Timeless Character, Established Airbnb & Exciting Expansion Potential in Rondebosch. Nestled in one of Cape Town's most sought-after suburbs, this beautifully preserved 100+ year-old home combines timeless character with an established short-term rental opportunity. Featuring rich wooden floors, a magnificent wooden staircase and beautiful period features, the property offers charm that is increasingly difficult to find. Set over two levels, the property currently offers 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, with 5 bedrooms successfully operating as short-term accommodation. The existing Airbnb setup provides an immediate income opportunity, while the property's generous layout offers significant potential to expand the accommodation offering even further. With existing spaces that can potentially be reconfigured and utilised more efficiently, there is an opportunity for a new owner to create additional rooms or self-contained rental units, subject to the necessary approvals. The property can therefore be developed beyond its current configuration, allowing an investor to increase the number of rentable spaces and maximise the property's income-producing capacity. Located close to Newlands Stadium, as well as UCT, leading schools, restaurants, shopping centres and major transport routes, the location is ideally suited to short-term accommodation and offers strong potential for year-round demand, including sporting and event periods. The property also features fibre, an 8kW solar inverter, 8 solar panels and 2 x 5kWh batteries, as well as CCTV, perimeter beams, electric fencing and secure parking for up to six vehicles. An exceptional opportunity to acquire an established Airbnb operation with the potential to expand significantly, add further rentable spaces and unlock substantially more income from the existing property.
