About this property

Situated in the heart of Cape Town's CBD, this stylish studio apartment at The Tokyo offers an exceptional urban lifestyle in one of the city's most sought-after residential towers. The building is instantly recognisable by its striking blue-glass façade and grey-brick podium, with bold street-level branding anchoring the corner of a vibrant city block.

The 25 m² studio has been finished to a high standard, featuring warm oak-effect engineered timber flooring throughout, black track lighting on white ceilings, and a sleek open-plan layout that maximises every square metre. A full-height, high-gloss black wardrobe unit anchors the sleeping area, while the integrated kitchen — also finished in matte and gloss black cabinetry with a granite-effect countertop — includes a hob, oven, extractor, microwave and washing machine. A dedicated desk space with monitor connectivity makes the unit equally suitable for remote working or student accommodation.

A separate bedroom (also within the complex, visible in images) enjoys natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows framing views toward Table Mountain and the surrounding city skyline — an outlook that underlines the building's premier CBD positioning.

Building amenities are exceptional: a 24-hour concierge and well-considered security greet residents at the hotel-style entrance; the rooftop boasts one of Cape Town's most impressive rim-flow pools, a fully equipped entertainment area with braais, and sweeping 360-degree views of the Mother City. Residents also benefit from a fully equipped gym and an in-house coffee shop and restaurant. Short-term letting is permitted, making this an outstanding investment opportunity.

The Tokyo is steps from The Company's Garden (approx. 140 m), with a coffee shop at Nice Cafe at Church House (approx. 56 m) and a supermarket at Waalburg Building (approx. 57 m) virtually on the doorstep. Multiple educational institutions, a bus stop, and the full amenity offering of the Cape Town CBD are all within easy walking distance.
