The kitchen & living area

At the heart of the kitchen are sleek gas hobs and an electric Smeg oven, offering precise temperature control and efficient cooking. A stylish kitchen island complements the space, providing a functional and inviting area for meal preparation and gathering. The wooden floors are a contemporary build that is set off against the original high wood ceilings.

The fire bowl in the courtyard offers a space for braaing, ‘kuier-ing’ and star-gazing.
