About this property
Set in one of Upper Vredehoek's most sought-after pockets, this beautifully maintained ground-floor apartment in the boutique 'Edward Mansions' block of only five units offers a rare opportunity in Cape Town's sought-after City Bowl foothills — with Table Mountain as a dramatic backdrop.
The ±105 m² home features three well-proportioned bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a generous open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area that flows naturally from front to back. The renovated kitchen is a standout — fitted with white shaker-style cabinetry, a striking blue-and-white patchwork tile splashback, solid wood countertops, pendant lighting, a gas/electric range, dishwasher, and ample storage. Parquet timber flooring runs throughout the living areas, lending warmth and character.
A glass-enclosed entrance sunroom with tile-and-timber flooring acts as a welcoming transition between the lush garden and the interior, flooding with natural greenery views. The side passage features a raised brick planter bed of aloes and succulents, with Table Mountain visible above the neighbouring roofline — a quintessential Cape Town scene.
Located within approximately 290 m of Shift Espresso Bar and Deer Park Café, and roughly 300 m from Wexford Road Park and Rocklands Avenue Park, the lifestyle credentials are exceptional. Herzlia High School and Herzlia Highlands Primary are within easy walking distance (±230–240 m), making this equally attractive to families.
The block is quiet, secure, and well-run. Airbnb short-term letting is permitted (minimum two-week stay), and pets are welcome subject to body corporate approval. On-street parking is readily available directly outside. The flexible three-bedroom layout can be reconfigured into a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home if desired.
