About this property

Nestled in the well-established suburb of Ottery in Cape Town's Southern Suburbs, this classic single-storey bungalow sits on a generous 673 m² stand and offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, a separate bathroom and toilet, an open-plan kitchen/dining area, and a spacious lounge — all brimming with retro character and ready for a new owner's vision.

The home's hipped dark-grey tiled roof, white rendered façade with deep red-accented window sills and reveals, and decorative precast concrete boundary wall deliver unmistakable kerb appeal. A wide asphalt driveway leads through a sliding gate to a single garage with a blue roller door and an additional covered parking bay, providing secure off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The generous, level rear garden is enclosed by timber lap and precast boundary walls, features a mature broad-canopy shade tree, a paved concrete pathway, a clothes-line, and a detached outbuilding — perfect as a workshop or additional storage.

Inside, the spacious lounge is carpeted and fitted with a brass ceiling fan, large sliding-door windows dressed with white vertical blinds, and textured plaster walls — a solid, light-filled canvas awaiting modernisation. A framed seascape print on the wall nods to the Cape coastal setting.

The location adds real everyday convenience: Applemist Park, Adamastor Park, and Ottery Field are all within roughly 290 m — ideal for weekend walks or outdoor play. Friendly Supermarket, Food Lover's, and Foodlands Supermarket are within approximately 585 m, while Battswood Primary School is under 690 m and Otters' Creek Pre-Primary School just over 710 m away — an especially appealing address for young families.

Whether you are an investor seeking solid rental yield, a renovator chasing your next project, or a family looking to put down roots, this property offers excellent bones in a well-connected, community-oriented suburb.
