4 Bedroom House for Sale in Rondebosch

23 Garton Road Rondebosch

Designed by acclaimed South African architect Lindsay Falck in 1968-69 and originally known as the Wixley House.

23 Garton Road is the one with the genuine Lindsay Falck pedigree.

It is specifically documented by the University of Pennsylvania’s Weitzman School of Design as the “Wixley House, 23 Garton Road, Rondebosch,” designed by Lindsay Falck in 1968–69.

That is significant because Falck was not simply a local residential architect. He was a UCT-trained architect, became a partner at Revel Fox & Partners, and four projects he worked on there received Cape Provincial Institute of Architects Bronze Medal Awards for Design Excellence. He left Revel Fox in 1968, became a full-time UCT academic, and simultaneously maintained his own architectural practice. The Wixley House therefore dates from the very beginning of his independent-practice period.

This distinctive home was well ahead of its time and still offers an exceptional sense of space, light and architectural character today.

Set on approximately 742m2 with around 335m2 under roof, the home is tucked away in a secure cul-de-sac in sought-after Rondebosch Golden Mile.

The accommodation is generously proportioned, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs, while the ground floor offers beautiful, spacious living area

s designed for easy family living and entertaining.

There is ample off-street parking for several cars, making the property particularly practical for a growing family.

This is a deceased estate and presents an exciting opportunity for a new owner to restore and enhance a very special home, while retaining the integrity of its original design.

Some maintenance is required, and a full report will be made available.

A rare opportunity to acquire an architecturally interesting home of substantial proportions in one of Rondebosch’s most established residential pockets, and to create a wonderful family home for the next generation.
