South Africa's Most Iconic Ocean Home

Die Punt Beach House – UNESCO Kogelberg Biosphere

Set in the heart of the UNESCO Kogelberg Biosphere, this exceptional beach house sits within an exclusive Overberg village, just an hour’s drive from Cape Town’s city centre.

Positioned on a generous 10,500m² stand with uninterrupted views over False Bay, the home was designed by Elphick Proome to showcase its spectacular Atlantic Ocean setting. The interiors are a celebration of space and light, with frameless external walls that dissolve the boundaries between indoors and out, and finishes of a truly world-class calibre.

The layout is as considered as it is beautiful. Three bedrooms include a master suite privately positioned at the far end of the main living space, separated from the others by the sleek kitchen and open-plan living areas. Above the third bedroom, a loft snug provides a quiet hideaway with breathtaking views. A wood-panelled study equally suited to a library or fourth bedroom which offers further versatility.

Arriving through a rock-lined courtyard, you’ll find a workshop and large garage. A perimeter deck wraps around the property, connecting to the swimming pool, while the lower level houses a fully equipped laundry, gym, steam shower, bathroom, and an expansive 500m² covered entertainment deck.

Practicality meets sustainability in the basement, where a 15kWh / 12kW inverter and battery backup ensure uninterrupted living.

This is more than a home — it’s a rare convergence of architecture, location, and lifestyle.
