Minimalist elegance meets sleek sea views.

SOLE MANDATE

You pass through the 24-hour manned gate of Schoongezicht Country Estate and climb quiet roads lined with blooming coral trees until a stone-lined driveway guides you to this contemporary home. The estate’s signature terracotta-tiled roof is paired with a modern grey exterior, all framed by a stone privacy wall topped with landscaped, irrigated gardens.

You park in the two-car garage, then step through a grand glass entry into the open-plan living space, where ambient strip lighting is seamlessly integrated into the ceilings and walls, casting a chic glow that elevates the entire interior. The dining area flows through sliding glass doors onto a bright, north-facing balcony that projects outward, unlocking a sweeping 180-degree outlook high above emerald parkland, while to the east, shimmering sea views stretch to the horizon.

Back inside, the lounge is wrapped in windows, drawing in natural light and inviting the landscape into every corner of the space. The kitchen completes the living area with a peninsula offering casual seating, sleek grey whisper-close cabinetry, and elegant marble countertops. Combining form with function, it’s fitted with an induction hob, oven, and a concealed fridge, while a tucked-away scullery is provisioned for appliances and laundry, with direct access to a drying yard.

Passing a guest cloakroom and internal access to the double garage, you reach the master bedroom, adorned with a gorgeous soft-toned floral mural. Large windows capture tranquil valley views, while a walk-through closet leads to an en-suite bathroom finished in calming sage tones, complete with a luxurious bath.

An internal staircase leads down to the lower level, where an open-plan lounge, dining area, and kitchenette create a comfortable living space, accompanied by two bedrooms—one en-suite and one served by a separate bathroom. Sliding doors open onto a veranda, where a wide lawn stretches out ahead—generous enough to accommodate a pool if desired—wrapped by gardens and views. Beyond, a protected indigenous kloof slopes downward toward the valley, ensuring no future builds will ever obscure the incredible outlook before you. This entire level can be completely closed off from the main home to function as a fully self-contained unit with a private entrance, offering excellent flexibility for rental income or multi-generational living.

Schoongezicht Estate is cherished for its safe, family-friendly atmosphere, with a children’s play park within the estate, Greenwood College just up the road, and the Plettenberg Bay Country Club right next door for golf enthusiasts. Generous plot sizes embrace the natural surroundings and encourage a nature-oriented lifestyle, centred around a vast valley park with tranquil dams, while boardwalks weave through protected indigenous forest alive with birdsong and wildlife. Despite this eco-centric setting, Plettenberg Bay’s town centre and beaches are just a six-minute drive from the estate gates, keeping everyday amenities within easy reach.
