High ceilings? Check. Funky, modern interior design? Check. Breathtaking views of South Africa's most emblematic natural wonder? Double check. We're simply in love with this sun-soaked little beauty, particularly how it blurs the boundaries between inside and out thanks to those massive windows in the living area and glass doors giving direct access to the gorgeous wrap-around terrace. This home certainly has its own distinctive character, and it's one we think is truly special. With a simple yet striking decor, plenty of cosy nooks both inside and out where you can park yourself for an afternoon of reading (if you can take your eyes off that view), and a sought-after location in trendy Tamboerskloof – it's hard not to fall in love with this place. Having awoken in the bedroom with its own private balcony on the lower level, head up to the quirky kitchen on a quest for coffee. Then step out onto the balcony to be greeted by the warmth of the South African sunshine and find yourself spellbound by the vista once again. As for the rest of the day? Well, that's up to you. You're right on the slopes of Lions Head here, and in walking distance of popular Kloof Street where you'll find a lively cafe culture and a host of shops to peruse. Then of course there are the fabulous beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay as well as the popular Sea Point Promenade. Ah, decisions, decisions.
