Where waterside luxury meets mountainous serenity, this stylish villa has the best of both worlds. Situated on the slopes of Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain, find yourself nestled in a green enclave of Camps Bay, enjoying the breathtaking blue views of the ocean. Designed for relaxed yet elegant living, this stylish and sweeping retreat encompasses sleek comfortable furnishing, the perfect setting for making group memories under the stars. Beyond the extensive villa, you can also enjoy the privacy of a fully equipped self-contained cottage for any additional guests you may welcome. For those evenings in, enjoy the picturesque fiery red sunset views over Lion’s Head from your outdoor dining table and swimming pool, or the indoor punctuation of sophisticated avant-garde artwork, in keeping with the state-of-the-art entertainment system, for those cooler nights chatting around the fireplace. The mountainous views carry into the master bedroom and beyond, where the South African natural beauty inspires the decor with large walk-in showers and luxurious bathtubs, all surrounded by accents of natural slate and calming neutral colours. Whilst you won’t need to leave this quiet six-bedroom free-flowing marvel, you are just a moment's stroll away from the bustling atmosphere of the... sought-after Camps Bay coast. Sandy shores and an enviable selection of elegant restaurants and cocktail bars are on your doorstep.
