Burnished Earth is more than a home; it’s a place where generations of memories have been made, laughter shared and family bonds deepened.
Owned by the same family for many years, this residence has grown and evolved along with its owners. As their children grew, so did Burnished Earth, with thoughtful expansions and additions that transformed the home into an ideal sanctuary for family life and celebration.
Over time, the owners acquired the neighboring property, extending their home to include a spacious entertainment area, a gym and a self-contained apartment for their eldest son. With four children who have all grown up here, Burnished Earth has hosted countless water polo matches in the pool, lively birthday parties and joyful family gatherings. Now, with the kids having moved abroad, the owners are ready to pass this beloved home to a new family who will cherish it as they have—creating their own treasured moments in this welcoming and beautiful space.
A harmonious blend of comfort and nature nestled into the Constantia Valley, Burnished Earth captures the essence of its surroundings with breathtaking mountain views and lush gardens that seem to flow naturally from every corner of the home.
Expansive glass doors and windows bring the outdoors in, allowing light to fill the rooms and creating a seamless connection to the landscape.
