This substantial heritage home in Walmer Estate offers an extraordinary blend of Victorian character and modern convenience, set across two ERFs with commanding panoramic views of Cape Town's harbour, city skyline, and the slopes of Table Mountain — all clearly visible from the upper level.

The main house presents four spacious bedrooms served by well-appointed bathrooms, complemented by a gracious open-plan lounge and dining room with original Oregon pine floors, a soaring tongue-and-groove timber ceiling, a period fireplace, and a chandelier. Wide French doors open to a patio where the sea breeze and city views can be fully appreciated. The generously proportioned kitchen has been upgraded with grey matt cabinetry, granite-effect countertops, a large freestanding gas range, and extractor — a contemporary fit-out that sits comfortably against the home's heritage bones.

A wide central corridor with arched details, polished hardwood floors, and original pine-trimmed doorways connects the main rooms, preserving the architectural integrity of the original dwelling.

The property also includes a double-storey cottage and a second cottage with three rooms, unlocking significant income-generating or multi-generational living potential. Parking for over nine vehicles — accessed via a wide brick-paved driveway — makes this a rare find in the inner city.

Chester Park is a short stroll away (approx. 147 m), Walmer Estate Primary School is within 310 m, and a handful of neighbourhood eateries including Ghazala Food & Café are within 110 m. Nelson Mandela Boulevard, Gardens Shopping Centre, and the V&A Waterfront are all within easy reach, making the property equally suited to a large family, guesthouse, boutique Airbnb operation, or student/young-professional accommodation.
