Welcome to our eclectic 2 bedroom apartment, a space as fabulous as the
area that surrounds it! Set under the mountain and in the heart of the
Mother city, 1410 is at the juncture of the quaint De Waterkant Village
and the vibrant Bo-Kaap. You’ll be surrounded by our famous cuisine,
local markets, vibey nightlife and museums. Minutes from the bustling
Waterfront and blue flag beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay, you’ll reach
the wine regions of Stellenbosch and Constantia within an hour.
The space
A light and bright block that is meticulously maintained and offers
24/7 front desk security and controlled access to all floors. The
apartment is located on the 14th floor, with large windows overlooking
both city and sea. Featuring an open plan living cum dining area
leading into a fully equipped kitchen (including washing machine and
dishwasher), the apartment boasts ease of living with its modern
finishes and playful design choices. There are two fabulous bedrooms,
two bathrooms (one en-suite), a smart TV, fast WiFi as well as
air-conditioning in the lounge. It’s a 5 minute stroll to the Cape
Quarter shopping hub. Open 7 days a week, it has excellent boutiques
shops and restaurants as well as pharmacies, doctors’ rooms and
convenience stores that operate from 8am to 7:30pm daily.
117 on Strand borders one of Cape Town’s most famous sites, the Bo-Kaap
(meaning “Above the Cape” in Afrikaans). With its vibrant coloured
houses and cobblestone streets, this National Heritage Site is a local
treasure. Established in 1760, it is the oldest surviving residential
neighbourhood in Cape Town and forms the historical centre of the Cape
Malay culture. There are so many things to explore and experience in
the Bo-Kaap and we highly recommend you take the time to do so.
Look a bit further up and you will find one of the planet’s most iconic
sights. Created 600 million years ago, so just a tad older than the
city, Table Mountain is home to the widest variety of flowers and other
plant life in the world. Deserving of its status as one of the New 7
Wonders of Nature, you can swop the city for sheer serenity and be on
one of its many mountain trails within minutes.
