Paarl is a beautiful, historic town outside of Cape Town and this home is perched on a hillside in the Paarl Valley. When you see the pictures below, though, you could very easily think you were somewhere on a hillside in Provence.
The house has a beautiful setting amongst the vineyards.
The kitchen cabinets are a pretty blue grey colour with a contrasting centre island.
The kitchen has a dining area and leads out to the pretty garden.
There is a separate laundry and scullery through the doorway at the back.
The comfortable living room has a beautiful fireplace and arched doors leading out onto the patio.
The home boasts beautiful screeded floors and plastered walls.
It has such a spacious and airy feel to it.
A sitting area with a lovely view in the main bedroom upstairs.
A beautiful bathroom.
Red roof tiles and lavender - so typical of the Provencal countryside.
A seating area with fireplace in the background overlook the pool.
The pool is in a beautiful sheltered courtyard.
I love the arches and the stone. It gives this newly built house the feeling that it has been around for centuries.
The beautiful front facade of the house.
I would love to hear what you think of this home.
Till next time

I enjoy spending my vacation in Paarl, such a scenic setting. Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon, absolutely love the house, would you mind to do a fashion shoot in the house? I am a third year student looking for an elegant home, the décor is stunning and will suit the elegant evening garments perfectly.
