house and villa rentals in Knysna

A dream house by the sea
Enjoying breathtaking views over the Indian Ocean, Blue Horizon is a luxurious residence offering the ultimate in comfort and relaxation. Newly built to the highest specification, the property occupies a spectacular clifftop location on an exclusive, secure development: the Sparrebosch Clifftop Estate. This estate holds the world famous Pezula Golf Course and is next to the Pezula hotel and Spa and Gym.

The house, in a private corner of the estate, looks out onto a secluded beach which is accessible by a walking trail starting on the golf course.

A large, single storey property built around a sheltered central courtyard, the open plan layout maximizes natural light to create a serene and restful ambiance. The master bedroom and living/dining areas open out to a long verandah overlooking on one side the beautiful shoreline of the Sparrebosch Nature Reserve (a 45-hectare Afromontane forest which is part of the Knysna Coastal Conservancy) and on the other side the beach and ocean beyond – the ideal spot for a sundowner or a morning of whale and dolphin watching.

Modern and elegant
The overall architecture is of a timeless, radically modern design.

Using quality finishes, furnishings and objects d’art throughout, Blue Horizon’s interiors exude elegance and simplicity. State-of-the-art kitchen appliances, audio-visual equipment and underfloor heating throughout, offer the last word in 21st century comfort.

Sleeping up to 8 people, Blue Horizon comprises 4 double bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom features patio doors leading to the verandah with fabulous sea views, king bed, dressing room and a superb bathroom with bath and shower. Bedrooms 2 & 3 feature queen beds, wardrobes and stylish ensuite shower rooms. Bedroom 4 overlooks the courtyard and has a kingsize bed (convertible into 2 single beds), fitted wardrobes and en-suite shower room.

Designed for entertaining
At the centre of the house is a stylish, fully-equipped kitchen with an island worktop unit with sink and storage space. There’s a stainless steel cooking range, extractor hood and large double-door fridge/freezer, microwave oven, kettle, toaster, etc. The utility room, located to the side of the kitchen, has a washing machine, dryer, dishwasher and an additional sink.

The adjacent dining and lounge areas are bright and spacious and lead seamlessly to the verandah by means of ‘fold & stack’ frameless glass doors. One end of this huge living space features top quality audio/visual equipment, including a large LCD TV (with DSTV), hi-fi system and DVD, comfortable couches, massive coffee table and pebble gas fire. At the opposite end is an additional seating area with couches and fireplace.

Mostly laid to lawn, the central courtyard offers an outside entertainment area with built-in duel-fuel braai (electric & gas) and a deck with an attractive driftwood dining table.
