The Lennon: Aparthotel Living in Cape Town’s Innercity

When you’re talking about Cape Town’s restaurant and café culture two street names keep coming up, Bree Street and Harrington Street. Positioned within easy walking distance of both, and creating a new community hub that bridges the gap, is The Lennon, a new development by Neighbourgood. Re-imagining a building from the 1960s, they are bringing new life to this corner of Corporation and Spin Streets, where a tree-shaded mini-piazza will hold a café-bakery, and a complex of 130 suites and apartments rises to a rooftop pool and bar.

City centre buzz

Every day has its own energy living this close to the heartbeat of Cape Town. Cultural events, music and theatre at the Homecoming Centre are just a step away, as is the variety of vibey dining options on Harrington Street. When green spaces call, The Company’s Gardens are just around the corner, and then a stroll to a favourite Bree Street café. A browse around an art gallery or designer boutique takes care of the rest of your morning. But you don’t even need to leave the building to connect to the buzz. The street-level café and restaurant takes you from morning coffee to sociable dinners, and the rooftop pool and bar offers Table Mountain views and airy poolside relaxation.

A city perch

The convenience of a compact suite for a stylish lock-up-and-go lifestyle, the liveability of a one-bedroom apartment, or the flexibility of a two-bedroom apartment… there is a layout and size to suit both first-time buyers and professionals looking for a main residence, as well as investors interested in short-term letting opportunities.

With thoughtful architecture by Silk Road and interior design by Terā, these are warm, practical and stylish spaces with a modern approach to city living. And if you want to be ready to move in (or let out) from day one, Terrā Design has curated a complete furniture and fit-out pack for an effortless upgrade.

Hotel-style urban living

Designed along the versatile aparthotel model, The Lennon combines the permanence and privacy of homeownership with the convenience of hotel living. Daily cleaning services, room-service food deliveries, a fully equipped gym, laundry, concierge and security are all part of the hospitality and management services provided by Neighbourgood.

And it’s an urban lifestyle that is all about connection, community and convenience. Residents have access to the extended community of Neighbourgood co-working, wellness and gym spaces across the city, as well as creative workshops, networking evenings, and even sunset hikes up Lion’s Head.
