Western Cape, Plettenberg Bay, South Africa

SOLE MANDATE

Set in the heart of the highly desirable suburb of Seaside Longships, this characterful home has great curb appeal!

The property is accessed via an automated gate where you have 2 secure off-street parking bays and an extra-length double garage with space generous enough for storage, surfboards, bikes, or even a hobby workshop. Alternatively, you are able to enter through the pedestrian gate, straight into the home’s lavender-scented garden that’s wrapped in mature trees.

A welcoming porch guides you through the front door and into the open-plan living space, where a TV and study nook to your right is warmed by a cozy fireplace. A dining area ahead naturally connects to the charming kitchen. Here, an island with wood countertops hosts casual breakfast seating, while soft grey cabinetry and a subway-tile splashback add a warm, tasteful character. Function follows form with ease, with a gas stove, provision for a bar fridge, and a tucked-away scullery, laundry, and walk-in pantry, keeping everyday practicality out of sight.

Across the living space, the home opens into a spacious entertainment lounge, wrapped in sliding glass doors that in turn open onto an expansive, sun-drenched porch and a covered outdoor dining space with a built-in braai. Steps lead down to a large pool surrounded by loungers in a private space of its own.

Back inside, off the living area is a guest bedroom with built-in cupboards, served by an adjacent bathroom. A flight of stairs ascends to the home’s private quarters that enjoy double-glazed windows throughout. Whitewashed wood floors on the landing guide you left to the master bedroom with built-in cupboards, and an en-suite bathroom, while two additional bedrooms are served by a detached bathroom across the hall.

Practical features include a backup inverter and both a gas and electric geyser, ensuring peace of mind and a reliable hot water supply.

A passage alongside the garage leads to a self-contained cottage, complete with a private courtyard, covered porch, open-plan living space, kitchenette, bedroom, and bathroom. On the opposite side of the house, a generous drying yard leads to a second flatlet, currently unfinished, yet configured as a studio-style space to accommodate a bedroom, kitchenette, and bathroom. These additional spaces provide exceptional flexibility to be used for visiting family or friends, multi-generational living, or lucrative short- or long-term rentals.

The spectacular location elevates this opportunity even further — set around the corner from Beachy Head Drive and Robberg Beach, this is the kind of proximity that drives constant demand; close enough to hear the waves, wander beachward on a whim, and fully embrace Plett’s renowned coastal lifestyle. With shops and everyday amenities only a few minutes drive away, daily convenience is never far, completing a wonderful home that balances lifestyle, flexibility, and one of the town's most compelling coastal locations.
