SAOTA-Designed Lagoon-Front Luxury | Benguela Cove

WHERE ARCHITECTURE MEETS THE LAGOON

EXCLUSIVE MANDATE_ Designed by SAOTA, the internationally acclaimed architects behind some of the world’s most celebrated residences, this 578m² lagoon-front retreat at Benguela Cove Lagoon & Wine Estate sits just above the Bot River Lagoon shoreline. Some homes are built. Others are composed. From here, the view runs across the water to Arabella Golf Estate, with the Overberg Mountains beyond, and the first-floor bedroom wing soars over the living spaces below, framing panoramic views from every level.

Three oversized glass doors dissolve the boundary between living room and landscape. A fireplace warms the family lounge in winter, and in summer the party moves outside to the built-in gas braai, the sparkling pool and a wide covered deck made for long lagoon evenings. Afterwards, unwind in the bathroom with its steam room and jacuzzi. At the heart of the home, a granite island anchors the kitchen, with a breakfast counter, built-in appliances and a separate scullery with abundant storage.

Upstairs, the master suite is a private sanctuary with its own fireplace, walk-in cupboards, remote-controlled blinds and a spa-inspired en-suite. A second en-suite bedroom and two further bedrooms sharing a stylish bathroom complete the upper level. Guests have their own wing above the garage, with an en-suite and a private Juliet balcony over the lagoon. Downstairs, a study with a gas heater, air-conditioning and built-in cupboards sits beside a kids’ pajama lounge and games room, so every generation has a space of its own.

Practicality is just as considered. The double garage has room for two vehicles, bikes, toys and a workbench, and a separate laundry opens to an enclosed courtyard and a self-contained carer’s/helper’s flatlet with its own en-suite.

Life at Benguela Cove is as rewarding as the home itself. This safe, low-density estate has 24-hour manned security and is roughly an hour’s drive from Cape Town International Airport. Residents enjoy a private jetty, slipway and boating garages, a clubhouse, swimming pool, and basketball, tennis and boules courts by the beach, along with water-skiing, kite surfing, kayaking and open water swimming. There is a 12km cliff path, an award-winning restaurant and winery on site, and a direct allocation of estate wines crafted by the cellar master through the estate’s agricultural agreement with the farm.

Five bedrooms. Four bathrooms. One extraordinary address. This is more than a property. It is a lifestyle and a legacy opportunity that brings together luxury, design and natural splendour at the water’s edge.
