First things first, there seems to be a great deal of confusion online about whether it’s Gordon’s Bay or Gordons Bay.

The official tourism site lists it as the latter, sans apostrophe, so that’s what we’re going with here.

Secondly, and obviously the reason why you came here, the matter of what R25 million is going to buy you. A whopper, in short, but in property terms we’re talking about a seven-bedroom, 714 square metre gem right on the beachfront.

Property24 have the listing, images, and details:

A symphony of superior architecture in glass and stainless steel on the blue flag status Bikini Beach, in the most sought after cul-de-sac of Gordons Bay…

The spacious 330 square metre lower unit comprises the main apartment plus an entirely separate, self-contained, beach level flat. The apartment hosts three exquisitely finished en-suite bedrooms plus a guest rest room…

Topping off this serious investment opportunity is the 384 square metre penthouse.

Finished to the same premium standards of the lower apartment, easy access to the living spaces from street level is via the double garage or separate entrance hall…

Nestled at the foot of the Hottentots Holland Mountains, thus sheltered from the Cape winds, this property offers excellent value at the start of the Western Cape Whale Route.

Sheesh, for R25 million I would hope it offered “excellent value”.

Video tour, you say? Yeah, buddy, you get the full Monty:

Other than the music, which made me feel like I was on hold when calling a South African cellular provider, that was rather enjoyable.

If you can stump up the cash (or afford R241 255 per month for the 20 year, 10% interest bond repayment), then good luck to you.
