About this property
Nestled in the heart of Newlands Village, this enchanting 3-bedroom heritage cottage offers the rare combination of timeless Cape character and generous proportions. The single-storey whitewashed façade — framed by established rose bushes, mature greenery, and a classic corrugated-iron roof — sets the scene for the charm found throughout. Inside, original wooden floors, soaring high ceilings, and period detailing speak to the home's heritage status, while the well-considered layout provides comfortable living across three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen, lounge, and a garage.
The private garden is a highlight, anchored by a generously sized pool — a perfect retreat during the Cape's warm summers. The 311 m² floor area is spacious by village-cottage standards, making this a home that lives far larger than its street frontage suggests.
The location is unbeatable: Almond Park and the Upper Liesbeek River Garden are within a 5-minute stroll (±420–460 m), and Paradise Park, Newlands is just around the corner (±533 m). Families will appreciate the cluster of pre-primary and primary schools within roughly 1 km, while a coffee shop and convenience retail are similarly close. Iconic mountain views frame the backdrop, with the Newlands mountain range clearly visible from the street.
