New Court At Alphen, 1 Peter Cloete Avenue, Constantia, Cape Town, South Africa

This development blends luxury with centuries-old charm and is a tribute to the estate’s historic renaissance architecture.

The New Court at Alphen features 17 sectional title residences, arranged around a central square, adjacent to the Great Cellar on the renowned Alphen Estate.
 
Nestled within a prestigious security estate, it offers an exclusive lock-up-and-go lifestyle with a cosmopolitan ambience. Key design elements include a white plastered facade, tall sash windows, arched entrances, plaster mouldings, and carriage lamps, all inspired by Old Cape architecture.

This unique townhouse, with interiors redesigned by Jenny Mills Architecture in collaboration with the owner, is a private sanctuary spread across three floors. Covering 260m², it blends high-end European finishes with rich African textures, creating a refined yet warm atmosphere. The exterior features a private garden, an undercover patio, a sauna and an outdoor Sensi Touch shower, offering both luxury and relaxation. No compromises were made on quality, with carefully selected finishes throughout, including yellowwood floors and timber decking, walnut built-in cupboards, a cedarwood vaulted ceiling in the loft and rust-textured and boldly painted walls.
 
The entrance leads into a breath-taking Bulthaup Monoblock kitchen designed by Veena Kalsi, featuring a stainless-steel waterfall countertop with an integrated basin, a convection stove and soft-touch cupboards and drawers. A Lagerfeld console adds a statement feature to the area. The kitchen also includes an eye-level oven, and integrated Miele fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen flows seamlessly into an intimate dining and lounge area, where stack-back doors open onto a covered patio deck, perfect for entertaining. The living area also features a pellet burner and a Bang and Olufsen sound system.
 
Access to the upper floors is via a yellowwood staircase with slip tread or a private elevator.
On the first floor, a spacious landing with sliding utility cupboards houses a washing machine. Two luxurious en-suite bedrooms are located on this level, one with a shower suite, the other with a full bathroom and French doors that open to a balcony with mountain views.
 
The second-floor loft bedroom is a unique space, complete with a skylight, storage area, en-suite shower suite and separate toilet. Stack-back doors lead to a private balcony with panoramic mountain views.
