Property Description
Set in Bakoven, the quiet southern end of Camps Bay, 60 Rottingdean Road looks out over the Atlantic Ocean, the Twelve Apostles and Lion's Head, a short walk from Bakoven beach and the Camps Bay strip. The freehold property has about 500 m² under roof on a 595 m² erf (596 m² cadastral), zoned General Residential 2 (GR2).
The four-bedroom main residence is arranged around the view. A sunny lounge and a separate TV room connect with the open-plan kitchen and dining area, which opens onto a Balau wood deck and swimming pool facing the Atlantic sunsets.
Alongside the main house are eight studio suites, each with its own en-suite bathroom and private entrance, as well as staff accommodation with its own bathrooms. A double garage and additional off-street parking complete the property.
With 12 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, the property suits a large household, a family that wants separate space for extended family and guests, or a buyer looking to modernise.
Important information for buyers: extension plans for all eight studios have been drawn up but have not yet been approved by the City of Cape Town. The proposed extensions remain subject to Council approval, and this is declared in the seller's disclosure form. The title deed restricts the property to residential use and contains building-line, height, subdivision and design conditions. Buyers should confirm any intended use, alteration or development with the City of Cape Town. The title deed and the disclosure form are in the bidders' pack.
