Set at the foot of Table Mountain in the picturesque enclave of Fresnaye, this one-of-a-kind penthouse villa perfectly captures the striking magnitude of its setting, from Lion’s Head and the surrounding mountains to panoramic Atlantic Ocean views that stretch beyond the horizon.

Inside, no luxury is unaccounted for, with every detail of the home carefully considered, including custom furnishings and finishes crafted by some of South Africa’s most celebrated artisans.

There is a sense of grand theatricality to the penthouse, which is accessed directly via an elevator. As the doors open, the home presents a series of generous open-plan living spaces—an art-filled lobby, wine cellar, informal lounge, dining room, kitchen, bedroom suites and two balconies—while the level above comprises a second kitchen, formal living and dining rooms, a steam room, an outdoor shower, and a bar, all leading out onto a magnificent, sun-soaked pool deck with loungers and an alfresco seating area.
