Description

MOMBASA, KENYA

AN ARCHITECTURAL MASTERPIECE ON THE INDIAN OCEAN

“Those who live by the Sea can hardly form a single thought of which the sea would not be part” Hermann Broch.

Perched on a cliff-top in the region’s most important port city, Mombasa, the main gateway to East and Central Africa, this one of a kind four-bedroom villa comes with a 2.2-acre property, endless terraces on multiple levels, 360 views of the open sea, an idyllic creek and a parkland-style garden.

LOCATION

Because of its unique position on the creek’s corner, the house looks onto both the open ocean and the creek.

Inland, the creek makes for a calm, quiet, glassy boat trip into a mangrove forest full of birds and baobab trees. It is especially lovely in the evenings and is a magical way to impress guests over sundowners.

Deep-sea fishing boats head out to sea in front of the house at dawn. Kenya offers some of the best deep-sea fishing in the world with a hugely diverse range of fishing opportunities. It is one of the very few places where three types of Marlin, Sailfish, Broadbill Swordfish, and Short bill Spearfish are all available.

Traditional fishing boats cast their nets right in front of the house and the fishermen will bring the fresh catch to the gate on request.

The rains, which start around April, will transform the garden into a lush green park full of exotic flowers, which usually lasts until October.
