Property Details

Nestled in the prestigious Montclair suburb of Somerset West, this extraordinary property offers a rare blend of luxury, versatility, and investment potential, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Helderberg Mountains and False Bay. Just 45 km from Cape Town’s vibrant city centre and 20 km from Stellenbosch’s renowned wine estates, this estate is perfectly positioned for those seeking a serene yet connected lifestyle in the Western Cape’s Helderberg Basin. With its proximity to pristine beaches, world-class wine routes, and a wealth of tourism activities, this property is a dream for investors, executives, multigenerational families, or retirees seeking passive income and high capital growth.
The unique structure of this property for a hybrid strategy yield, could generate a conservative gross monthly income of R141k (assuming an all-year short-term rental option was the preferred income stream). Assuming you purchase include a bond for R6.9mil, with monthly bond instalment of R70k, this investment could thus generate a monthly gross profit of R71k (after bond repayments).
Montclair’s 126% property value growth over the past five years, further ensures exceptional capital appreciation, making this a savvy investment.
Short-term rentals for B&B rooms leverage Somerset West’s tourism and business appeal, while Long-term rentals for flatlets, guesthouse, and office, provide stability, and with this property, you can decide on your preferred income stream and seasonal target markets.
