Charming Clifton Apartment - Number 4701

As you approach through the pretty wrought iron security gates, there is an instant air of anticipation. A knowing that something extra special awaits. With subtle Art Deco influences, this is as chic as a beachfront apartment gets.

Super stylish and sophisticated, the generous proportions and double volumes make it unique in every way.

The unrepentant colour palette draws direct reference from the sand and surf beyond. Bleached bone, eau de nil and the fudgy tones of beach sand. As you open the frosted glass front door, you enter a dreamy world that’s softly muted, filtered, hazy and slow.

Tranquillity abounds in this luxurious and lofty space. Slide back the full-length glass panels and let the soft ocean breeze fill your senses.

The apartment is perfectly positioned to take in the sweeping sea view across the world-renowned Clifton bay. Watch the bathers taking their daily dip or diving off the hot salty granite boulders. Join them if you dare to brave the crisp Atlantic Ocean. As the sun begins to set, sip an icy cocktail and watch the bronzed party set’s joyful celebrations on the boats in the bay.

This apartment comes with a warning – you’ll never want to leave…

Safely nestled into the foothill of Cape Town’s spectacular Lions Head, a mere meander from Clifton’s five world-famous Blue Flag beaches, Number 4701 is what dreamy beach holiday memories are made.
Clifton is famously the most sought-after real estate in Africa. Tucked between Bantry Bay and Camps Bay, the area is relatively wind-free.

Five pristine pearly white beaches on your doorstep and a stone’s throw away from all that Cape Town has to offer. Glittering nightlife, world-class restaurants, breathtaking nature and maximum adventure for the thrill seeker.

This truly is a paradise playground for the most demanding global traveller.

Cape Town’s sunset strip – kick back, relax and watch the barefoot, bikini-bronzed world go by.

Together with its immaculate white sands and glistening water, their bronzing bodies and designer sunglasses grace Clifton’s 4th beach with sufficient glamour and eco-savvy to deserve not only the ‘see and be seen’ status it has acquired but its blue flag status as well. The beaches at Clifton are divided into four distinct coves by stretches of granite boulders and, whilst they may not be very imaginatively named, 1st, 2nd 3rd and 4th, their beauty makes names rather superfluous. Each of the beaches is reached by a flight of stairs down from the road on which parking can sometimes be extremely difficult. This doesn’t hinder the crowds during peak season or in the evening when throngs of people head down to Clifton to partake in traditional sundowners in the presence of one of Cape Town’s legendary sunsets.

The four beaches of Clifton are well protected from the notorious south-easterly and, whilst there is the occasional wave, most simply lap at the shoreline. Staying here often has the added bonus of quiet evenings as the throngs tend to head off just up the road to Camps Bay’s many restaurants, clubs and bars as Clifton offers little in the way of restaurants and has no shops to speak of.

Uber is readily available and the My Citi bus stop is about 100 meters from the apartment.

All over Cape Town, you’ll find paid parking structures, free street parking, and in the City Bowl and a few other areas, such as Sea Point, paid street parking. There are no parking meters, so when you see the “pay and display” parking sign, look for the parking attendant – or most likely they’ll find you. Parking is currently under R5 per 15 minutes. In areas where street parking is free, expect to be approached by “car guards,” who ask for a tip in exchange for watching over your car.

Housekeeping can be arranged at an additional cost.
