House in Steyn City, Midrand

Urbantrend Properties & Developments are pleased to present to you this Top Billing featured property in Steyn City: as a beautiful modern French contemporary house of 800 m², situated on a green belt, distributed on two floors.
Sharing a passion for sustainable design and the artistic aspect of architecture, Architect-Derick Britz (Studious architect) brings a detail-oriented approach to the building design incorporating wooden cladding front, steel natural stone, and solid oak shutters.
To decrease energy demand and enhance building-site synergies, the project uses sustainable strategies to create a shaded place, to save all the trees on-site, to capture but shelter from the sun and breeze, and to maximize views. To make the house more modern, the owners updated the house with the goal of creating spaces for living and dining with views between them, connect the indoors and outdoors, and create a kitchen that would be the center of the home. Dining and gathering can take place "anywhere and everywhere" on the first floor.
This automated BNO home system has ensured that the lighting, sound, security, and curtains incorporated within the house are made for the homeowner to feel at ease. As the hub of all activity in the house, the kitchen is equipped with a bar fridge, ice maker, freestanding oven, small integrated refrigerators, as well as a large walk-in refrigerator. A bar with an additional airconditioned wine cellar adds value to the abode. The living space is spacious with terrace doors, windows, skylights, welcoming in abundant cross ventilation and natural light. An office with built-in units and an all-equipped home theatre with an automated screen can be found in the home.
The additional viewing platform on top of the house embraces screed flooring that floats across the tree's terrace, creating a unifying transition to the outdoors. A pajama lounge is located on the second floor with five en-suite bedrooms, each with its own bathroom that has underfloor heating.
Intelligently designed smart envelope, solar panels powering a battery backup system running the house for up to 4-5 hours at a time; an automatic irrigation system, built-in vacuum system, central air conditioning, water-saving fixtures, and filtration system complete the balanced design.
