Scrimshaw Featured

About this listing

The name Scrimshaw comes from the historical art of intricate carving of ivory and bones in an era when these where plentiful; it is a fitting name for a beach house with meticulous attention to detail. This beautiful house incorporates green elements in keeping with the times. These include sixteen solar panels feeding electricity through an inverter into the system, solar water heating, greywater systems and rainwater harvesting system. From the design board of Lennard and Lennard, this contemporary combination of timber frame and brick structure clad with corrugated roof sheeting, is unique in the upmarket Klein Slangkop Estate and just a short stroll from Long Beach. Ideal for a maximum of 6 guests with well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. There is a pool in the central courtyard over-looked by the outside entertainment area. A great choice for a beach holiday in summer or winter. This home has a lovely flow with comfortable outdoor furniture and large sliding doors carefully installed to allow for protection from the prevailing winds. There is no pool safety net so it is not suitable for children who are not able to swim.
