The journey begins on the ground floor, where an inviting entrance hall sets the tone for a home built for both professional productivity and multi-generational living. A climate-controlled home office or hobby room provides a quiet sanctuary, while a separate, fully self-contained three-bedroom flat—complete with its own entrance, automated gate, and double garage—offers incredible potential for rental income or extended family privacy. Guests are treated like royalty in two dedicated ground-floor suites, one of which features a private lounge and patio overlooking the established garden and its fruitful trees.
Ascend the solid black wood staircase to the first floor, where the home truly reveals its entertainer’s soul. This level is a masterclass in leisure, featuring a private cinema room with a built-in fireplace, a dedicated braai room, and a temperature-controlled swimming pool with a heat pump for year-round enjoyment. The expansive formal lounge and dining areas are framed by sea views, while a solid wood bar opens onto a sunny balcony with mountain vistas. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with a scullery, pantry, and a cozy breakfast nook, ensuring that hosting large gatherings is effortless.
The crown jewel of this residence is the 150-square-meter primary suite—a sanctuary of pure indulgence. This vast space includes a private study, a coffee lounge, and large windows that draw the ocean inward. Every detail has been considered, from the recessed floor lighting and walk-in closet to the private balcony and a lavish en-suite bathroom featuring a double shower and a deep soaking tub. An additional guest suite on this level ensures that every resident enjoys a spa-like experience, complete with its own walk-in closet and balcony access.
Beyond the aesthetics, the property is engineered for modern convenience and peace of mind. It is equipped with three-phase electricity, nine air-conditioning units, three geysers, and a comprehensive security system featuring cameras and door sensors. Water purity is guaranteed via three filtration systems, and a pre-installed gas line awaits your future culinary upgrades.
