Calming Victorian Apartment in a Hidden Garden Oasis

Welcome to a unique sanctuary in the city - a beautifully restored Victorian apartment that blends timeless African character with elegant Scandinavian design. Thoughtfully furnished with curated art, books, and natural materials, this apartment offers a warm, welcoming feel with just the right amount of soul.

Set within a heritage building, the apartment opens onto a lush, tree-filled courtyard where squirrels play and birds sing - a rare green escape in the heart of Cape Town. Whether you're sipping morning coffee beneath the trees or enjoying a quiet evening indoors, you'll feel both connected and cocooned.

Inside, you'll find:

  • Newly renovated interiors with wood and polished cement floors
  • A compact but well-equipped Scandi-style kitchen (induction hob, oven, half-size fridge with freezer)
  • A calm bedroom with TV and luxurious bedding on a Queen XL bed
  • A stylish bathroom with personal drawer space
  • Thoughtfully selected furniture and decor that tell a story
  • Yoga mat, foam roller, wooden blocks & bands for your at-home wellness
  • A Bose speaker for your soundtrack of choice
  • There’s also a wide, comfy couch and an inflatable mattress for extra sleeping space.

Note: No microwave or washing machine, but laundry is easily arranged through a convenient local service.

Comfort All Year Round

The apartment remains pleasantly cool in summer and comes with an electric blanket for cosy winter nights. The building is staffed with 24/7 reception and security for peace of mind.

The Garden

The large communal garden is a hidden gem — often quiet and peaceful, with stone benches, sculptures, and a small fountain. It’s the perfect place to unwind, journal, or enjoy a glass of local wine under the trees.
