Set against the foothills of the Twelve Apostles, this distinctive residence combines mountain and ocean views with generous living spaces, characterful architecture and a remarkable connection to its natural surroundings.
Occupying a 1,685m² erf, with 574m² under roof, the home is approached via a winding driveway bordered by terraced gardens, mature olive trees, and indigenous planting
Inside, vaulted ceilings and exposed timber beams create a sense of volume across the open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas. The kitchen features a Godin range, stone countertops and custom cabinetry, flowing naturally into the surrounding entertainment spaces. Underfloor heating and full air conditioning provide year-round comfort.
A glazed sunroom extends the living areas outdoors, opening directly onto the heated pool deck and allowing the space to be enjoyed throughout the seasons.
The accommodation comprises four bedrooms, three of which are en suite, together with a separate study. The impressive main suite is a highlight, with an open-plan bedroom and bathroom, a substantial walk-in wardrobe and a private study. Beautiful views across Hout Bay towards the ocean complete this exceptional retreat.
Outside, a swimming pool and full-length lawn are framed by established palms and landscaped gardens, with the mountain rising dramatically behind the property and the Atlantic coastline forming the wider outlook.
Perhaps the home’s most unusual feature lies beneath it: a wine cellar built directly into the mountain’s granite outcrop. Exposed rock and vaulted brickwork create a distinctive space that feels intrinsically connected to the landscape rather than simply added to the house.
Further features include a double garage and separate staff accommodation.
Located in Ruyterplaats Estate, within convenient reach of Llandudno and Cape Town, this is a home defined by its setting, generous proportions and architectural character — with mountain and ocean scenery forming an integral part of everyday living.
