Commercial flats for sale in Rondebosch

Exclusive Mandate

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully operational, professionally managed residential apartment block in one of Cape Town's most desirable and consistently performing rental nodes.

Positioned on a generous 1,391sqm erf, The Palm House comprises 21 stylishly furnished, turnkey apartments, including a premium penthouse with sweeping mountain views. The units have been thoughtfully renovated to a high standard, offering a cohesive, contemporary product that attracts quality tenants and underpins strong, resilient rental demand.

This offering presents a rare opportunity to secure 100% ownership of an entire income-producing block—delivering immediate scale, operational efficiency, and full strategic control, without the constraints of sectional title fragmentation.

The property enjoys excellent connectivity and lifestyle convenience, with easy access to major arterial routes in and out of the city, enhancing its appeal to working professionals and students alike. It is within walking distance of popular local shops and eateries, while its close proximity to University of Cape Town and the renowned Baxter Theatre Centre further strengthens tenant demand and long-term letting stability.

The property is zoned GR4, providing meaningful flexibility and optionality. An investor may pursue sectionalisation to unlock enhanced capital value, while also capitalising on identified excess bulk, creating a compelling medium-term development or expansion opportunity.

Beyond its income profile, The Palm House offers a range of lifestyle-oriented amenities that support tenant retention and enhance its competitive positioning. These include a landscaped communal garden, entertainment area with braai and pizza oven, and a convenient on-site laundry facility.

Parking is well accommodated with five extra-large tandem garages and five secure off-street bays.
