Hiding in the attic of a historic building near District Six Museum, the open-plan loft is home to the largest collection of feline artifacts and cat memorabilia in Africa! With Cape Town’s best coffee, galleries, fine-dining eateries and high-end cocktail bars all on your doorstep, this is East City living at its best and ideal for couples traveling with cats or a kid.
The space
Hidden in the roof of a historic tea warehouse and print factory in East City, lies a sky parlor unlike any!
Kick back like a cat on an urban safari as you spot feline fandom hiding in the most unusual places throughout the enormous apartment.
The 120-square-meter open-plan loft is light and airy, with original hardwood floors, high ceilings, exposed brick walls, and industrial steel beams framing the space. Floor-to-ceiling stacking doors open onto a sunny deck and balconies, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor feel.
The space comfortably accommodates up to 3 guests:
1 x King-size bed
1 x Double sleeper couch in the living area
The loft seamlessly flows from the bedroom to the dining area and lounge. The kitchen nook is fully equipped for your needs.
The enclosed bathroom is fitted with a large corner bathtub and a frameless glass shower. The unique, one-of-a-kind corrugated swinging "Dirk" door adds to the quirky charm.
A walk-in closet and storage area behind the bathroom provides more than enough space for clothes and luggage, and a washing machine is available for your convenience.
Get your best "catnap" or "cat stretch" on the upper patio, complete with a giant indoor tree and other plants, native to South Africa.
Bath like a cat; without water(!) when you kick back in the custom Victorian Cast Iron Tub designed to serve as a couch on the outdoor seating area of the upper deck.
At dusk and down, take in the hypnotic light show as the sun bounces off the cityscape like a cat chasing a laser.
Every piece of art and decor has a story, from the repurposed items to the unique finds from local Cape Town artisans.
Located right in the heart of Cape Town's East City, the apartment is an ideal base for exploring the Mother City on foot. Step outside and find yourself in the heart of Cape Town's vibrant East City, a neighborhood known for its creative and eco-friendly scene. From your doorstep, it’s just a short walk to the iconic Truth Coffee Roasting and a block away from the culturally significant District Six Museum. Explore the area's thriving collection of art galleries, sustainable boutiques, and high-end restaurants like Belly of the Beast, Galjoen, Seebamboes, Lunacy, Tambourine and Yakiniku at East City Grill, located in the tallest building constructed out of Hemp bricks in the Southern Hemisphere.
