EXCLUSIVE TO SOTHEBY'S INTERNATIONAL....FEATURED IN THE NEW YORK TIMES !!!
Welcome to our secluded property located on the top of the world in Cape Town's Hout Bay area. Surrounded by majestic mountains, our house offers breathtaking views of the Orange Kloof reserve and the valley below, yet it is just a few minutes away from the ocean and the central district where you can find restaurants and stores.
The house is made from natural eco materials, such as full moon-harvested pine floors, iIoko structural beams and finishes, and Zimbabwean granite, and boasts a spacious and light-filled interior. Originally designed by famous South African architect Wolf, the house was renovated in 2022 to offer comfort in harmony with the surrounding nature.
The house features a master bedroom with a 270-degree breathtaking panoramic view and two smaller bedrooms with views of the mountains and eucalyptus trees. A spacious office/studio offers a tranquil space to work, read, listen to music, or take one of the mountain trails, while the fully equipped yoga room/gym is perfect for staying fit during your stay.
Relax in the spacious living room and dining area, next to the fireplace and the grand piano. Music lovers will enjoy our luxurious stereo system with a collection of over 1000 vinyl' while kids will enjoy the interactive Xbox and slumber parties in the studio.
Our spacious outdoor area is perfect for soaking up the sun or enjoying a meal with loved ones. The outside dining area overlooks the valley and offers a stunning view of the Table Mountain. The outdoor kitchen is equipped with a professional-grade grill (both gas and charcoal), known locally as a 'braai', for an exquisite dining experience. Lounge areas are also available for you to relax and unwind, while the eco pool fed by the mountain spring water is perfect for a refreshing dip. Sip your morning coffee looking over mountains and coy fishpond.
For a true retreat: head up the mountain to our gazebo, which can be reached through various trails surrounded by fynbos, protea bushes, and seasonal flowers. This beautiful spot is perfect for meditation, watching the sunset with a glass of wine from the neighboring vineyard and listen to sugar birds’ songs or doing yoga.
Our house also features a fully-equipped guest house where our domestic employees live, with a maid to take care of the house and cook for you if necessary. She is a trained chef who can prepare indulgent ceviche from locally caught fish or Bonsmara beef freshly delivered by a local eco-farm. The gardener will also take care of your car and bring fresh eggs and produce from our garden.
Our house is just 5 minutes away from Hout Bay harbour and the beach, and 7 minutes away from one of the most famous Llubdudno beaches. We are also in close proximity to major attractions and tourist destinations, like Camps Bay and Chapmans Peak.
Come and experience the peace and tranquility of our mountain retreat, where you can recharge your body and mind, entertain your friends and play, or even compose music or soak up the sun.
