Step into a truly exceptional Cape Town residence where historic charm, sophisticated design and modern luxury come together beautifully. Situated in the heart of Cape Town, this remarkable home offers a unique layout designed around privacy, comfort and effortless entertaining.
From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed through a charming private gate that opens onto your own secluded patio — setting the tone for the character and exclusivity that awaits inside.
Elegant Entrance & First Bathroom
As you enter the home, the first bathroom is positioned to your left and offers an impressive combination of practicality and luxury.
To the right, you will find extensive built-in cupboard space incorporating hanging rails, shelving and drawers. One of the cupboards cleverly houses the washing machine and tumble dryer, along with a fitted safe and additional storage for cleaning appliances.
The cupboards are fitted with automatic lighting that switches on when the doors are opened and switches off when they are closed, adding a thoughtful touch of convenience and luxury.
At the centre of the bathroom is a comfortable couch paired with a striking stone-look footrest, creating an unexpected yet inviting seating area.
A dedicated vanity station with drawers provides ample space for toiletries and personal essentials. Towards the rear of the bathroom is the basin with additional storage underneath, while a well-appointed shower sits centrally at the back and the toilet is privately positioned in the opposite corner.
The bathroom is finished with beautiful barn-style doors and elegant wooden flooring, adding warmth and character to the space.
