About this property

Positioned on an elevated stand in the heart of Constantia, this exceptional thatched villa is a rare 'one of a kind' residence that combines Cape grandeur with contemporary luxury. The double-volume entrance hall — framed by dramatic steel-and-glass pivot doors and patterned terrazzo tile — sets the tone for the impeccable craftsmanship found throughout. Engineered timber floors, exposed wood rafters, bespoke steel-framed glazing, and natural stone surfaces create a warm yet sophisticated palette across every living space.

On the ground floor, an interconnected series of formal and informal rooms includes a lounge with fireplace, a formal dining room, a state-of-the-art kitchen with fully integrated appliances, and a family room with fireplace that flows seamlessly to a wide undercover entertainment patio. Wall-to-wall sliding steel-and-glass doors dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior, drawing the eye towards the garden, pool, and pool house. A music and sunroom with an industrial ceiling captures panoramic mountain and valley views, while a walk-in air-conditioned wine cellar, a study, guest cloakroom, storeroom, and mudroom connecting to the double garage with automated stable doors complete this level.

A bespoke staircase with glass balustrade ascends to five luxurious en-suite bedroom suites, each benefiting from exposed timber rafters and generous glazing that frames breathtaking mountain, valley, and vineyard vistas. The main suite features a fireplace, walk-in dressing room, and a full contemporary en-suite bathroom.

Outdoor living is equally impressive: a wood-fired hot tub, a pool house with pizza oven and cloakroom, a volleyball court, and a separate staff suite with its own bedroom, lounge, and kitchen. The basement level accommodates a recreation and media room with gym and shower suite. Further infrastructure includes garaging for up to four cars, a borehole with full irrigation, a 10 000-litre storage tank, WiFi connectivity, and a comprehensive security system.

Restaurants and delis such as Stock & Stable, Jonkershuis Constantia, and Hartlief Constantia Deli are within approximately 700 m, and the Constantia wine estates and Huis-en-Bos Greenbelt nature walks are on the doorstep — placing this villa at the very epicentre of Cape Town's most celebrated lifestyle quarter.
