Exceptional family home with spectacular views

This magnificent property occupies a prestigious City Bowl spot, and enjoys glorious views both of Table Mountain and extending out over the bay. Beautifully presented, the five-bedroomed four-storey property has been exquisitely renovated, creating a wonderful, characterful home, packed with traditional features and meriting its heritage status. A striking, tiled pathway leads to the lovingly-restored front door, behind which is a classic, elegant hallway. This floor houses a farmhouse-style kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances, an opulent yet welcoming living room and separate dining room and an en-suite guest room. On the first floor is the gorgeous main bedroom, which has a private balcony with fantastic views. There are two further bedrooms, both en-suite and both absolutely unique in design and layout. The top floor of the house is currently configured to provide a work space, TV nook and additional bathroom. The option exists to turn this floor into an amazing bedroom, benefiting from the expansive terrace with its spectacular 360 degree vista. Other exterior areas are no less impressive; there is a cosy front stoep with seating, a verdant rear garden and dappled terrace. The lower ground floor houses the utilities and there is state-of-the art solar power with powerful back up batteries, as well as upgraded air-conditioning. The décor, fixtures and finishes throughout are exceptional, as is the quality of the restoration, which includes the original fireplaces. The owners have equipped the property with creative flair, and the furniture could be made available as part of the purchase. Location-wise, it is in the popular City Bowl, close to Gardens and Kloof Street, but also to the mountain for breathtaking hikes. It is a genuinely exceptional house, currently an excellent income generator for short-term rentals but also ready to be a full-time, wonderful family home.
