About this property
One of only three homes remaining at De Meule, an exclusive new residential development set in the charming historic village of Philadelphia, Western Cape — just 20 minutes from Cape Town. Developed by Anton Mulder, this intimate gated complex comprises 11 uniquely designed freestanding homes connected by picturesque cobblestone internal roads, offering a rare blend of privacy and community living.
This generously proportioned home of 383 m² presents a confident architectural statement: a crisp white rendered façade with a classic pitched blue metal roof, louvred ventilation panels, and aluminium-framed double-glazed windows and doors. A mature eucalyptus tree anchors the rear garden, which enjoys an open, sun-drenched aspect.
Inside, the open-plan living and dining area is finished to a contemporary standard — large-format light tiles underfoot, recessed LED downlights, floor-to-ceiling linen curtains, and a built-in fireplace that anchors the lounge. Stack-and-slide aluminium doors connect the living zone directly to a generously sized covered patio (braai room) fitted with a built-in brick braai, exposed-timber pergola ceiling, and paved brick flooring — perfect for year-round entertaining.
A broad internal corridor leads to three bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the garage count (three garages per the CSV data) provides exceptional off-street parking and storage.
Philadelphia, established in 1863, is celebrated as a serene weekend-escape destination. DROOM @Die Meul restaurant and the beloved Pepper Tree Art Stable & Coffee Shop — both within 150 m — ensure café culture and dining are steps away. Philadelphia Primary School is roughly 220 m from the gate, making this an equally practical family address.
