The Ocean View Mansion - A Sensational Masterpiece In Bantry Bay

The Ocean View

Perched high on the slopes of Table Mountain, this exceptional property offers sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and is embraced by the serene beauty of a surrounding forest of magnificent Bluegum Trees.

Nestled in the exclusive and mostly wind-free enclave of Bantry Bay, this architectural gem, designed by Internationally renowned architect Macio Miszewski for VDMMA (Van der Merwe Miszewski Architects), offers a luxurious lifestyle with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Seaboard.

This Residence unfolds across several levels to adapt to the site's dramatic topography. It features 5 spacious bedrooms, 6 elegant bathrooms, an expansive open-plan living area incorporating the lounge, dining, and kitchen, as well as a study and other lounge areas with gas fireplaces. On the ground level you will find the pool & TV/media room, a luxurious home SPA with both steam room and sauna leading directly onto the outdoor pool area and the lush lower garden. A dedicated studio space with shower and toilet are perfect for yoga or other fitness activities that further enhances the functionality of the home. There is a separate staff flat with kitchen, lounge and 2 bedrooms.

The design philosophy behind this private retreat centers on maximizing the relationship with the natural environment. Full-height glazing encloses all living spaces, offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding forest and ocean. To mitigate Cape Town’s climate, the house is screened with full-height South African Redwood steel-framed shutters, mounted on the external perimeter of the verandas that wrap the two primary elevations. These shutters provide both protection and privacy, while allowing seamless access to the verandas from every level.

A striking feature of the home is the central three-story open void, which houses vertical circulation and connecting bridges. A timber and steel walkway links this open void with the forest below, culminating in an elevated platform situated high over the forest floor. There is an impressive outdoor lounge area with BBQ and dining area under the threes. Positioned within the branches of the trees, this deck creates an immersive experience, allowing residents to feel at one with the surrounding forest.!
This home is a bold, yet harmonious, fusion of modern architecture and its natural surroundings, offering a rare and privileged living experience with uninterrupted ocean views in one of the most sought-after locations in Cape Town.
