Full-Title 3 Bedroom Luxury on the Water’s Edge: A Stream, a Pool, and Not a Single Reason to Leave

Hello there, future homeowner!

Allow me to introduce myself: I am one of the highly sought-after full-title homes in The Lakes, tucked into the prestigious Lombardy Estate, with a gently flowing stream out front that does all the scenery work so I don’t have to.

Step through my front door and prepare to be a little dramatic about it. The dining area, kitchen and lounge flow together in one impressive open-plan space, filled with light and designed to make the most of what’s outside. My modern kitchen comes equipped with two Bosch stoves, one five-plate gas and one electric, so whether you cook with flame or prefer the precision of electric, nobody in this house has to compromise (and the two-cook household finally has a peace treaty).

Stacking doors in the kitchen and dining area, and again in the lounge, fold away completely to the garden and patio, so the line between indoors and out becomes purely theoretical. Pour a glass of something nice, watch the stream drift past. Then there’s the private swimming pool, for those who like to relax and those who like to be seen relaxing.

Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms each have their own en-suite bathroom, and every bedroom is air-conditioned, so the family’s morning negotiations over who gets the shower are officially a thing of the past, and so are the midsummer arguments over the thermostat. A dedicated study nook completes the upper level, ideal for working from home.

And then there’s the estate itself — because a home is only as good as the world it sits in. Lombardy Estate is widely regarded as one of the safest estates in Gauteng, with tranquil dams, lush green parklands, scenic walking and running trails, and tennis courts woven into a countryside-inspired setting that makes you forget you’re minutes from everything Pretoria East has to offer.
