House for sale in Knysna Heights

A Moroccan-Inspired Contemporary Masterpiece
Experience the epitome of modern luxury with this stunning Moroccan-inspired villa, perfectly positioned with breathtaking views of the Knysna Lagoon. An exclusive design investment, combining glass, concrete, wood, and stone to blend seamlessly into its natural surroundings.
Ground Floor – A Sanctuary of Style and Comfort
Step through an impressive glass and aluminum pivot door into a Moroccan-inspired entrance hall featuring a lush atrium and double-volume windows that frame awe-inspiring lagoon views.
The entrance hall flows into an entertainment area with a bespoke granite bar and wooden wall paneling – an ideal space for hosting and entertaining next to the fire of a hand-built stone braai. Large sliding glass doors open onto a 200sqm Garapa terraced wooden deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The deck, with its soft built-in lighting, frames an octagonal swimming pool. Sit on the deck for hours, watching the rise and fall of the tides and the shifting shades of blue in the lagoon below.
Also on the ground floor is the bedroom wing, with its three luxurious en-suite bedrooms, each opening onto a private, covered veranda with lagoon views and direct access to the deck and pool area.
Also on the ground floor is a private guest en-suite bedroom, offering flexibility for visitors or live-in staff, as well as a conveniently located laundry room.
Upper Level – Elevated Elegance

- A fully equipped kitchen with a pantry and scullery
- A dining and lounge area framed by floor-to-ceiling sliding doors with sweeping lagoon vistas.
