The Rawson Property Group’s declared aim of gaining a greater foothold in the upper bracket residential sector has been taken a step further by the Rawson Properties Sea Point franchise which now has two decidedly ‘prestigious’ Atlantic Seaboard homes on their books, both listed at around R25 million.
The first of these (the second has been covered in a separate announcement) is being marketed by the Rawson Property Group’s agents Ryan Hamburger and Louise Baker on an exclusive mandate basis at R24,995,000.
“Properties of this kind come onto the market only once or twice a year and this home,” said Hamburger, “epitomizes everything that has made beach bungalows well-known around the world. Situated just one row from one of Cape Town’s most famous and well frequented beaches, Clifton Third, the bungalow is suited in every way to an outdoor entertainment lifestyle that this area is well known for. The bungalow has large open-plan living and communal areas where there is a freestanding stove and full length glass doors which link in with an even larger, partially covered outdoor patio and plunge pool. The home also has a small private garden and both the deck and the communal rooms take in sweeping views of the Atlantic”.
Conforming in every way to the Clifton architectural rulings which have done so much to maintain the high standards in this precinct, the bungalow, which is on two levels, is a wooden structure with Oregon pine floors and wood clad walls and ceilings. Even the kitchen tops are made of a hard, very attractive, polished wood.
The communal areas, which are on the upper level, in fact form the ground/entrance floor, while the two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, are on the lower floor.
“Such homes, situated just minutes from Cape Town’s trendiest entertainment hub, Camps Bay, which is teeming with top class bars, restaurants and celebrities alike, are extremely sought-after,” said Hamburger, “and are more often than not passed down from one generation to the next.”
“Of all the housing in the Cape Peninsula, Clifton homes have best resisted the downward trend that hit the upper bracket home market in the 2007 to 2009 downturn.”
“The average price levels here,” said Hamburger, “are above those of 2007/2008 today and in 2012 were at a peak level of just under R20 million.”
“With so much to offer, I simply cannot think of a more delightful place to live in the whole of Greater Cape Town,” added Hamburger.
