Number 29 is four levels of stylish wonder that blend authentic Victorian heritage and contemporary living. The fusion is so beautifully crafted, it needs to be seen in person. There are antique fireplaces and modern black steel living together harmoniously, original Oregon wooden floors and pressed ceilings alongside Scandinavian-style symmetry and pared down simplicity. Art deco pieces, blonde wood furnishings, subway tiles and mostly monochromatic décor are all calm and soothing. There’s plenty of space for 12 people across three storeys of living and sleeping area. The six bedrooms on various levels, 5 of the bedrooms have en-suite or private bathrooms and one bedroom does not, and there are multiple living spaces to enjoy alone or in community. This home is an ideal configuration for a group of friends, a multi-generational family holiday, or six couples just wanting to escape together for a while – there’s privacy for everyone. And there’s even a small office space to work, if you must, with wifi throughout. A backup power supply ensures you are always connected to the world. Actually, the upper rooftop level is the ultimate space to escape, exhale and literally be on top of the world. Imagine cooling off in the long lap pool in summer, looking out across trendy Sea Point all the way to the Atlantic Ocean beyond.
