EXCLUSIVE MANDATE

This quaint cottage is 101 years old and is one of the original cottages built in Hout Bay which has been extended over the years to provide 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

The main living area is truly authentic with the original hardwood floors and ceilings. French doors lead to an entertainment deck where you can enjoy breakfasts or barbecues with absolutely magnificent sea views all the way out to Kommetjie lighthouse.

There is one bedroom as well as one bathroom leading off the living area. All bedrooms have French doors which lead onto the surrounding wooden deck with the most enviable views.

The kitchen is open plan with a sunny dining area conservatory which leads to a passage with 3 bedrooms, one en-suite and a family bathroom.

There is no restriction to rebuild or remodel this home which has already been confirmed by the Cape Heritage Association, if you may wish to do so.

This beautiful secluded upmarket area provides close proximity to shops, restaurants as well as 10 minute walking distance from the beach.

The lush garden is full of beautiful indigenous trees and shrubs which flower profusely with Proteas and Strelitzias (Birds of Paradise) depending on the season.

The City centre of Cape Town is a mere 25 minutes away.

Please contact Helen for a private viewing today. This property is quite unique and will not be on the market for very long.

Hout Bay was originally a predominantly forested area, hence the name, originally Dutch. They started a small farming community with fertile soil where some of the best crops were harvested in the 17th century while satisfying the Dutch demand for timber to keep up with local construction. Hout Bay was also a Kho Khoi fishing village and is still one of the main fishing harbours in the Western Cape offering a variety of freshly caught fish on a daily basis.

Today Hout Bay is a very popular holiday destination for local as well as international visitors, many who have subsequently bought properties here. Hout Bay offers a large variety of outdoor mountain and marine activities. You will often spot dolphins frolicking in the bay and occasionally a whale or two!

There is a convenient selection of shops here as well as a great choice of restaurants and even two vineyards. There are many scenic drives around this beautiful area, in particular, the world-famous Chapman's Peak drive.
