House for sale
Coastal Dana Bay retreat with flexible live-work layout and uninterrupted 180° Indian Ocean views, backing onto a greenbelt — includes three bedrooms, flatlet and generous garage.
A rare combination of space, privacy, ocean views and versatility in sought-after Dana Bay.
Imagine waking up to an uninterrupted sweep of the Indian Ocean, enjoying your morning coffee while the coastal landscape unfolds before you, and having the freedom to live, work, entertain or generate additional income from the same property.
This substantial 362 m2 residence on a generous 953 m2 stand offers exactly that — together with a greenbelt directly adjoining the property, extensive solar infrastructure and unusually generous garaging and storage facilities.
The home is arranged over two levels, creating remarkable flexibility for a family seeking additional accommodation, buyers wanting a separate rental unit, or anyone looking for a coastal property that can adapt to changing needs.
A Home Designed Around the View.
The upper level captures the essence of coastal living, with expansive living areas oriented towards the spectacular 180-degree ocean panorama.
At the center of the home is a spacious open-plan living and kitchen area, where natural light, generous proportions and the magnificent outlook combine to create an inviting everyday living environment. Large windows draw the ocean into the home, while the enclosed verandah provides a sheltered extension of the living space for year-round enjoyment.
The verandah also features a built-in braai, making it an ideal setting for relaxed entertaining while taking in the ever-changing colors of the sea and sky.
The well-appointed kitchen combines functionality with contemporary finishes, offering quartz work surfaces with integrated seating, a 5-burner gas hob and extractor, an eye-level electric oven, space for a double-door refrigerator and provision for a dishwasher.
The enclosed verandah could also be enlarged, offering an exciting opportunity to create an even more substantial entertainment or relaxation area.
Comfortable Private Accommodation.
The principal bedroom is located upstairs and enjoys the convenience of a spacious ensuite bathroom fitted with both a corner bath and large shower.
A separate study with built-in cupboards provides an excellent work-from-home environment and could, if desired, be transformed into a fourth bedroom.
A guest cloakroom and an exceptionally spacious laundry with built-in cabinetry add further practicality to this level.
An Independent Lower-Level Living Opportunity.
The lower floor significantly expands the property`s possibilities.
Currently configured as a self-contained flatlet, this level includes two bedrooms with built-in cupboards, a full bathroom, lounge and kitchenette, together with its own entrance. It provides an opportunity to generate rental income while retaining privacy between the two living areas.
A covered stoep opens onto the landscaped garden and enjoys the same magnificent coastal outlook.
Alternatively, the lower and upper levels can be reconnected to create one expansive family residence, making the property equally suitable for permanent family living or multi-generational accommodation.
Energy Independence Built In.
One of the property`s standout features is its substantial renewable-energy installation.
The home is equipped with:
- 12 solar panels
- 8.8 kVA Sunsynk inverter
- Three Greenrich batteries providing 15 kWh total storage
- GeyserWise solar system
This infrastructure can substantially reduce dependence on municipal electricity while providing valuable peace of mind during power interruptions.
A Garden with Space, Privacy & Potential
The property occupies a substantial 953 m2 stand, with the rear boundary adjoining a greenbelt. Apart from providing additional privacy and a wonderful sense of openness, this positioning helps preserve the property`s spectacular ocean outlook.
The enclosed garden has been landscaped with low-maintenance living in mind and incorporates raised vegetable beds for those who enjoy growing their own produce.
A 5,000-litre JoJo water tank provides additional water storage for the property.
Security has also been carefully considered, with the grounds fully enclosed and fitted with an automated entrance gate and CCTV surveillance covering the upper and lower levels as well as the exterior.
Exceptional Garage, Workshop & Storage Space
For buyers requiring more than conventional vehicle accommodation, this property is particularly impressive.
The approximately 10 m x 6 m double garage provides substantial room for vehicles, motorcycles, equipment and recreational gear, while extensive built-in cupboards offer considerable storage capacity.
Next to the garage is a large tiled storeroom/showroom with a glass sliding door. Its current use demonstrates its versatility, but the space could readily be transformed into a home gym, workshop, hobby area, studio, additional storage facility or secure accommodation for motorcycles and other equipment.
A second access gate has already been installed and is ready for motorization, providing another practical option for access to the property.
