This exceptional residence offers rare privacy, scale and architectural distinction. Positioned on a beautiful and generous 2,012m2 site within a tranquil forested area surrounded by mature indigenous trees with views over the Zimbali golf course. Designed by renowned architect Brian Johnson, the residence blends seamlessly with its natural setting through double-volume spaces, expansive glass and full-height folding doors that invite the forest indoors. Imported polished Italian Travertine marble flows throughout the living areas and outdoor spaces, while vaulted ceilings clad in Brazilian Pau Marfim hardwood add warmth and architectural drama. The abundance of natural light that floods through the home and between rooms with the clever use of glass panels, is a defining feature. The incredible master suite provides the wow factor with an exceptional bathroom and an enclosed outdoor shower area. The home is engineered for long-term living, featuring piled foundations, a full basement with service access, rainwater harvesting, and a newly commissioned off-grid solar system with battery backup, significantly reducing energy costs. A landscaped indigenous garden, handcrafted Palabora Quartzite privacy walls, and a forest-framed swimming pool complete this private sanctuary. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive Zimbali residence where architecture, nature and privacy exist in perfect balance.
