3 Bedroom House to rent in Hout Bay Central

Set high up on the western slopes of the highly sought-after Penzance Estate, this north-facing 324m² family home offers a rare blend of space, privacy, and tranquility. Positioned on a substantial 1,190m² double stand—one of the largest in the estate—this property is located just a stone's throw from the mountain and the Berg-en-Dal border, ensuring a peaceful, well-established neighborhood setting. Living & Entertaining Designed as an entertainer's paradise, the home boasts bright, sun-drenched, and seamless living areas. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious, open-plan lounge that flows into an enclosed sunroom, offering sweeping views of the ocean, surrounding mountains, and the Sandy Bay hills. The fitted kitchen opens directly into the dining room and out onto a large courtyard, complete with planting beds for your own vegetable and herb garden. The dining area transitions effortlessly to the outdoor entertainment space, featuring a wind-protected swimming pool, a modest bamboo lapa, and a built-in stone braai, all set within established, treed, and lawned gardens. Accommodation A wide passage, lined with additional storage, leads to the home's private quarters: Master Suite: Generously proportioned with an en-suite bathroom, a dedicated dressing room with extensive built-in cupboards, and stunning sea views. Bedrooms 2 & 3: Well-sized, standard bedrooms with built-in cupboards. Bathrooms: Two large, full bathrooms (both featuring a shower, bath, and double vanity), plus an additional guest cloakroom. Bonus Income Potential: A small, separate flatlet/staff room with its own bathroom and private entrance. The landlord may permit this to be sub-let by the tenant, offering an excellent opportunity to offset rental costs in Cape Town's high-demand market. Practicalities & Features Parking: A long, wide driveway with easy turning space allows secure, internal parking for up to 8 vehicles—ideal for hosting guests without the need for street parking. Garaging: 3 garages (2 equipped with built-in work cabinets) with direct internal access past the sunken wine cellar/pantry and up to the entrance hall. Storage: Exceptional storage throughout the main house, plus two additional outside storerooms for garden and pool equipment. Wine cellar and pantry area to make your life just perfect! Security & Privacy: Fully enclosed by plastered brick walls, situated far from busy roads, with zero encroachment or overlooking from neighbors. Location: Adjacent to the Hout Bay International School and just minutes from the beach and central hub. Lease Details & Property Notes Available unfurnished for a long-term lease. Fibre-ready. Utilities (pre-paid electricity, water, and city services) are excluded. (Historical water and utility costs for a family of four average approximately R3,000 per month). Please note: While this home is exceptionally well-kept, neat, and highly functional, it features classic, standard finishes rather than newly refurbished, contemporary styling. It is perfectly suited for a family that values generous space, prime location, and peaceful living.
