The property is five minutes from a large municipal swimming pool and also a trendy road full of coffee shops, restaurants, secondhand bookshop, laundry and other shops. It is a 15 minute minibus ride to Adderley Street, the main road in Cape Town and 30 minutes ride to blue flag beaches, Table Mountain cableway, Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and the V&A Waterfront.

As a busy hiker, kayaker, swimmer, runner and cyclist I can advice on unusual tourist attractions and local theatre shows, book launches, art gallery openings and other events happening in this busy city.

Friendly neighbours watch out for each other. Great views from the deck of the harbour, city centre and mountains.
