R75,000,000 | 4 Bedroom Freehold For Sale in Higgovale

Tranquil Serenity
Perfectly positioned on a tranquil cul-de-sac, House Wabi-Sabi is defined by Table Mountain’s buxom slopes hovering over the property. Steeped directly above the City Bowl, this modern home, nestled within a secluded forest setting, boasts panoramic views of Cape Town harbour and city skyline.
Popular because of its refined simplicity and use of natural materials, Japanese-inspired design has proven its staying power over centuries. House Wabi Sabi has its own fresh interpretation, with a chic offbeat architectural style and idiosyncratic approach, placing nature at the very forefront.

Covering 850 m² under roof, this multileveled four-bedroom residence complimented by modern- day conveniences deliver a singular interpretation of contemporary living. Though bold in style, the sharp lines of the facade transition in the interior, becoming more pliable to gently envelop those who live within its walls, offering refuge and sanctuary from the busy world.
With its gurgling Koi pond and multiple patios and decks adorned with bamboo and cedar, every nuance of design is organic, lending itself to a home that is not only stylistically triumphant, but also functional.

The inviting outdoor braai area is well positioned next to the kitchen with the lush backdrop of the forest.

Tucked away for privacy is the entertainment room with a wood burning fireplace and large cavity sliding windows allowing full view of the city.
