Welcome to Bishopscourt.

We mean proper Bishopscourt, not those areas that fall outside the actual jurisdiction but claim it anyway.

Nothing comes cheap in the highly sought after area, and if you’re going to dream then you may as well dream big.

We’re talking eight rooms, eight bathrooms, a garage that fits six cars, a floodlit tennis court and clubhouse, and all the other bells and whistles.

More via the Property24 listing, which says this is a “once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a home of this size and quality at an unbelievable price”:

Double volume entrance hall with imposing entrance doorway and hall, with Italian marble tiled foyer and focal imported Egyptian crystal chandeliers.

Family entertainment room with focal bar area, leading out to barbecue terrace with fitted gas / wood burning braai.

Extensively fitted chef’s kitchen with gas or electric oven, integrated Siemens ovens, and large granite topped working centre island.

Gym room with stairs to “Man Cave” below.

That’s just a snapshot of the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are four en-suite rooms, a gentleman’s library with customised mahogany bookshelves and gas fireplace (Ron Burgundy would approve), a pyjama lounge, and a “safe room”.

The home also comes with a billiards room, an eight-seater cinema room, a wine cellar with space for 10 000 bottles (perfect for the apocalypse or the next booze sales ban), and an electricity generator.

Outside, there’s a 25-metre infinity pool, a workshop, wraparound security with an Intellibus system, and staff accommodation comprising two en-suite bedrooms with showers, lounges, and kitchenettes.

In other words, it is stacked.

The listing says it’s a “deceased estate” and “this home must sell”.

Perhaps you can get away with a bid that’s slightly lower than R56 million then.

Best of luck to you.
