Range Rover House South Africa is nestled at the foot of Table Mountain in the upmarket Western Cape suburb of Bishopscourt.

This opulent private villa features expansive gardens and sophisticated, luxurious interior finishes, where guests can enjoy a series of design, wellness and culinary activities.

At the heart of the house was the new Range Rover SV Onyx Edition – carefully curated by the Range Rover SV Bespoke team, with just seven examples produced exclusively for Africa.

Inspired by the black talismanic qualities of the semi-precious Onyx stone, which is found naturally on the African continent, the Range Rover SV Onyx Edition features a bespoke black paint and Corinthian Bronze and Anthracite exterior finish including script badging.

The theme continues on the interior, with bespoke Caraway and Ebony leather seats, scatter cushions, ebony contrast stitching and Onyx Edition embroidery.

Irene Kakooza, brand manager, JLR South Africa, said:

“Range Rover House provides an opportunity to engage with our clients beyond the car ownership experience, showcasing Range Rover’s philosophy towards luxury, modernity and design at a more intimate level. We are pleased to bring this unique experience to our clients in South Africa.”
