Estate Somerset West presents a rare convergence of scale, architectural presence, and environmental consciousness, set on approximately 25,000 m² of secluded fynbos. This estate is both a sanctuary and an accomplishment, with 1,500 m² of refined space designed for those who value both privacy and lasting connection to place. The property’s sweeping mountain and sea views, including False Bay and Tafelberg, form a living panorama visible from every vantage point.
The double-storey main residence is defined by volume and clarity, with open-plan interiors that amplify natural light. Two en-suite bedrooms upstairs, each oriented for singular views, are complemented by expansive balconies and an infinity pool that hovers at the edge of the horizon. European-level finishes, underfloor heating, and double-glazed windows ensure comfort that endures across seasons.
On the lower level, flexible design prevails. Two more en-suite bedrooms, a secondary kitchen and lounge, wine cellar, entertainment spaces, and seamless access to the pool deck provide distinguished venues for family life or discreet hosting. A self-contained cottage with its own entrance expands accommodation options for guests or staff.
This estate’s approach to sustainability is comprehensive: energy autonomy through 90 solar panels, an 80 kWh battery system, 400 kVA generator, and mountain water reserves underscore efficiency without compromise. Two independent septic systems complete its eco-conscious profile.
Located moments from Stellenbosch and Franschhoek’s celebrated vineyards, and only 35 minutes from Cape Town International Airport, the estate is a private retreat within easy reach of amenities, beaches, and national parks. Estate Somerset West with mountain and sea views stands as a legacy property where luxury living is defined by serenity, sustainability, and enduring design.
