The glamorous kitchen and dining area leads out onto an alfresco space, reminiscent of classic Italian courtyard gardens
Explore this stay
Hidden in plain sight, this soulful heritage home in Cape Town’s Gardens neighbourhood marries a century of history with a show-stopper collection of contemporary African art
The Lowdown
Set at the foot of Table Mountain, tucked away behind greenery, this pastel pink heritage home (the color choice a tribute to the iconic Belmond Mount Nelson hotel nearby) offers a stylish escape in the heart of Cape Town. Far enough from the flash and dash of the city that the feeling of seclusion and privacy is absolute, when in reality, it’s only a short walk from neighborhood cafes, chic design stores and must-try restaurants
Sleeping Arrangements
This spacious home consists of 6 bedrooms, all en-suite. The main house features 1 king and 3 queen-sized beds upstairs, with ample closet space and magnificent views. The adjoining apartment has 1 twin and 1 queen-sized bed, both en-suite
What To Expect
Built in the 1920s, this villa has been reimagined with open, flowing spaces, a touch of Scandinavian style, and two floors of pure luxury (including a library and private wine cellar). The glamorous kitchen and dining area leads out onto an alfresco space, reminiscent of classic Italian courtyard gardens. With Cape Town’s beautifully warm summers, and the closeness of Table Mountain (it feels like it is quite literally in the garden), it is one of the city’s most enchanting outdoor spaces
The Art House Difference
The home’s collection of contemporary African art really sets it apart. There’s a mix of new artists and more established names, from the Jake Aikman landscape in the landing to Lorraine Loots and Paul Edmunds in the living areas
