Ranchito is a new house on the edge of the Seal Bay Nature Reserve in Cape St Francis. A path from the house runs through the reserve to the beach.
It was designed and built in the mid-century modern style: one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen and an open-plan sunken lounge, 120 square metres in all, with space outside and plenty of parking.
Designer and vintage furniture sits alongside furnishings and linen brought in from Europe. The kitchen has Smeg appliances and Le Creuset pots and pans. It is made for two, for a weekend away or a longer stay.
Open from 15 December 2026.
