Nestled in the Simbiti Eco Estate, this holiday home has been designed to allow for ease of living in a luxurious setting. The home gives rise to an abode that is modern and welcoming with open-plan spaces that are large enough to accommodate extended family, while still being in harmony with its natural surroundings. 

An architectural highlight is the way the home allows for the exterior views to become focal points in the interior spaces. here is an impressive 360° view over the valleys of the estate, and this immediately enhances the tranquil ambience of the home.

When it came to the treatment of the interiors, the owner, together with his dad, who co-owns the property with him, designed and manufactured 90% of the furniture at their workshop in Johannesburg, and they did all the interior designs themselves.

The owner’s modern style and his dad’s more traditional taste resulted in interiors with a mixture of looks – all adding to the welcoming ambience of the home.

With a unique interior and views that will leave you breathless, this home is perfectly suited to the ideal South African lifestyle.
