“Celebrate sunshine living – salty swims, vast skies and starry nights”

Gong Beach House for sale in Yzerfontein is an open-hearted, welcoming and luxurious space right on the water’s edge – just the ticket for sun-drenched holidays on South Africa’s West Coast.

An easy 85km drive north of Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront, Yzerfontein is a world apart. One of this quaint fishing village’s claims to fame is 16 Mile Beach, the longest uninterrupted beach on the South African coastline, with a spectacular view all the way to Table Mountain. Another is that it’s almost the midpoint of the Cape West Coast Biosphere Reserve. This means you’re smack-bang in the heart of an important marine and land-based conservation area – which is one of the many reasons we love it so much.

Island inspiration

This expansive five-bedroom beach home for sale on the West Coast pays whimsical homage to Indonesia’s Javanese culture and aesthetic, drawing architectural inspiration from the region’s traditional ‘joglo’ homes. The swooping roof line – inspired by the distinctive tall trapezoid roofs found in traditional buildings on the island of Java – is an unexpected mirror of the undulating dunes you’ll find up and down the West Coast. The Burmese teak roof beams and intricately carved doorways have made their long journey from the balmy shores of Bali to find their home in this African abode.

Beachfront bliss

We love the way this beautiful single-storey beach house balances airy, light-filled open-plan interiors with many a nook to curl up in with a good book or for an afternoon snooze. Taking its cue from the glorious surroundings, the home’s colour palette is one of beachy natural hues, creams, greys, blues and charcoals.

The large kitchen is the heart of this home, where crafting a meal becomes a celebration of shared joys, beloved family and old and new friends. The rooms flow onto outdoor living spaces, carefully designed to offer shade and shelter from seasonal breezes.

And if the sea is just that bit too crisp for you – or the waves that day too large – you’ll love the sparkling pool that looks right onto the Atlantic Ocean.

The ambience is one of refined comfort, effortless charm and organic sophistication. Generously sleeping 10 people, this beautiful beach home is made for relaxed getaways with the whole family.

Beachfront homes for sale in Yzerfontein are snapped up as fast as you can say, “Look at the dolphins!” So if you’re dreaming of a West Coast hideaway for sale on the water’s edge to call your own, get in touch.
