupboard space then we've got an en suite bathroom on the right hand side bathtub toilet sinks under counter storage your single vanity massive mirror I love how all of these bedrooms are so well-equipped but let's swivel around because what I want to show you is that awning and what that awning does so this bedroom has something really cool it has its very own sunroom and above me are all windows that awning can open up and flood this room with light with air if you open up the windows it must make it such a nice place to sit read a book or as it is outfitted right now exercise I love what they've done there it's so unique you definitely don't see that in a lot of South African homes. And here we are finally within the creme de la creme the master suite and today I have a guest cat who's going to walk around this room with me and show you some of the coolest features the first thing that probably stands out the most is just over there you'll see you also have access to your security system it's piped into all the TVs around the house now this room what I really like about it is just the way the ceiling arcs and curves around you it really gives this room a special feeling specifically when you talk about it in relation to the other two bedroom plantation style shutters here sliding door that leads outside into your garden area and just over here a sunroom flanked by shutters that is making perfect reading nook incredible furniture I really like all of this has been done but that's not all let's run around this side plenty of space for even the biggest beds you've got an area that's so nicely lit if you want to showcase any more art again speakers built into this room aircon fan and walking closet and here it is your walk in closet every single closet flanked with the mirror makes this place look very very big but also if you want to make sure you speak and spend before you go which I don't really think I'll make the cut but this is exactly where you want to be so much storage and then there's a little secret room right here this this this mirror opens up into your on-suite bathroom just take a look and through the mirror we go into Wonderland I'm not sure entirely if Alice went through a window into Wonderland but here we are within your on-suite bathroom for your master bedroom and this bathroom is kitted out to the 90s we've got two inbuilt heaters as well as lights on the wall behind me we've got a jacuzzi bathtub sunken into the floor walking shower with absolute massive rainfall shower head then there's a bidet as well as toilet just off in a private area in the corner of this bathroom what I love about this house as well is every single toilet has soft closed toilet seats you know a big fan of those then not one but two vanities massive mirror and plenty of undercounter storage this bathroom also has a special feature and I'm sure you've noticed that my cameraman is not sharing this area with me because it leads out into your very own outside private Waldorf garden area so now we need to talk about this outside area and it is such a special outside area in fact that we've waited for the sun to go down so we can showcase the lighting and the mood you're going to get when utilizing these entertainment areas on my right hand side absolutely massive pool with not only the stunning blue lighting but also you've got a tanning deck built into the pool a sun deck you can put some some tanners down there relax let your feet get a little bit cold enjoy yourself enjoy the sun and if getting into the pool is not your thing just above the pool you've got a wooden tanning deck situated in the perfect position for you to catch the best tan but that's not all we've got this incredible space here for an outside dining room table and then an outside living area just to the left there lounge area with seating and on my right is my favorite area so let's take a walk over there this down lighting leads you to your outside pool bar Caesar stone countertops plenty of seating and so much privacy that's provided by the cycads that are flaunted around your whole pool area lets you really feel like you're living in a mansion in Beverly Hills but really what is a pool bar without cracking a couple of cold ones open and underneath this while you have not one not two but four under counter fridges for you to utilize whenever you see fit but we've got the drinks where's the food we've got a gas briar right over here lit up beautifully big really if you're entertaining big groups of people this is exactly where you want to be but right over here we have a fryer a teppanyaki grill whatever you want to use it for this house has got you it really is an incredible entertainment area with so much beautifully lit areas the angles the smells the sites the plants and all the space makes this house one in a million and we have now covered the second floor but this home has got so much to talk about and so much to offer what I'd like to do is let's head down these stairs take a look at the cinema as well as the wine cell and then we're going to go upstairs and show you all the surprises upstairs has to offer so follow me and let's get going and here we are we find ourselves at the landing at the bottom of the stairs and on my right hand side a full on cinema room I mean this is an eight seat cinema room it's going to make sure I'm not going to trip over anything yeah beautiful lighting down lighting on my left hand side these sconces on my right hand side stereo sound you can see all the speakers mounted in the wall with the amp and everything else that you need right over here I mean for all you gamers out there you can connect the PlayStation to this and play on the big screen the chairs here have spaces for drinks and leg rests really this is a place where you'd never ever ever need to watch TV anywhere else again I love it I love that it's warm and also another cool feature is this leads off into your garages this home has three garages but space for four vehicles now it's hard to beat the cinema room like that but let's try and show you something a little more sophisticated for all you discerning wine people out there you've got your very own wine cellar located just behind and underneath the sunken lounge perfectly spaced out beautifully lit with these boxes all behind me for you to store all the different types of wine your heart desires I love this feature and I love

this entertainment area right here this entertainment area has its very own bathroom built in air con speakers throughout this is a theme for this home but let's talk about this roof because these blinds open up on a remote control allowing you to enjoy even the sunny days inside now right now this is customized as a pool area and something I want to mention is the owner of this home is very very willing to sell it with all of the furniture or some of the furniture so when you do schedule a viewing make sure you chat to them about what you like in this home and what you'd like to keep now right on the left hand side just below the air con you'll find your en suite bathroom and let's talk about that a sliding barn door leads on to this en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower as well as toilet and basin it gets a lot of light from that north facing window now coming from the entertainment area these glass doors lead in to another incredible surprise we've got an upstairs lounge here but really let your imagination run wild with what you'd like to do here again entertainment is the focus not only one not two not even three speakers built into the ceiling we've got running lights
