St Ives occupies a coveted coastal address

This new development offers a private mountain-seascape where elevation and ultra-modernist design converge in three secure residences. Sculpted for those with a taste for turnkey living, it delivers an uncompromising location, considered architecture, and unforgettable views.

Designed for Presence
Designed by boutique firm Hours Clear Architects, St Ives comprises three striking contemporary homes inspired by a refined Brutalist aesthetic. The architecture features bold horizontal lines, deep overhangs, and expansive terraces that maximise Cape Town’s spectacular views.

Interiors offer full-height glazing, polished concrete floors, smoked-oak joinery, and travertine finishes, creating a sophisticated and light-filled living environment. Optional turnkey furniture packages are available to complete the design vision.

Positioned on one of the most sought-after slopes of the Atlantic Seaboard, St Ives offers rare long-term value. Upper Sea Point continues to outperform average Cape Town growth curves, driven by limited supply, walkability, proximity to the beaches, and uninterrupted views – attributes that consistently attract both local and international buyers. Each residence stands within a market segment known for robust capital appreciation and high rental demand, particularly for furnished, view-oriented homes.

As a primary residence, a lock-up-and-leave base, or a premium short-stay investment, St Ives merges desirability and robust return potential in one of Cape Town’s most resilient property micro-markets.

Three Ways of Living
Across all three units, the common thread is intentionality – every design choice was made with a distinct way of living in mind. Accessed from the shared parking level, each residence has its own unique persona:

• Residence III:
Nature-focused, this vertically stacked townhouse features its own private garden. Configured over three levels, it presents three en-suite bedrooms on the first floor, flanked by a band of greenery – the main and third suites open out to secluded terraces, while the home’s garden has direct access from Suites One and Two. One floor up, the living level pulls together landing, lounge, kitchen, and dining area with its own balcony. An internal staircase leads to the rooftop terrace with copper-clad pool room and private swimming pool, completing the multilevel indoor–outdoor sequence from garden to sky.

“Within its walls, St Ives offers a design-conscious lifestyle: secure, low-maintenance seaside living for those who value quality, clarity, and enduring design. Home is conceived as a tactile, grounded environment defined by calm and quiet permanence.”
Werner Lotz, Co-Lead Architect

Held by Nature
Set on the sheltered curve of Ilkley Crescent in Upper Sea Point, this unique enclave enjoys sweeping Atlantic views and a quiet, established neighbourhood atmosphere. Residents share access to a beautiful communal rose garden planted over 50 years ago, creating a rare sense of charm and community. Nestled below Signal Hill, the location offers breathtaking ocean, mountain, and city views while enjoying a milder Atlantic Seaboard climate.

The Atlantic Seaboard, Fully in View
From this promontory suspended above Sea Point with no roads above it, greater Cape Town unfolds invitingly. Within minutes lie the Atlantic’s most iconic beaches – Clifton, Camps Bay, Saunders, Llandudno, and Hout Bay – while the promenade offers daily running, cycling, and ocean-front living beneath Lion’s Head. To the east, the V&A Waterfront, Silo District, and CBD place markets, dining, design, theatre, and business at your fingertips. To the south, Constantia’s wine estates and Newlands Forest offer weekend bliss; to the west, Chapman’s Peak and world-class hiking trails whisper adventure.
With elite gyms, coffee bars, bistros, galleries, and aesthetic clinics woven through the neighbourhood, and Cape Town International Airport just 30 minutes away, Sea Point is a singular urban vantage point: a gateway to every facet of the Cape lifestyle – from wild coastline to premier schools, to cosmopolitan culture, all in one radius.

“Sea Point has become the heartbeat of the Atlantic Seaboard. Recently, much of the growth has been concentrated along the main roads below, where density, energy and convenience define daily life. From the beginning, St Ives in its Upper Sea Point locale was imagined as a place that remains closely connected to that life, offering a distinctly different pace. The vision was never separation, but balance – access when needed, and calm when not.”
Justin Joffe, Developer

St Ives is a composed piece of architecture, designed to belong here.
This is less a development and more a continuation of a story – one held by the land, the community, and the thoughtful design that now gives that story a new beginning.
