Set in one of Oranjezicht’s most sought-after historical pockets, lies this distinguished Victorian residence that blends historic charm, modern technology, versatility and refined city living. Equally suited to families, investors or those seeking an elegant lock-up-and-go, the property is perfectly positioned for boutique hospitality use or as a holiday home with lucrative Airbnb potential being within close proximity to the lifestyle offerings of Kloof Street, neighbourhood cafés, parks and the hiking trails on Table Mountain.
Rich in character and architectural detail, the home showcases soaring high ceilings, sash windows, original wooden floors and three period fireplaces, with a variety of enchanting outdoor spaces including a roof terrace with 360 degree views of Table Mountain, Lion’s Head and the City Bowl across Table Bay.
The ground floor welcomes you through a charming front courtyard perfect for sunrise coffees, up a few steps through the ornate original front door, into a grand passage that passes a luxurious en-suite, air-conditioned bedroom with a charming bay window, the beautifully preserved wooden staircase, a jewel box-like guest toilet and to the classic formal lounge with fireplace and glamorous chandelier. The lounge leads to an eat-in kitchen opening up onto a plantation style, private courtyard garden with a water feature - a perfect sanctuary for relaxed entertaining.
The first floor offers three plush air-conditioned bedrooms, two en-suite, along with a separate bathroom for the front bedroom with a matching bay window to the bedroom below. This level enjoys a balcony that spans the full width of the facade and captures elevated views across the city and of the spectacular Devil’s Peak and Table Mountain. The bedroom suite at the back of this level has the added luxury of an intimate balcony that looks up at Table Mountain over the lush kitchen courtyard below.
The second floor reveals a spacious, air-conditioned loft space used as a TV room, study and reading nook with a bathroom. Double doors open onto a large terrace with sweeping views over Table Mountain and the city skyline — an exceptional space for practicing your morning yoga and entertaining friends and family.
