THE BUNGALOW
Clifton, Cape Town
The rest of us just know that life is simply sweeter by the sea, and no ocean-front sanctuary for sale has more appeal than The Bungalow. The feel-good factor here is off the charts! Sun-drenched loungers beside the pool offer mind-blowing views of the Atlantic Ocean; you’re tucked away from the crowds, yet with front-row seats to Clifton Beach. This airy couple’s home set over two spacious levels with lots of natural light flooding through the open spaces is a rare find: it epitomizes the luxury of perfect location and refined beach style.
Tiered into the second row of the neighbouring bungalows that occupy this Mediterranean-type stretch of paradise, The Bungalow perfectly positions itself above the beach, totally secluded from the summer crowds. With its very easy access to and from Victoria Road (though there is a double garage for parking close by, which is considered gold for the area!), The Bungalow beckons you directly in to the lovely upstairs entertaining area.
The open-plan living, dining, cooking and lounging spaces have uninterrupted sea views and lofty pitched ceilings. Expansive glass doors slide open to the wooden deck and welcome in deliciously refreshing sea breezes and extraordinary ocean and beach views. Slatted wood panels demarcate the galley-style kitchen, discreetly incorporating the functional spaces into the living area, while a little scullery keeps the views intact. Connecting the stairwell that leads downstairs to the high ceiling is a clever steel support-structure that subtly references the shape of a tree – another contemporary way the design brings the outside in.
Wander down the stairs to the private areas below. The spacious en-suite bedroom opens directly onto the pool area, with endless views over the palm trees to the horizon. His-and-hers bathrooms and a little study or reading area make this a true sanctuary. A real bonus is that here you can savour total privacy despite being in the heart of South Africa’s French Riviera, above one of the most iconic beaches in the world.
