About this property
Penthouse living at its finest in the heart of Cape Town's CBD — welcome to The Rubik, an iconic address at the corner of Loop Street and Riebeek Street where cosmopolitan urban life meets world-class architecture.
This exceptional duplex penthouse spans three levels across 122 m² of internal living space, complemented by a private balcony, a courtyard, and an exclusive rooftop terrace.
Level 1 delivers a light-filled, open-plan kitchen and living area finished with large-format tile flooring, designer cabinetry with warm timber accents and under-cabinet LED lighting, and floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto a private balcony with magnificent Table Mountain views.
Level 2 houses the main bedroom with a luxurious en-suite bathroom (bath and shower) and commanding Table Mountain vistas, plus a second bedroom with its own en-suite shower bathroom and access to a private courtyard garden.
Level 3 is the crowning feature — a private rooftop terrace with an exclusive braai/barbecue area delivering sweeping, unobstructed views of Devil's Peak, Table Mountain, Lion's Head, and Table Bay.
Residents of The Rubik also enjoy a spectacular shared rooftop entertainment deck featuring a tiled lap/plunge pool, a landscaped garden terrace with timber pergola, and a covered bar-counter seating area, all framed by panoramic Atlantic Ocean, harbour, Signal Hill, and Lion's Head views.
Additional highlights include 24-hour concierge and security services, and two secure basement parking bays. The apartment is fully Airbnb- and short-term letting-friendly, making it an exceptional investment proposition in one of Cape Town's highest-demand precincts.
The location is second to none: Nice Café at Church House is barely 56 m away, The Company's Garden is approximately 140 m on foot, and the broader CBD neighbourhood puts fine dining, galleries, the V&A Waterfront, and the cable car to Table Mountain all within easy reach. The price includes VAT.
