Redwood and shale, concrete and granite frame views across to Sea Point and Robben Island from this one-of-a-kind contemporary home overlooking Bantry Bay. It was built to suit the site, with a lily pond in the courtyard that echoes the ocean, and a U-shaped layout that brings to mind the curve of a beach. Drive 6 minutes to a white-sand beach and 10 minutes to the center of Cape Town.

The villa surrounds a square of grass perfect for lawn games by day and chats around the firepit by night. Step through the glass-walled great room that borders the courtyard and onto a sun-splashed terrace with an infinity pool and alfresco living and dining areas facing the ocean.

Designed by local architecture firm SAOTA as an open-plan family retreat, the villa is quick to reveal itself—you can see nearly all of the great room and pool terrace at once. A massive granite bar anchors the living area, matched by a redwood ceiling that soars over the dining area and fully equipped kitchen. The separate family room is tucked on the other side of the courtyard for a cozy feel.

It’s less than a 10-minute drive to both Clifton Beach and Camps Bay Beach, popular with locals and visitors alike for their photogenic sand and surf, and restaurant-lined shores. A 10-minute drive will bring you to the Cape Town city center and attractions like the V&A Waterfront.
