Grammy Award-winning DJ and producer Nkosinathi “Black Coffee” Maphumulo has made headlines once again — this time for his lavish new purchase in one of South Africa’s most exclusive neighbourhoods. According to News24, the internationally acclaimed artist recently bought a stunning five-level villa in Clifton, Cape Town, for a jaw-dropping R157 million.

The luxury home, famously known as “The Pentagon,” is perched on Nettleton Road — often referred to as the most expensive street in South Africa. The sale was completed through Black Coffee’s company, Little Ark Holdings, and has been reported as one of the highest residential property sales in the country this year. Originally listed for R160 million, the property was sold for R157 million, making it one of the most talked-about deals in the real estate market.
Designed by world-renowned architect Stefan Antoni, the modern masterpiece spans over 940 square meters and offers everything you could imagine in a dream home. The villa includes five en-suite bedrooms, a private cinema, a gym, and staff quarters. For convenience and luxury, it also has a glass elevator and covered parking for several vehicles.
The home’s design embraces open spaces and natural light, with floor-to-ceiling windows that perfectly frame the breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the iconic Twelve Apostles mountain range. The highlight of the mansion is its 16-meter heated rim-flow infinity pool, which stretches out over the edge of the terrace, blending seamlessly with the ocean horizon. The double-volume entertainment area flows onto the pool deck, creating an ideal space for relaxation or hosting elite gatherings.
This impressive purchase comes shortly after Black Coffee finalized his divorce from actress Enhle Mbali, sparking public speculation about the timing of his latest investment. However, for the globally celebrated DJ, this new chapter seems to reflect not just success, but also a fresh start in one of the most breathtaking homes on the African continent.
With this R157 million Clifton mansion, Black Coffee has once again proven that he’s not just a master behind the decks — but also a man with a taste for the finer things in life.
