Newlands, Cape Town

A sanctuary on the slopes of Table Mountain, where nature, elegance and breathtaking views converge.

Occupying an elevated position in one of Cape Town’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, this remarkable double-storey residence combines generous proportions, exceptional versatility and an extraordinary natural setting.

With Newlands Forest bordering the property and sweeping views across the valley towards the Hottentots Holland Mountains, the home enjoys a rare sense of privacy and tranquility. From mornings surrounded by the greenery of the forest to evenings framed by distant mountain silhouettes, the setting is one of the property's defining features.

From the moment you enter, the scale of the residence becomes apparent. Expansive living spaces and an effortless connection between indoors and out create a home equally suited to sophisticated entertaining and relaxed family living.

The elegant lounge and dining areas flow onto a beautifully tiled terrace, featuring a rim-flow pool, with the far-reaching views providing a spectacular backdrop. Long summer lunches overlooking the mountains, sunset drinks beside the pool and quiet mornings immersed in the surrounding greenery are all part of the lifestyle this exceptional setting affords.

The substantial kitchen is designed to accommodate both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining, complemented by a separate scullery and dedicated laundry area.

Accommodation is exceptionally generous, comprising five bedrooms (two with kitchenettes), one large study/office and seven bathrooms (4 en-suite). The scale and layout provide considerable flexibility for a large family, visiting guests, home offices or additional private leisure spaces.

A HOME OF EXCEPTIONAL VERSATILITY

Currently operated as a guesthouse, the property offers an unusual degree of flexibility for its next owner.

It can readily become a substantial private family residence, while a purchaser wishing to retain its hospitality use may have the opportunity to continue the existing guesthouse operation, subject to separate agreement regarding the business.

This combination of residential appeal and hospitality potential adds another dimension to an already distinctive property.
