Welcome to Bushland Retreat
Perched on a gently sloping site in the South African bush, this five-bedroom home dissolves the boundary between inside and out. Expansive glass walls slide away to welcome dappled sunlight, whispering grasses and ancient fever trees into every corner of the living spaces.
Design Concept
Fluid Indoor–Outdoor Plan
A central courtyard and reflecting pool carve the house into three pavilions—public, private and service—while generous overhangs and folding screens encourage constant interaction with the landscape.Materials in Dialogue with Nature
Locally sourced sandstone, charred timber cladding and fair-faced concrete walls echo the textures of the bushveld, creating a rich yet restrained palette that feels both rooted and refined.
Living Spaces
Great Room Under the Canopy
A double-height lounge and dining area opens on two sides to covered terraces. When the frameless doors are fully retracted, the hearth-lined living room simply becomes another outdoor room beneath the trees.Gourmet Kitchen & Breakfast Nook
Stainless-steel counters, a walk-in pantry and a casual bar that overlooks the pool provide a contemporary heart to the home—where morning light filters through louvered screens onto handcrafted joinery.
Private Pavilions
Master Suite Sanctuary
Tucked into the eastern wing, the master retreat features its own plunge pool deck, freestanding tub framed by floor-to-ceiling glass, and a private view of the sunrise grazing the acacias.Guest & Family Wings
Four additional bedrooms each open onto a shared courtyard or secluded balcony. Integrated study nooks and built-in storage keep spaces uncluttered and flexible.
Outdoor Living
Pool & Entertaining Terrace
An infinity-edged pool flows into the landscape, bordered by a cantilevered deck for sunbathing and sundowner cocktails. A hidden grill station and outdoor dining platform make al fresco meals effortless.Bushwalk Pathways
Meandering boardwalks wind through indigenous planting, leading to a firepit enclave, yoga pavilion and concealed bird-watching hides—so every day brings a new bush discovery.
