Commanding spectacular, uninterrupted views across False Bay and its encircling mountain ranges, this substantial five-bedroom, two-bathroom home in the sought-after coastal suburb of St James is a rare find on Cape Town's South Peninsula. Spanning approximately 608 m² of living space across two levels — each with its own separate entrance — the layout lends itself beautifully to dual living or accommodates a large family with ease.

The upper level is anchored by a light-filled lounge with timber floors, a fireplace, and full-width glazed folding doors that open directly onto a spacious deck with sweeping False Bay views — the ocean panorama visible from every angle. A second, more generous lounge on the same level features warm wooden floors, a yellow accent wall, a second fireplace, a grandfather clock, a vintage timber chest, and a full bookshelf — a characterful retreat for relaxed family living. The well-appointed kitchen is fitted with white shaker-style cabinetry, dark granite-effect countertops, a gas hob with under-counter oven, a stainless-steel double sink, and a cheerful red mosaic-tile splashback, all framed by a casement window with a leafy garden outlook. The main bedroom enjoys direct False Bay sea views through large sliding windows, wooden floors, and a brass chandelier — a truly serene seaside sanctuary.

The lower level has its own garden entrance leading to a secluded, established garden — ideal for children, guests, or use as a private annexe. Outdoors, a stone-paved terrace runs alongside the home beneath a timber pergola, framing those iconic False Bay and mountain views.

Jacobs Ladder park is approximately 114 m away, and St James Station — just 281 m from the door — puts the City Bowl within easy reach by rail. Folk Café and Pizza Shed are within 320 m, the celebrated Chardonnay Deli is around 454 m away, and the vibrant harbour village of Kalk Bay — with its top restaurants, coffee shops, antique stores, and art galleries — is under 1 km away. The famous St James tidal pools and beach are on your doorstep, while Boyes Drive hiking trails and Star of the Sea Convent Primary School (177 m away) round out an exceptional beachside lifestyle.
