This is, quite simply, a modern masterpiece of architecture meeting one of the most spectacular views in South Africa. Could it be your new home? Located on the sea side of Nettleton Road (just 50 properties are located on this prestigious, sought-after cul-de-sac) in Clifton, Cape Town, this appears at first to be an immaculate glass box. The structure is designed to feel simple and effortless, while optimising the space and the view for a dramatic, absorbing home for a very lucky owner.

The street entrance is subtle and intriguing

Upon arrival in the property, the main feature is the wide, open-plan living room with glass doors large enough to allow the stunning view to become part of the room itself. The glazing has been imported from Germany and the slider system from Switzerland, facilitating the seamless dimensions and delivering a beautiful finish. The view was designed by nature…

The living space opens on to the terrace area and the infinity pool beyond

This main large space encompasses dining, lounging and cooking areas, the kitchen finished with such elegance and minimalist style that your guests may not even spot it.

Elegant, stylish kitchen with all the latest features for ease

While the open-plan space suits entertaining, there are also cosier spaces on the ground floor for solitude or concentration, such as the study or the comfortable TV room where you can catch up on your favourite series.

Cosier yet still spacious TV room for more intimate time

The main living space opens straight onto the sun terrace and the glorious infinity pool, with 20m of lapping space where you can enjoy a view of Clifton and the Twelve Apostles each time you lift your head to breathe.

The sun terrace and pool area seem to hang over the edge of the bay

There are five spacious bedroom suites within this impressive property, all of which are ocean-facing and boast well-positioned windows to maximise those extraordinary views and allow in light.

Wake up to a view you will never tire of

The bathrooms are all superbly finished and provide luxurious features in a minimalist design, continuing the theme of this property. There are multiple bathing options, with modern rain showers and standalone tubs, the latter of which are carefully positioned for a sense of sea while soaking thanks to large windows.

There are also two WCs for guests to use when visiting your property and staff accommodation on-site, easing the experience of having help around the house. A home-gym completes the package, this one boasting more glittering sea views and plenty of comfortable, bright space to have your work-out in solitude.

More spectacular views await in the home-gym, which has plenty of space for yoga in addition to machines

The whole property is equipped with air-conditioning and underfloor heating for comfort in all seasons, while a diesel generator and solar panels, plus an inverter with back-up batteries, provide some peace of mind for power. There is also state-of-the-art security and a double garage to keep vehicles secure.

The house is located in Clifton, one of the most sought-after locations in the Cape Town area

It’s little wonder that Clifton is one of the most sought-after areas to live near Cape Town. Just fifteen minutes drive from central Cape Town, residents enjoy proximity to two world-class beaches and their adjoining towns (Clifton and Camps Bay) and an easy drive to the iconic Twelve Apostles Mountains. Cape Town International Airport is around 20km away.
