The architectural language of the Bakubung Villas has been developed byrenowned Architect Paul Visagie of SKM Architects to sit comfortably in the landscape. The use of thatch and earthy toned external wall finishes ensure the villas blend into and compliment the natural bush and rocky outcrops of the ever popular Pilanesberg National Park.
Mountain and valley villas are positioned to maximize the unique experiences of the different terrains, with both options offering spectacular views.
The villas have been designed as individual bush lodges, where modern lines, thatch and timber find their optimum balance.
The villas can be completely opened up to the bushveld views whilst retaining good privacy and offering high quality indoor /outdoor living to the standards one would only expect from a Legacy property.
