What R220 million buys you in Cape Town

938

Cape Town continues to sit at the top of South Africa’s property wish list. Pristine beaches, world-class dining, acclaimed wine farms and a lifestyle shaped by nature keep global buyers returning year after year.

While many locals feel priced out of the market, the ultra-luxury segment tells a different story. At the very top end, R220 million buys far more than a home. It buys global status, privacy and one of the rarest addresses in the country.

An address above it all

Set high on the slopes of Lion’s Head and bordered by Table Mountain National Park, this exceptional residence overlooks the Atlantic with uninterrupted views across Clifton’s iconic beaches.

Located along Nettleton Road, widely regarded as the most exclusive residential address on the African continent, the home represents a rare opportunity. Properties on this stretch seldom reach the open market.

The listing is currently showcased on JamesEdition, a global marketplace known for curating some of the world’s most extraordinary homes, yachts and private jets. Its presence there underscores the property’s international appeal.

Architecture built for scale and sophistication

Inside, double-volume reception areas flow into expansive living and entertainment spaces, all oriented to maximise ocean views.

The home includes
• A private cinema and cocktail bar
• A temperature-controlled wine cellar
• A bespoke executive office suite
• Hair and nail studios
• A sauna and dedicated wellness spaces

Every zone balances grand entertaining with refined everyday living.

Outdoor living, elevated

The gourmet kitchen opens onto sun-drenched terraces designed for hosting. Outside, an infinity pool and jacuzzi extend toward the horizon, creating the sensation of floating above the Atlantic.

These spaces transition easily from quiet mornings to sunset gatherings, capturing the essence of Cape Town’s coastal lifestyle.

Private retreats with panoramic views

Each bedroom is a self-contained suite with en-suite bathrooms and sweeping sea views. The main suite features a spa-style bathroom and direct access to the jacuzzi terrace, offering complete seclusion.

Guest suites mirror the same standard, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout the home.

Technology, security and seamless living

Smart home automation manages lighting, climate and security across the property. Secure garaging accommodates multiple vehicles, while discreet staff accommodation supports smooth day-to-day operation.

Every detail reflects long-term liveability at the highest level.

A true Cape Town trophy home

At R220 million, this is not a purchase driven by square metres. It is defined by position, rarity and international relevance.

On Nettleton Road, ownership places you among a small group of global homeowners who value privacy, views and timeless prestige above all else.
