Location

Pringle Bay is a secluded seaside village nestled in the Kogelberg Biosphere, South Africa’s only UNESCO-proclaimed reserve, home to over 1,600 fynbos species. Residents protect the village’s natural charm by limiting development. Just an hour from Cape Town, Pringle Bay offers safe swimming, snorkeling, diving (with permits), birdwatching, and occasional sightings of Cape Clawless Otters and Southern Right Whales. The scenic R44 drive through the area provides breathtaking views and excellent whale-watching spots. The village, a haven for artists and retirees, is an ideal weekend escape with its pristine beaches, hiking trails and local dining options.

Description

Positioned at the foot of the dramatic Rooi Els mountains, this brand-new residence by architect Francois Swart and Hu Art Construction sets a new benchmark for contemporary coastal living. Designed with precision and artistry, the 352m² home unfolds across two levels, where modern luxury and natural beauty seamlessly intertwine.

From every room you are greeted by ocean views that stretch across the entire Table Mountain Peninsula, from Cape Point to Devil's Peak. Rooi Els is one of only two villages in South Africa where such a sweeping perspective can be enjoyed from this unique vantage point. Behind the property, the slopes of the Klein Hangklip mountain rise in contrast to the ever-changing seascape below.

A gently sloped drive leads to the grand entrance. Inside, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space welcomes you with sliding glass walls that disappear into the architecture, creating a natural connection between the indoors and out. A sweeping Balau deck frames uninterrupted views across False Bay, while the wet bar, perfectly positioned beneath a picture window, overlooks Rooi Els beach. Each day brings a new scene, from morning sandbars to afternoon waters where the river meets the sea.

On the upper level, the main suite feels suspended above the coastline, surrounded by glass and light. Below, two en-suite bedrooms open to covered balconies that invite quiet mornings or relaxed evening conversations. A private gym, configured to capture the ocean outlook, offers a calm and inspiring space for daily routines.

A double garage with screeded floors, full solar-power system, inverter backup and comprehensive security infrastructure ensure comfort and peace of mind.
Whether you value space for entertaining, family living or tranquil coastal life, this home presents a rare opportunity to own one of Rooi Els' most remarkable properties.
