Experience a piece of South African history in this remarkable townhouse, located in the iconic Fook Island. This "island of the imagination" was a materialization of famous South African artist Walter Battiss' philosophy for which he created a map, imaginary people, plants, animals, a history as well as a set of postage stamps, currency, passports and driver's licenses. He created a Fookian language with a full alphabet as well. This utopian 'island' was a composite of the many islands he visited – which included Zanzibar, the Seychelles, Madagascar, Fiji, Hawaii, Samoa, the Greek Isles and the Comores – blended together in his customary imaginative fashion. In Battiss's words, "It is something that does not exist. I thought that I would take an island – the island that is inside all of
us. I would turn this island into a real thing ... I would give it a name". Fook was a result of his fertile imagination.
Designed with a timeless Greek aesthetic, this townhouse blends classic elegance with modern comfort. The open-plan layout connects the kitchen to the living areas, including a private lounge, dining area, and family room. A dedicated study with air conditioning offers a quiet workspace for your convenience. Step outside to enjoy your private outdoor space, featuring an open patio with a built-in braai, a sparkling pool, and a beautifully landscaped garden. The main bedroom, complete with air conditioning and a private balcony overlooking the pool and garden, provides a peaceful retreat. Two additional bedrooms share two well-appointed bathrooms, one of which is en-suite.
This townhouse is equipped with a solar system for sustainability and advanced security features, including a lift, alarm system, beams, and CCTV. The single garage and two covered carports offer ample parking.
