    About this property

    • The highest inhabited property on the slopes of Table Mountain is where you will find this remarkable, eco-friendly, energy efficient home. It is surrounded by magnificent mature trees which have been carefully selected to enhance privacy whilst giving you a 180-degree view from Table Bay to Gordon's Bay and back to Kirstenbosch Gardens.

      Designed by award winning architects Van der Merwe Miszewski and completed by renowned architect Alex Stewart, who have created a unique family home which is a combination of art and engineering, imagination, respect for the environment, vision in design and passion for perfection.

      Forest House:

      The home is a masterful inter-mixture of wood, glass and stone and is equipped with state-of-the-art fixtures and fittings: imported light fittings, Brazilian granite floors, wood panelling and excellent security with cameras monitored by Omnivision, a Paradox alarm system with access control, perimeter beams and electric fencing.

      There are 3 bedroom suites, each with its own dressing room and bathroom (the study could be a 4th bedroom en-suite). The main bedroom suite is air conditioned and enjoys its own private lounge – perfect for relaxation. Spacious double volume open plan living rooms with floor to ceiling glass sliding doors and electronically operated screens invite the outside in. Internal American shutters and external wooden shutters add a layer of comfort while the modern kitchen fitted with Miele appliances and scullery, 80m2 games room, sauna, bathroom, wine cellar, fully fitted laundry and double garaging with extra storage space provide a luxurious lifestyle.

      Forest Pavillon:

      There are 2 further units built in aesthetic harmony with the main residence – ideal for dual living. They offer open plan living areas, each with a bedroom en-suite and fully fitted kitchens and covered patios. One also has a fitted study or 2nd bedroom. The units share a spectacular entertainment roof terrace with breathtaking views, complete with fitted seating and fire pit. The private glass conservatory is used as a work from home office.
