The Olive Tree Villa Una Rara Residenza Architettonica Sulla Spiaggia A Pearl Bay, Yzerfontein

Exclusive Joint Mandate
Set directly on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, with views across the sea towards Table Mountain, The Olive Tree Villa occupies an exceptional position at the secluded southern end of Pearl Bay. Even during the busiest holiday periods, this end of Pearl Bay retains a remarkable sense of quiet, privacy and space. Long walks along the largely unspoilt coastline, the ever-changing Atlantic and spectacular sunsets are part of everyday life here.

Designed by Gavin Maddock and completed in 2019, this residence combines an exceptional West Coast position, elevated ocean views, generous terraces, an extraordinary sense of space and highly considered contemporary architecture. The result is a residence in which architecture, landscape and ocean have been conceived as one.

Comprising approximately 480m² on a prime 759m² beachfront erf, the Villa is arranged as two interconnected pavilions around a protected central courtyard. Off-shutter concrete, glass, zinc, timber and dark Cemcrete create a restrained architectural language grounded in the West Coast landscape. Extensive glazing allows the interiors to open effortlessly onto terraces and outdoor spaces, maintaining a constant connection with the Atlantic.

The principal living spaces open through floor-to-ceiling glass onto Atlantic-facing terraces, while the sheltered central courtyard provides a private outdoor sanctuary with a heated salt-chlorinated pool and the Villa’s magnificent, mature olive tree.

Four beautifully appointed bedroom suites are distributed between the two pavilions. The spectacular penthouse-style principal accommodation features a double-volume living space opening towards the Atlantic, a private terrace and elevated plunge pool overlooking the beach and ocean. A fourth suite, set apart across the courtyard, has its own veranda and views towards the sea.

Throughout, exceptional craftsmanship is expressed through veneered-oak joinery, marble, Iroko timber and finely resolved architectural detailing.
Contemporary comforts include a four-person private lift and staircase, double-glazed doors and windows, motorised blinds, Bosch and Smeg appliances, double garage, study, laundry and staff accommodation.

Energy resilience is provided by a 16 kVA inverter, a Freedom Won 20 kWh battery, eighteen solar panels and solar water heating, complemented by fibre connectivity, CCTV and Ajax security.

It is, in many respects, seclusion without isolation, a private coastal retreat within easy reach of Cape Town.

The Olive Tree Villa can be enjoyed as a fully private four-suite coastal residence while retaining the flexibility offered by its established history of income generation from luxury guest suites.
