House for sale
Live high above the city in historic Bo-Kaap, east-facing site with panoramic Table Mountain to Lion's Head views and rare redevelopment potential — existing two-bedroom, one-bath cottage.
Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Perched high on the slopes of Schotschekloof in the historic Bo-Kaap, this property occupies a prime elevated position with breathtaking panoramic views stretching across Table Mountain, from Devil`s Peak to Lion`s Head, as well as the City Bowl below.
The true value lies in the property`s remarkable location and outstanding redevelopment potential. The east-facing erf offers the opportunity to create a spectacular home in one of Cape Town`s most sought-after and character-rich neighbourhoods. Although the plot is relatively compact, generous coverage rights may allow for a substantial multi-storey residence, similar to neighbouring developments, maximising both living space and the magnificent views.
The existing dwelling comprises two small bedrooms, a bathroom, and an open-plan kitchen and living area. While functional, the current structure is unlikely to contribute significantly to the property`s overall value. Importantly, the house has no apparent heritage significance, which may simplify the approval process for redevelopment, subject to the necessary municipal approvals.
Please note that there is no on-site parking.
Whether you are an investor, developer, or discerning buyer looking to build a bespoke home with iconic views, this property presents a rare opportunity to secure an exceptional position in the heart of Cape Town.
