Seaside Longships, Plettenberg Bay

SOLE MANDATE

A peaceful suburban street leads you to this fully walled coastal contemporary home, where two automatic gates offer separate points of entry: one opening to outdoor parking bays and the other guiding you into a double garage. Passing a freestanding storeroom, a short staircase rises to a bright patio with an outdoor shower, sun-lounging space, and an adjustable louvre roof, while a pool shimmers in the warm, north-eastern sunshine.

Stepping into the foyer, you find a guest cloakroom, while a versatile, light-filled room to the right is ideal as an office, art studio or pyjama lounge, with stairs leading up to an en-suite bedroom. Turning left from the foyer guides you into the open-plan living space, where a gabled ceiling with exposed trusses soars overhead and white wood-look laminate flooring stretches underfoot. A fireplace warms the lounge with a cosy ambiance, while the dining area sits in front of the kitchen. Here, an island with casual seating anchors the space with quartz countertops that pair beautifully with smoky-blue cabinetry. A gas stove and an additional eye-level oven bring function to form, while the tucked-away scullery provides provision for appliances and laundry while leading out to a drying yard, keeping the practical rhythm of daily life blissfully out of sight.

The entire living space opens through folding glass stacking doors onto a wide balcony with a built-in braai and plenty of room for dining, lounging and entertaining. It’s here that one of the home’s most delightful features shines: a lush, conserved greenbelt where birds twitter and flowers bloom backs the properties peaceful outlook.

Back inside, a stairway guides you up to the master bedroom, where glass sliding doors open to a small balcony, inviting the gorgeous view and glimpses of Robberg straight to your bedside. A walk-in dressing room and spacious en-suite bathroom with a luxurious bath, dual basins, and dual showers make this private retreat as comfortable as it is beautiful.

A staircase leading down from the living space brings you to three additional en-suite bedrooms, each with glass sliding doors opening directly onto the grassy garden, giving family members or guests the freedom to come and go without needing to traverse the entire home.

Beyond its thoughtful layout, the home is also protected by perimeter security beams and has a solar system comprising 18 panels, two 5kWh batteries and an 8kW Sunsynk inverter.

Seaside Longships is renowned for its walkable beach access, and this home is no exception, positioned close enough to hear the rhythm of the waves. A stroll of approximately 300 metres east brings you to the pet-friendly sands of Sanctuary Beach, while a little further south delivers you to a newly built shopping precinct, placing everyday conveniences and amenities within easy reach, with Plettenberg Bay’s vibrant town centre only a five-minute drive away.
