Light and spacious classic flat with modern touches, suitable for 2 couples sharing, or a couple with 2 children. The main bedroom and lounge boasts sweeping views of magnificent Table Mountain. Centrally located in Upper Gardens, in walking distance of the upmarket Gardens Shopping Center and MyCiti Bus. It includes secure off-street parking too. It is mountain facing, therefore it's tranquil with no traffic noise.
The block in which the flat is situated was built in the 1970s, when they still made very spacious apartments. It has teak parquet flooring throughout. This flat consists of a kitchen, a bathroom, 2 bedrooms, a lounge (which is open to the kitchen) and a glassed-in balcony. There is also a dedicated undercover off-street parking space inside the complex grounds. The block has big verdant gardens to the back and to the front, with benches under the trees, a small stream and a BBQ (braai) spot.
The kitchen is modern with engineered stone countertops and lots of cupboards which are stocked with cutlery, crockery and lots of cooking utensils. The appliances consist of a big fridge, ceramic cooking hob, a microwave/convection combination oven, kettle and toaster. Note that there is no big traditional oven. The convection oven roasts and bakes like a normal oven would. There is also no dishwasher, but there is a double sink.
The renovated modern bathroom has a shower over a small bathtub. There is also a washing machine in the bathroom. For drying laundry there is a drying rack, or one can use the washing lines down stairs in the garden.
The lounge has classic furniture with a 6 seater dining room table, which is also a good place to do some work on your laptop. The leather couch is very comfortable, but not quite long enough for an adult to sleep on. There is also a breakfast counter with high chairs.
The main bedroom is furnished with French style classic furniture. The bed is an extra length queen size bed, so tall people can sleep more comfortably. It has an interleading door to the glassed in balcony. You can wake up and take in the magnificent view of Table Mountain from your bed.
The second bedroom has a queen size standard length bed and 2 cupboards.
The glassed-in balcony has an old school couch facing the mountain, from which you can enjoy watching the sun go down over Lion's Head.
In order to accommodate families with babies, we have a camping cot (pack-and-play), baby feeding chair (high chair), and a baby bath. We also have a single blow-up floor mattress to accommodate a fifth person. Please note that all these facilities are available on request only, since they are not stored on the premises. If you would like to avail yourself of these, please let us know upon booking. Please also note that our property is by no means child-proof, but we do welcome families who are ok with that.
