1 Bedroom Apartment To Let In De Waterkant

Luxury Top-Floor Living Above the City | Available till 1 October | De Waterkant | 1 Bed 1 Bath
Some apartments are simply places to live. This unit is something else entirely — a meticulously curated, top-floor retreat where interior design, architectural quality, and location converge to deliver one of Cape Town’s most exceptional rental offerings.

The Space
Step inside and the calibre is immediately apparent. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is anchored by rich OGGIE engineered wood flooring, a bespoke designer rattan pendant light, and a working fireplace — the kind of feature that transforms a space on a Cape Town winter evening. The kitchen is a standout in its own right: a bold navy-and-white palette with a striking Delft-inspired feature wall, a freestanding island, mint glass splashback, gas hob, integrated oven and dishwasher, and under-cabinet lighting finished with a gold detail strip. This is not a show kitchen — it is a fully equipped, professional-grade space designed to be used and enjoyed.

The Bedroom
The bedroom is pure hotel-suite. Bespoke botanical wallpaper envelops the room in a soft, elegant atmosphere, complemented by a sculptural upholstered headboard, crisp white linen, a solid dark-wood dressing table, and generous full-length built-in wardrobes. Sheer linen curtains filter the natural light beautifully. A ducted air conditioning system ensures year-round comfort without interrupting the clean ceiling lines.

The Bathroom
The bathroom matches the calibre of the rest of the apartment — large-format stone-look tiles, a freestanding vessel basin on a stone-top vanity, a glass-enclosed shower with dramatic black penny-tile feature wall, rainfall showerhead, and a chrome heated towel rail.

The Terrace
At 12 m², the private terrace is a genuine outdoor room. Glass balustrades keep the views completely unobstructed — Table Mountain draped in cloud to the south, the Cape Town CBD skyline to the east, and harbour glimpses to the north. Whether it’s a morning coffee or a sundowner, this terrace is where the magic of this top-floor position is felt most. Equipped with a gas weber.

The Building
Old Cape Quarter is a new-build development — not an older building with a renovated apartment inside it. Every element, from the designer brass-lit lobby to the building-wide infrastructure, is brand new. This matters. Residents enjoy modern electrics and plumbing throughout, backup power, high-speed fibre, 24-hour security and access control, and the peace of mind that comes with a purpose-built luxury building. One secure basement parking bay is included — an increasingly rare commodity in De Waterkant.

The Location
Positioned at the crossroads of De Waterkant, the CBD, Green Point, and the Atlantic Seaboard, Old Cape Quarter places everything within reach. The V&A Waterfront, Bree Street, the Cape Quarter Lifestyle Centre, and De Waterkant’s cobblestone café strip are all a short walk away.
