Elevated acre in prime Bishopscourt with exceptional potential

Set on just over an acre of elevated land in one of Bishopscourt’s most established residential pockets, this five-bedroom home offers a rare opportunity to secure space, privacy and long-term value.

The 4,047m² erf enjoys an elevated position that creates a lovely sense of openness and outlook. The existing home has generous proportions and a flexible layout, making it ideal for a full renovation or the creation of a bespoke family home.

At the heart of the home is a north-facing central courtyard with a swimming pool, which naturally draws the living areas outdoors and creates a relaxed space for entertaining and family living. The elevated position allows for partial city views and a feeling of light and space that is seldom found.

The living areas are generous and well laid out, with multiple reception rooms, a central TV lounge with a fireplace opening onto the courtyard, and a large games or entertainment room with easy access from the carport. The kitchen overlooks the garden and tennis court and offers a practical family hub with a central island, ample storage and a separate scullery.

There are five well-proportioned bedrooms and four bathrooms. The main suite opens onto the courtyard and includes a walk-in dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are comfortable in size and well suited to family living or guests.

The established garden offers privacy, tranquillity and space, and includes a tennis court, staff accommodation and a separate studio — ideal for a home office, gym or creative space. Additional features include solar power with inverter and a comprehensive security system.

This is a wonderful opportunity to secure a substantial Bishopscourt property with excellent land value and the scope to create something truly special in one of Cape Town’s most sought-after suburbs.
