A Lush Mountain-Backed Villa in Hermanus

Hermanus Hillside Villa

Perfectly designed for relaxed indoor-outdoor living.

 This holiday villa on the slopes of Fernkloof in Hermanus channels log-cabin vibes – just ultra-modern, super-sized and multi-levelled. A combination of gleaming timber, exposed brick, sleek cement, polished stone and glass creates an architectural showpiece, cleverly designed for contemporary lifestyles (complete with solar panels on the roof).

Style central

Hermanus Hillside Villa Interior

There’s a cool and breezy atmosphere thanks to high ceilings, light floors and walls, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Well-chosen features, such as eye-catching light fittings, a blue-marble feature wall in the lounge, and a central floating concrete staircase and skylight create additional visual interest.

Hermanus Hillside Villa Living Area

The open-plan living area is divided into spaces for lounging and chatting, for enjoying meals together, for catching up on your favourite series, or playing games next to a cosy fireplace. The adjoining kitchen has all the fittings, gadgets and utensils you need for whipping up a feast.

Alfresco affair

An undercover braai area has its own modern cement table, and the spacious garden and lawns offer space for a game or sunbathing on loungers.
