NEW LANDMARK BUILDING FOR MOUILLE POINT SKYLINE

One of the most exclusive sites on ’s Mouille Point beachfront is to undergo a major facelift - ultimately emerging as the tallest building on the promenade. The old Amalfi Holiday Suites opposite the Mouille Point lighthouse have been demolished to make way for a new deluxe apartment building, which will offer 24 units with top quality finishes and spectacular sea and mountain views. Pam Golding Properties has the exclusive mandate to market the apartments, which are priced from R4.45 million.

PGP’s development manager Bev Bloch says the location of the new Amalfi building is one of the most exclusive seafront properties in all of Cape Town. “The front row position offers magnificent views over ,” she says, “while the back of the building will overlook the , , the Metropolitan Golf Course and the Green Point urban park, which is fast emerging as a beautiful green lung for the central city area. The design of the new building is a sophisticated combination of metal and glass, with double- volume spaces and a modern aesthetic which will rise gracefully over the Promenade. The development will offer an exclusive, secure and luxurious lifestyle, in a convenient location close to the V&A Waterfront, the Central City, Cape Town International Convention Centre, the beaches of the Atlantic Seaboard, and any number of leading restaurants, coffee shops and sports facilities.”

The 24 apartments will include a mix of two- and three-bedroomed en suite units, with spacious entertainment areas and luxurious finishes. Most will have their own balconies, while all units will come with either one or two parking bays. The apartments will feature double-volume windows and a ceiling height of up to 5m, creating a sense of light and space, as well as maximising enjoyment of the panoramic views. The building will have a few select retail outlets on the ground and first floors, offering deluxe convenience shopping for residents. The apartments themselves will be spread over a further six floors, with an additional penthouse level offering a single spectacular apartment which will occupy the entire floor.

PGP’s MD for the metro region, Laurie Wener, adds that the building will feature the latest modern technology to ensure residents’ security and peace of mind. “The building will enjoy 24 hour security,” she says, “with a CCTV system manned round the clock by a concierge. All units will have a technologically-advanced screen communications system which will keep them in contact with the front desk and allow strict monitoring of visitors. This high level of security, the prime location of the building and the luxury specification of the finishes, will make this an ideal purchase both for holiday users and permanent residents, be they empty-nesters looking to scale down, business commuters wanting a secure lock-up-and-go home in the Cape, ‘swallows’ who spend their summers in , or even retirees wanting to enjoy the seafront lifestyle, the sunsets and long strolls along the Promenade.”

Construction is set to being in 2011, with occupation anticipated some 18 months later.
