18 Napier Street · De Waterkant · Cape Town

A small home, made properly.

Fifteen studios and two lofts above a café on Napier Street. Light pours in through tall glass, joinery rises to the ceiling and the bathroom is one you'll want to linger in. It feels like a boutique hotel, except the key is yours.

01 · The address

Step outside, and the whole quarter is yours.

De Waterkant is the small, bright quarter between Signal Hill and the harbour, where the city meets Green Point: cobbled lanes, painted cottages, galleries and the Cape Quarter across the road. The V&A Waterfront is an easy stroll, the city centre is close by, and there's a café downstairs for the mornings you'd rather not go far.

02 · The studios

Thirty-four square metres that feel like more. Joinery rises to the ceiling, light comes in tall, and everything has its place.

03 · The lofts

Two homes at the very top, with the harbour in view.

Downstairs, a double-height living room fills with light from the skylight and the balcony glass, with a kitchen island to gather round and a snug dining nook tucked beneath the stair.

Upstairs, a main bedroom with room for a queen or even a king, a second bedroom that doubles as a study, and a bathroom with both a bath and a shower. Step out onto the terracotta-and-white balcony, and the city is right there.

Move in, or let it earn from day one.

Every studio comes with its kitchen, bathroom and full-height joinery already in. Add the furnished package and the rest arrives with it: a modular lounge, the bed, a dining table, lighting and SMEG appliances. Bring a suitcase, or hand the keys to your first guest.

04 · The neighbourhood

Everything you love, inside a ten-minute walk.

Napier Heart sits on the lower stretch of Napier Street, between Prestwich Street and Somerset Road. Cape Quarter is across the road, the cafés and cottages of De Waterkant begin a block up, and the Silo District at the V&A is twelve minutes on foot, close enough for a sunset drink on a whim. Green Point’s cafés and park are a stroll further along Somerset Road, and from the upper floors the harbour fills the view.
