Only those with great levels of entrepreneurial zeal seem to want a home that is just a few steps away from their bustling workspace that sees constant rush.

It is the lower level that has been used as the café here and this has a more open, inviting ambiance. The interior here flows into the garden outside thanks to the use of dark, framed glass windows. On the upper level you have the gorgeous home that has twice the footprint of the lower level thanks to extensive use of cantilevered spaces. A protruding gabled wooden addition elevates the visual appeal of the residence / café further with its classic and cozy panache.RELATED: Don Café House: Inspired Interiors Transport You Inside A Sack Full Of Coffee Beans!Wood and concrete along with cantilevered gable structure give the cafe home a unique lookFramed glass windows of the cafe with a view of the gardenGabled and wooden upper level creates shaded outdoor space belowGabled u...
