About this property

Exclusive Sole Mandate: Fully Furnished - Step into a world of refined urban elegance with this exquisitely renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom luxury apartment, ideally situated in the heart of Cape Town’s thriving City Centre. Located in the historically rich Glaston House, just off the ever-vibrant Bree Street, this expansive 111m² residence blends contemporary design with heritage charm, offering the ultimate lifestyle for discerning homeowners, savvy investors or jet-setting professionals. With Airbnb approval and pet-friendly policies in place, this property presents an exceptional opportunity for both lifestyle and income. Glaston House is more than just a residence — it’s a treasured chapter of Cape Town’s architectural story. As the city began expanding toward Signal Hill in the late 18th century, affluent merchant families established elegant homes between Sea Street (now Strand Street) and Bree Street. Glaston House is one of the few enduring structures from this era, proudly showcasing a rare sculptural detail by celebrated Cape architect Anton Anreith. Set within the building’s cornice and pediment, this is the last known example of such detailed embossment still surviving in Cape Town — a city that once boasted over twenty. Inside, the apartment is a masterclass in contemporary luxury. A spacious, open-plan living area flows effortlessly into a striking designer kitchen fitted with a central island, modern finishes, and energy-efficient chandeliers. A custom integrated wall unit adds stylish functionality to the living space, while high ceilings and carefully curated textures create an atmosphere of calm sophistication. The main bedroom is a serene retreat with a luxurious ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom and additional exquisite bathroom are ideal for guests and family alike. Every inch of the apartment has been thoughtfully designed to offer flexibility — whether you're making this your forever home, a chic city escape, or a high-performing Airbnb investment. With its Airbnb-friendly setup and pet-permissive policy, the apartment caters perfectly to Cape Town’s vibrant tourism and business travel market. Host with confidence in a building that allows short-term lets, while enjoying the comfort of a secure, professionally managed block with excellent 24-hour security and access control. 2-Secure dedicated parking bays are an added BONUS! Step outside and immerse yourself in the pulse of the city. Bree Street, known for its eclectic eateries, rooftop bars, cafés, galleries and boutiques, is on your doorstep. Public transport is easily accessible, making weekend getaways to the Atlantic Seaboard or commutes to the airport effortless. This is more than just an apartment — it’s an opportunity to own a piece of Cape Town’s heritage while enjoying all the benefits of modern city living and short-term rental income.
