Description
A quiet secluded seaside bungalow in a crescent bay on the rocks. The Bakoven bungalow Sea-Foam was rebuilt in 1971, prior to that it was a MOTH cottage from WW1. It is a good example of coastal bungalow typology from around the world. The traditional hipped roof has skylights providing glimpses of the Twelve Apostles and Table Mountain; Lion’s Head is in full view from the spacious deck serving as an outdoor dining and lounging area under a retractable awning. The flowing fynbos landscaping leads down to the rocks before the Atlantic Ocean, with waves creating the only sound besides the squelch of Oyster Catchers, Gulls and other birds that come down from the mountain each day. Whales, dolphins, seals, sea otters, cormorants and gulls can be seen from the deck. Explore the tidal pools for klipvis, starfish, eels, crabs, and other intertidal molluscs and...
