Tafelhaus No.17: Boutique City Living at the Foot of Table Mountain
There are few places in Cape Town where the city and the mountain feel so naturally connected.
Oranjezicht is one of them.
Set on the lower slopes of Table Mountain, the neighbourhood offers a rare balance: quiet residential streets, established green spaces and a strong sense of community, while Kloof Street, the CBD and some of Cape Town’s most vibrant restaurants and cultural destinations are all within easy reach.
It is in this setting that Tafelhaus No.17 has been created - a boutique residential development designed around a simple idea: that a home can feel removed from the pace of the city while still keeping you connected to everything that makes Cape Town special.
A boutique approach to city living
Located at 17 Quinton Road, Oranjezicht, Tafelhaus No.17 comprises just 12 two-bedroom apartments.
The intimate scale is intentional. Rather than creating a large residential complex, the development has been designed to feel more personal and considered, with apartments opening onto balconies or patios and views extending towards Table Mountain and across the city.
A landscaped slope of indigenous planting backs onto a grassy sports field, while secure off-street parking adds another layer of convenience.
For residents, it is the kind of setting that encourages a slower daily rhythm - morning walks through De Waal Park, coffee in the neighbourhood, an afternoon on the mountain trails and dinner somewhere along Kloof or Bree Street.
Architecture that belongs here
Tafelhaus No.17 has been developed by Chapter, with architecture by Bruce Wilson Architects and interiors by Maison & Marble.
The architectural approach is contemporary without feeling disconnected from its surroundings. Gentle curves and considered proportions allow the building to sit comfortably within Oranjezicht’s established character, while the interiors bring a warmer, tactile quality to the apartments.
Inside, open-plan living spaces are complemented by walnut veneer cabinetry, fluted glass, satin brass details, arched thresholds and stone surfaces.
The result is an aesthetic that feels refined without being overly formal -contemporary, but designed with longevity in mind.
A home designed around the view
At Tafelhaus, the location is as much a part of the design as the apartment itself.
Large windows and outdoor spaces make the surrounding landscape part of everyday living, with views towards Table Mountain on one side and across Cape Town on the other.
That connection to the outdoors is reinforced by the neighbourhood itself.
De Waal Park is close by, offering open green space and tennis courts, while the Table Mountain trails provide one of the city's most iconic outdoor experiences just moments from home.
For those who prefer to explore the city at street level, the Gardens Centre, Kloof Street, the East City and The Company's Garden are all within easy reach.
It is a lifestyle that feels distinctly Cape Town - connected to nature, culture, food and the energy of the city, without being immersed in it.
Designed for homeowners and investors
While Tafelhaus has all the qualities of a highly desirable primary residence, its limited scale and central location also make it an interesting proposition for property investors.
The development permits short-term letting, creating flexibility for purchasers looking to use their apartment as a home, a city base or an income-generating asset.
With only 12 apartments available, the opportunity is inherently limited. Each residence also includes a parking bay, with selected apartments offering two bays.
For buyers assessing property as an investment, this combination of location, scarcity and flexibility is worth considering.
A connected Revo experience
Tafelhaus No.17 is brought to market by Revo Digital and sold exclusively by Revo Property.
For us, this development reflects the way we believe modern property sales should work: bringing together the right development, the right marketing strategy and a seamless purchasing journey.
Sales are managed through Connect, powered by Revo Digital, our interactive plan and price-list platform that allows prospective buyers to explore available apartments, compare options and access development information in one place.
It is part of a broader Revo approach to development sales, where marketing, technology and property expertise work together rather than operating independently.
Oranjezicht, connected
The appeal of Tafelhaus ultimately comes down to its location.
This is a neighbourhood where the city feels close without dominating everyday life. Where a trip to the shops can become a walk through the park, where Table Mountain is part of the daily backdrop and where some of Cape Town's best-known streets and neighbourhoods are within easy reach.
It is a rare combination - and one that becomes increasingly difficult to replicate.
As Inside Guide recently highlighted in its feature on Tafelhaus No.17, the development offers the opportunity to live between the city and the mountain.
For Revo Property, it is an opportunity to bring a limited collection of thoughtfully designed homes to a neighbourhood where lifestyle, location and long-term property value intersect.
Tafelhaus No.17 is sold exclusively by Revo Property.
