Stunning French-style country home with breathtaking views of False Bay in the secure Fairhaven Estate
Welcome to your perfect retreat in the secure and prestigious Fairhaven Country Estate—one of the most sought-after residential communities in Somerset West. This beautiful home offers breathtaking panoramic views of False Bay, both during the day and against the magnificent colours of the evening sky. Lovingly furnished in a charming French country style, it combines classic comfort with modern living.
Start your day with a delicious cup of coffee from the bean-to-cup machine and settle in on the cosy sofa while enjoying the spectacular ocean view through the large windows. The private pool area invites you to relax—enjoy the South African sun in complete privacy.
Just about a 30-minute drive away is Stellenbosch, famous for its world-class wineries and restaurants. Discover iconic wine estates such as Ernie Els, Yonder Hill, and Uva Mira—all perfect for wine tastings and fine dining.
