6-Bedroom Georgian Manor for Sale on Mount Street, Sandton

Some homes have a way of hitting pause on your busy day the moment you step in. This Georgian manor on Mount Street, right in the heart of Bryanston, Sandton, honestly did that to me. Before I even finished coming up the sweeping drive, I slowed down just looking at how much space you get here. Almost two acres of gardens all around you and these huge old trees swaying in the breeze. You stand on the verandah and you can see straight out to the Sandton skyline. Sometimes you catch the sunset turning the buildings orange behind the pool and the lawns and you just want to stay out there a little longer.

Inside, everything feels both modern and classic. You come through this grand old porte cochere and suddenly there's this triple volume hallway where the French oak floors always look warm underfoot. There's a sense that a lot of conversations have started at the bottom of those double staircases and maybe a few dances too on the nights that spill into morning. One thing you'll feel straight away—there are so many places to have people over. The living spaces kind of flow into one another and then right outside. All those glass doors fold open to the patio which honestly just feels ready for an easy evening. Someone standing over the built in braai or sliding a pizza into the oven while the sound of kids in the pool drifts in from the garden. You also get this big wooden deck where, honestly, it feels pretty perfect for lazy Sundays or a simple breakfast while the world wakes up.

The formal dining room lets you have those bigger get togethers around a roaring fire that flickers into the little courtyard right off it. The kitchen here is something special. I mean, there's a nine burner gas cooker right at the center and loads of space for real meals, not just heating something up. You've got proper Miele and Bosch appliances everywhere, a steam oven that actually gets used, and even a scullery and laundry so you can keep the busy stuff out of sight. There's a guest suite downstairs with its own garden entrance so someone can stay and it just feels private and comfortable. I sat for a while in the airconditioned entertainment room thinking how much fun a sports night would be at the wooden bar with everyone gathered round, and the billiard table looks like it's seen a few good games.

Downstairs, you find a wine cellar made for actual tastings, not just storage. You walk in, there's a table, everything chilled, even a cloakroom. On the opposite side of the house is a study tucked away for when you need a bit of quiet. Walk upstairs and you realize every bedroom has its own personality but all of them feel peaceful. Six bedrooms in total with new and generous bathrooms. The master suite really is set apart—glass doors open onto a balcony with all those city lights, and the fireplace there just feels right for curling up at the end of a cold Johannesburg evening. You get a triple shower, a dressing room bigger than most bedrooms, plus a private study so you can leave paperwork behind at the end of the day. Three more suites with their own balconies sit across a lounge where it's easy to imagine movie nights or just hanging out.

You'll notice the home runs on its own solar system, so no worries about interruptions. There's borehole water, double glazing, and all the high spec touches like home automation and air conditioning. Six cars fit in the garages easily. There's even proper staff accommodation, a serious guard house, and probably the best security you could ask for in Bryanston. You see kids biking past in the evenings sometimes and the air just feels quiet. You're never far from Sandton but it honestly feels like your own little corner of Johannesburg. Plus, if you want more space, the land next door is up for grabs too.
