2 Bed House in Mowbray

6 mount street

2 2 1 82 m² 140 m²

Situated in a leafy, gated cul-de-sac in Mowbray is a charming two bedroom double-storey character home. There are only three properties using the Cul de Sac. On one side it is bounded by Mowbray Baptist Church, on the other, the 3-Star Villa Garda Guest House. Situated below the Mostert Mill, you can walk right up the hill and on to Table Mountain.

One enters the home into a double volume lounge with terrazzo tile flooring. A galley style kitchen leads to a quaint courtyard style back garden. The main bathroom is downstairs, and has a full size bathtub and separate shower.

The staircase leads opens up to a full size landing on the second floor, which could be used for a home office or reading snug. The main bedroom has double hung windows opening on to the mews, and an en-suite half bathroom. The fireplace is ornamental as the chimney needs attention, but like the ground floor fireplace could be brought back into working order.

The second bedroom has windows overlooking the leafy back yard.

A high-vaulted ceiling is an added extra, and there is potential to add a large loft room with skylights.

The area is eclectic and diverse, with exceptional accessibility to all areas of Cape Town. The entry point to both the N1 and N2 is a few hundred metres away. Head up the hill and easily access the CBD. For students attending UCT, the Jammie shuttle stops right at the doorstep.

Given that the property is behind a gate, security is excellent. This is a great starter home for first time home buyers, and would also be a good home for UCT students. There is a parking directly in front of the house, and additional secure parking is available for rent front the church. There is direct access from the church parking lot and into the gated mews.
