Privately overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, with the magnificent Twelve Apostles mountain range as a dramatic backdrop, Private Collection Villa 3 is found in one of the most prestigious locations in Cape Town. Situated in the gardens of the luxury boutique hotel Ellerman House in Bantry Bay, Private Collection Villa 3 has combined cutting-edge contemporary design with luxurious interior living to create a modern counterpart to the classic design of the original home.
The villa's superior position above Bantry Bay provides spectacular 180 degree views of the Atlantic Ocean and surrounding majestic mountain range. The villa itself is an architectural masterpiece, with its spacious dimensions, minimalist decor and eclectic art collection creating an elegant and stylish space. The villa is built over three levels: the top level contains three spacious bedrooms, the middle level includes the open-plan living area and the lower level houses a spa (which is available for use by the occupants of Ellerman House as well as the villa), and two additional rooms which can be hired at an additional cost. The high ceilings, tall windows and wide timber decks create the impression of being out at sea, with endless views of the ocean.
The design of the villa is tastefully modern, with glass sliding doors opening onto the many deck areas, and top-of-the-range appliances. The plasma touch panels installed throughout the house control the home environment, including opening and closing window coverings, adjusting lighting and room temperature, controlling the temperatures of the pool and sauna and requesting services from the massage therapist, butler or caterer.
Although the villa differs vastly in its architectural design and decor from the original Ellerman House, both the villa and and the main house are uncompromising when it comes to quality and service. The villa has its own private butler and chef, providing an exclusive and attentive service to its guests, who have sole use of all the facilities while in residence. In every aspect of its design this villa is a property that emanates luxury, privacy and excellence.
