Perched atop the dramatic cliffs of De Kelders, this newly renovated beach house is a true masterpiece, offering unrivaled panoramic views over Walker Bay and the world-renowned De Plaat Beach—a prestigious Conde Nast-status destination.

This extraordinary home combines modern elegance with the rugged charm of coastal living, designed to be both an entertainer’s dream and a peaceful sanctuary where you can fully immerse yourself in the beauty of nature.

From the moment you step inside, you are met with breathtaking ocean views from every angle. The home’s open-plan design and expansive stackable windows blur the line between indoors and outdoors, ensuring that the ever-changing sea remains the focal point of daily life.

The spacious undercover patio and built-in braai area provide the perfect setting for entertaining, where guests can gather to enjoy alfresco dining, cocktails at sunset, and the spectacular sight of whales breaching in the bay right in front of you.

The rhythmic crash of the waves and the hauntingly beautiful sounds of the whales create an unparalleled sensory experience that defines this extraordinary coastal retreat.

The master suite is a luxurious private escape, perfectly positioned to take in the ocean’s splendor. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto the patio, allowing the fresh sea breeze and natural light to flood the space.
A spacious dressing room and elegantly appointed ensuite bathroom add to the sense of indulgence, making this a true haven of relaxation.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is designed to be as stylish as it is functional. Its modern nautical aesthetic is complemented by state-of-the-art finishes, sleek countertops, and premium appliances, creating an inviting space for culinary enthusiasts. A large central island with bar seating makes it perfect for casual dining, morning coffees, or sharing a glass of wine while preparing meals.

Thoughtful design ensures ample storage space, including a cleverly concealed pantry. A direct connection to the oversized garage provides added convenience, making grocery runs effortless, while a separate guest toilet completes the upper-level layout.

The lower level of the home offers a self-contained two-bedroom guest apartment, providing privacy and versatility for extended family, visitors, or even rental potential. With its own lounge, kitchenette, and undercover entertainment patio, this space offers comfort, independence, and breathtaking views.

Large glass doors open onto the back garden, seamlessly extending the indoor-outdoor flow. The two bedrooms are currently used as an office and a workshop but can easily be restored to their original design.
The property is fully walled for privacy, with beautifully paved pathways and a low-maintenance landscape. A separate driveway leads directly to the lower-level apartment, ensuring complete independence from the main house when desired.
Situated on prestigious Ingang Street, this home is a statement of refined coastal living. De Kelders is one of South Africa’s most sought-after coastal villages, celebrated for its unparalleled whale-watching, rugged cliffs, pristine beaches, and extraordinary natural wonders.
The nearby Klipgat Caves and Walker Bay Nature Reserve offer endless outdoor adventures, from scenic hikes and 4x4 trails to kayaking and exploring hidden beaches.
