 Welcome to Waterfall Country Estate, an upmarket residential estate located in the heart of Johannesburg. A stone throw away from sands and with easy access to all the amenities this suburb has to offer Mall of Africa being one of the most famous. Behind me a home designed by the architect Derek Brits and we're gonna be taking you through this four bedroom, four and a half bathroom incredibly designed artfully decorated family home. This is the private property home shopper show, my name is Chad Raveiros, welcome home. Now coming through the beautiful wooden facade you're faced with this fully glass door providing you the privacy without taking away that stunning architectural elements of what floor to ceiling glass looks like. Now as I mentioned this home was designed specifically for the plot it was put on and it has been done so well I can easily say this is probably one of the most beautifully designed homes we've ever showcased on the home shopper show. However what I do need to mention and I'm sure a lot of you are thinking about it is the price point. So this home is going for 15,999,000 which I think for what you're getting is an absolute steal. Now I've positioned myself specifically to showcase this stunning spiral staircase with the metal and wood design elements that you'll see flow throughout the home but just to my left is something super cool and we've never seen this before. It almost gives you the feeling of standing in one of those castle turrets but so much warmer and so much more welcoming. A perfect reading look and what you can see it has been designed as is also a wine cellar. The face brick makes it look so warm and welcoming and this wood flooring again giving you a little bit of variation from the clean white tile throughout the rest of the home. Then we've got these two ladders reaching all the way up into the cylindrical turret letting you grab wine and we all know how much I like my wine. But coming through this area you'll also find the guest wing of the home so you've got a bedroom as well as a bathroom there and we need to take a look at it. So come on through. So starting off let's talk about this guest bedroom. Beautifully sized specifically for a guest wing and then what makes this absolutely killer is you've got this whole glass fronted area here. Again it could be another reading nook. You've got this armchair perfectly placed with some down lighting and what down lighting you'll see throughout the house. I'm such a sucker for really nice lighting elements and this house has it in abundance. But as I mentioned floor to ceiling glass all the way here, sliding door leading out onto a green space that is overlooked by nearly every single section of this house. They've fought so much about light and air and how to incorporate this in this home and it was spectacularly done. But here we are bedroom really nicely sized. You've got space here for your guest's clothing or your clothing if you'd like to use this as one of the bedrooms in the home and then just over here with the easy access is your guest bathroom. So coming on in what you'll notice immediately is your single vanity raised up off of the countertop, under counter storage on the right hand side. You've there got a hidden system and a soft-closing toilet seat and then a walk-in shower with three rectangular shaped windows opening outside onto that green area. And now that we've covered the guest wing let's take a look what the upstairs of this spiral staircase has to offer. Now coming up the spiral staircase you find yourself on a landing stretching across the entry hall on my right hand side you've got a stunning view of that green area and right here on my left hand side you can come on to this wrought-iron balcony overlooking the reading look in the wine cellar or wine turret should I say it is really such a cool feature a little Easter egg and a place where you can just overlook how stunningly done and how incredible the lighting is in this room. Now crossing your bridge again you've got floor to ceiling glass looking or overlooking your front door and yeah you are within the office area. Now this office area has got a few really really cool features. One is and this is throughout the house there are seven zones for the speaker system you see in the ceiling we've got those exposed metal eye beams running across the ceiling and another feature or design element you'll see throughout the house is this tilted or slanted ceiling with glass all the way over there as well as as you can see over there letting in so much natural light and what a feature it's something we never see but incredibly spacious office more of that face-brick behind sitting here doing some work what a nice place to be but when you need a break and all of us do need breaks maybe you need some fresh air just over here sliding glass door leading out to your very own upstairs patio some covering from the beautiful wood slats above us and then looking down into their green space as I did say so many rooms in this home have access to green spaces really making you feel relaxed and one with nature. Now another cool feature is if I just hop right over this inbuilt seating area this is a very nice touch wrapping all the way around they are those windows overlooking the kitchen area as well as the formal dining room and lounge area and you can see right over here we've got some wooden privacy slats really shielding you off from the neighbors and giving you privacy when you are out and relaxing and that is another thing you'll see throughout the house. Another really cool feature and you can see how incredibly well this home has been designed is if you hop up on the seating area just over there you can see that roof line with all those windows and those windows are looking in to your master bedroom and master bathroom and we're gonna be there in a moment but how nicely designed is this home but we've spoken about the sub-stairs area and there was a lot to speak about let's head right back down that spiral staircase and see what the rest of the home has to offer and now we are back downstairs passing that often mentioned green area floor to ceiling glass those I beam designs that expose metal designs are so nice but yeah we are within the living area take a look again at this slanted ceiling was all of that glass living in that natural light what an incredibly designed home we've got down lighting on the room of the bulkhead ceiling and you can see that is exposed concrete but let's start first with the kitchen and let's talk design we've got these stunning floating tables concrete yet matching the bulkhead ceilings above and then this perfectly designed dark countertop all of your food prep needs we've got stunning downlights hanging from the ceiling and then plenty of under counter storage as well as cupboards we've also got another area around the back where you can do some more food prep but then let's talk appliances smeg gas stove we've got an oven right over here also smeg as well as a microwave and then if I wrap all the way back here one of my favorite machines the coffee machine then you've got your small chef's sink and let's take a look at the scullery area at whatever sinks there are your double sink here with your water filter stunning faucets again more cupboards right over there and all of these cupboards over here and plenty of space under counter for your appliances another really cool thing is just after the store you've got a huge sink outside in case you need to do any washing up if you're going trail biking if you're going running and you get a bit muddy you can use the sink outside and not dirty your home and the reason I mention this is this estate has 35 kilometers of jogging trails of riding trails it has its very own waterfall lake as well as a gym clubhouse restaurant as well as two schools guys I cannot stop talking about how well-equipped waterfall country estate is and your home is right there in the security and with easy access to all of those amenities now standing here by the breakfast nook we've got these sliding stackable glass doors that move off all the way to the side again giving you access to a brand new outdoor courtyard like I mentioned green areas are so important when it comes to this home oh man and it's a really nice place to be I will admit but there's so much more to talk about let's move in to the formal dining room area it easily fits an 8 seat a dining room table with plenty of space in between we've got again stunning down lighting now this down lighting I have to say it'll probably be designed after the rest of the home with all the exposed metal gives you that warehouse flavor I really like that it's been incorporated and it turns this into a centerpiece into an art piece without cluttering the home up and right over here you've got your formal sitting room area or your lounge area gas fireplace taking up this whole feature wall again the down lighting throughout the bulkhead speakers in the ceiling so much space but what is space without access to the outside wooden decking leads you across into your bar area but how awesome is this guys you've got trees growing out of the deck and it feels like you indoors but you're not you can sit down relax on some of these sun decks oh this is beautifully done I cannot actually explain how nice it must be to live here guys sit down relax stackable glass doors leading into all the different areas you might need but I feel like I need a drink and if you do need a drink and you're in this home right over here fully equipped bar area so much space there for a place to sit down relax if you are the beautiful bar area but if you want to be indoors so much space there for another lounge suite as you can see it is a decked out in case the weather maybe is not cooperating with you you can sit right over here and yet is the bar area grill right over here plenty of space for the alcohol you might need you can mix it up the down lighting again is exquisite and you can carry on all the way through to your pool come take a look at this pool guys going down these stairs you've got a huge rectangular pool running the length and heated and going underneath this bridge how epic is that when have we ever seen something like this I love that it's been done I love that it's hidden and I actually can't say enough on how cool it is that all of this is open it is completely open no doors yell whatsoever and the whole house just flows through but again more to show you so come run on this side with me this year can be closed off so as I mentioned if the weather is not cooperating with you the rest of the house will still stay dry and that leads us to the TV room on my left hand side you've got some flotation blinds you can open and close and the reason you need the blinds is because this TV room the courtyard the kitchen how epic is that I mean taking a walk to the kitchen you don't even need to do it inside you can run through one of your many courtyards but beautifully equipped lounge area you've got a inbuilt desk right here in case you need to do some work plenty of space for as big a TV as you can ever want and that design element of the slope ceiling does continue we'll be seeing more of that and on this side of the lounge area you pass those comfy looking beanies here is the rest of the pool I can think of a lot of people who quite enjoy doing laps underneath that little bridge but I think it's our time to walk this way and take a journey across it now on this side of the house these sliding doors in the way they slid you might want to use this as a little jumping board into the pool so this section of the house is where all of the bedrooms are located you've got three bedrooms here two downstairs and the master suite the creme de la creme located upstairs so we're gonna leave that for last now the owners of the house did a little design challenge when it came to designing the two bedrooms of this house and the wife did the girls room and her husband did the boys room and they decided to have a competition to see who won in terms of design yeah and I think both of them drew because they are done so well cupboards all the way across this side of the room glossy finishes really up-market look really nice sliding door leading out onto a wooden deck and then your backyard plenty of double-pane glass they're insulating the different rooms and right over here on sweet bathroom let's take a look at it now one of the coolest things I think we've ever featured on the show when it comes to bath tabs is this little bean bath tab you got your faucets built into the wall and you can sit and relax in this really cool looking bath tub it does look comfortable walk in shower behind me heater towel rack lighting coming in from the windows located all the way up giving you lots of privacy and then windows in front of
