    About this property

    • Set directly on the Atlantic Ocean, with views towards Table Mountain, The Olive Tree Villa occupies an exceptional position at the secluded southern end of Pearl Bay, offering remarkable privacy, space and spectacular sunsets.

      Designed by Gavin Maddock and completed in 2019, this approximately 480m² residence on a prime 759m² beachfront erf combines contemporary architecture with its extraordinary West Coast setting. Two interconnected pavilions frame a protected central courtyard, while off-shutter concrete, glass, zinc, timber and dark Cemcrete create a restrained architectural language grounded in the landscape.

      Floor-to-ceiling glazing opens the principal living spaces onto generous Atlantic-facing terraces. The sheltered courtyard, with its heated salt-chlorinated pool and magnificent mature olive tree, provides a private outdoor sanctuary.

      Four beautifully appointed bedroom suites include spectacular penthouse-style principal accommodation with an almost double-volume living space, private terrace and elevated plunge pool overlooking the beach and ocean.

      Exceptional craftsmanship is evident throughout, with veneered-oak joinery, marble, Iroko timber and finely resolved detailing. Features include a private lift, double garage, study, staff accommodation, solar and battery system, fibre and comprehensive security.

      Seclusion without isolation, this is a rare architectural coastal retreat within easy reach of Cape Town, with an established history of income generation from luxury guest suites.
      Most furniture is available by separate negotiation.

    Additional information

    • Yzerfontein offers one of the Western Cape's most compelling coastal lifestyles: expansive beaches, protected natural surroundings, a powerful sense of privacy and convenient access to Cape Town and Cape Town International airport, approximately an hour away. Yzerfontein itself enjoys the character of a peaceful, close-knit coastal community, supported by active community and private security structures. The Villa's secluded position and discreet architectural treatment add another layer of privacy and reassurance. It is, in many respects, seclusion without isolation.
