6 BEDROOM FURNISHED CONSTANTIA HOMESTEAD

Historic Constantia Homestead | Circa 1890
Timeless Heritage, Modern Comfort & Refined Country Living

Available July to October 2025, and again for long-term lease from April 2026, this rare Constantia estate offers a unique chance to reside in a beautifully restored Cape Dutch home. Originally built in 1890 as a wine cellar and produce depot for local farms, it blends historic charm with elegant modern living. Set in a peaceful, wind-sheltered setting, the property is surrounded by manicured gardens and mature trees, showcasing timeless Cape Dutch grandeur.

Main Residence:
The heart of the home is a fully equipped farmhouse-style kitchen, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, designed for both relaxed family cooking and effortless entertaining. It flows into a series of beautifully curated living areas, including:

A formal dining room with a bespoke 12-seater table, perfect for dinner parties and long, shared meals.
A formal lounge with a feature fireplace for cool Cape evenings, beautifully furnished and appointed.
A comfortable TV lounge, ideal for informal family moments.
A light-filled conservatory with stacking doors that open fully to the garden and pool terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience.
From the conservatory, step onto a sun-drenched terrace outfitted with luxurious loungers and casual seating, where the 15-metre heated salt lap pool takes center stage - ideal for both morning laps and leisurely afternoons under Constantia’s skies.

Accommodation:
The home offers four spacious en-suite bedrooms in the main house, three of which are located upstairs beneath a meticulously preserved open thatch roof - a beautiful nod to the home’s heritage. The fourth bedroom is located downstairs and offers a truly unique experience, having been converted from the original wine cellar, with arched ceilings and rich historical texture.
All bedrooms are fitted with air-conditioning units offering both heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort.

All bedrooms and living areas are fitted with air-conditioning units offering both heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort.

Garden Pod Cottages:
Separate from the main residence are two fully furnished Pods with stylish en-suite bathrooms. Perfectly suited for visiting guests, staff accommodation, or extended family, this space offers both privacy and flexibility without compromising on style. A private deck overlooking the pool and surrounded by lush shrubs offer a tranquil space.
