Positioned in the heart of Rondebosch's prestigious Golden Mile, this rare Cape Dutch Victorian residence offers timeless character, generous proportions and an enviable lifestyle address. The home's distinctive curvilinear gable, slate roof, twin chimneys and louvred shutters are a testament to its heritage, while the well-established garden, sparkling swimming pool and terracotta-tiled entertaining terrace invite relaxed outdoor living.

Step inside through the original solid-wood front door — crowned by exquisite stained-glass panels — into a broad entrance hall with soaring ceilings, arched fanlights and classic white cornicing. A long tiled corridor connects the principal rooms, opening to a formal dining room with rich hardwood floors and a comfortable lounge with characterful bay windows.

The main house offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a traditional kitchen, formal dining room, sitting lounge and a dedicated study or home office. A separate en-suite flatlet with private access provides excellent income potential or extended-family accommodation. Three secure off-street parking bays, a single garage, a workshop room and a dedicated laundry room round out a remarkably complete package.

Outdoors, the tiled patio with cast-iron garden furniture and a gas braai/BBQ overlooks the pool and leafy garden — ideal for Cape Town's long, sunny days. Bougainvillea, palms and mature trees frame the property in greenery.

The location is exceptional: Rondebosch Boys' Preparatory School is approximately 134 m away, Bishops Diocesan College roughly 249 m, and Oakhurst Girls' Primary School around 379 m — fulfilling the description's promise of walkable access to leading schools. Rondebosch Park (≈121 m), Silwood Centre shopping mall (≈348 m), a KWIKSPAR (≈360 m) and Rondebosch Station (≈386 m) are all within easy reach. Whether renovated to its full potential or enjoyed as-is, this property is a rare opportunity in one of Cape Town's most coveted family suburbs.
