About this property

Situated in the well-maintained and sought-after Longrove Mews complex in Mowbray, Cape Town, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom ground-floor apartment offers contemporary living with the rare benefit of a private garden. Positioned as a corner unit, it enjoys enhanced privacy and an abundance of natural light throughout.

The modern, open-plan kitchen is the undisputed centrepiece of this home. Tastefully renovated, it features white high-gloss cabinetry, warm solid-timber worktops across both the kitchen island and the U-shaped perimeter counters, and a four-burner stainless-steel gas hob set into the island. A freestanding electric oven sits beneath the perimeter counter alongside a Hisense countertop microwave oven, while a large stainless-steel American-style fridge-freezer with water dispenser commands one wall. White tiled splashbacks and track lighting complete the clean, contemporary aesthetic. The perimeter section wraps to a double sink positioned below a security-barred window, with space for a dishwasher and generous overhead storage throughout.

A second, more compact area adjacent to the dining space features light-wood cabinetry with a darker worktop and houses an additional coffee station and undercounter fridge — providing excellent utility and storage flexibility.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into a bright dining area and living space, with sliding glass doors opening directly onto a private patio and landscaped garden — a standout feature seldom found in apartment living. A bedroom doorway is visible off the living area, confirming a practical, well-connected layout.

The apartment comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylishly updated bathroom. Additional features include secure parking, good complex security, and access to a communal swimming pool.

The location is exceptionally convenient: Central Technical College (CTC) is roughly 37 m away, Damelin's Liesbeek Parkway campus approximately 100 m distant, and Mowbray Maternity Hospital some 230 m from the door. Mowbray Station is within 315 m, while The Fat Cactus and The Coffee Cafe at Gear Change are both under 200 m — making this home perfectly suited to professionals, students, and families alike. Move-in ready and thoughtfully designed, this apartment presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy modern comfort, privacy, and convenience in one of Cape Town's most accessible suburbs.
