SEA LION
No name could be more apt for this amazing home with its fabulous unrestricted ocean views to the front coupled with its up close and personal views of Lion’s Head to the rear.

Jaw dropping ocean views stretching to the horizon out of every bedroom and public areas of this home give it a very special ‘wow’ factor. And if that’s not enough, it gets even better with its amazing views and easy walking access to Lion’s Head National Park right out of the front door. All this – just 10 minutes drive from the centre of Cape Town and less than 5 minutes from the beaches of Camp’s Bay.

LOCATION
The ultra modern luxurious 4 level home built over a very generous 500 sq metres of living space designed to take full advantage of the magnificent views and designed by one of Cape Town’s premier architects is located in an exclusive and quiet wind free area between Fresnaye and Bantry Bay.

Located in one of the Cape Town’s most prestigious neighbourhoods, Sea Lion is situated on Top Road – the highest road in the neighbourhood offering unparalleled views to both the front and rear of the property. In addition to being located in one of the safest neighbourhoods in Cape Town, the home has automatic electric shutters, multiple security cameras and a sophisticated alarm and fire detection system linked to a 24/7 Armed Response Team – all of which are aimed at complete peace of mind during your stay in this magnificent property


THE EXPERIENCE

The Views – One is lost for choice …. Espresso in the mornings on the balcony watching the ships go by, Gin & Tonics at mid-day on the Terrace waving at climbers on Lion’s Head, Lunch by the Pool watching the horizon or Cocktails on the Lower Deck watching a classical African sunset unfold– each day can be as different as you want it to be.

The Proximity – It’s enviable location means everything is on your doopstep - an early morning hike to Lion’s head (1 min), a mid-morning swim in the sea at Camps bay (5 min), Lunch in the Vineyards (Constantia 20 min, Stellenbosch 30 min, Franschoek 45 min), afternoon shopping at the Cape Quarter or the V&A Waterfront (10 min) and dinner in the city (10 min) – it doesn’t get better than this in terms of convenience.

The Luxury – means you may not want to leave home – 400 thread count white linen and fluffy towels, full travertine bathrooms and rainshowers, Nespresso machines and Reidel wine glasses, airconditioning and under floor heating throughout, a gym and spa treatment area, fully wired wi-fi and home office, movie theatre and Playstation, multiple flat screen TV’s, and Bose sound systems are among the many reasons you may just decide to stay in and soak up the luxury.
