St James Private Coastal Retreat is a newly renovated four-bedroom home positioned above the seaside villages of St James and Kalk Bay, offering sweeping False Bay views, dramatic mountain scenery and beautifully designed outdoor living.

The home combines a peaceful elevated setting with the convenience of being within walking distance of beaches, tidal pools, restaurants, galleries and boutique shops. Mountain trails can be accessed directly from the area, making this an excellent base for guests who want to experience both the coastline and surrounding mountains.

Inside, the spacious open-plan living and dining area provides a comfortable gathering place with an oversized sofa, television and fireplace. The fully equipped kitchen is designed for easy family meals and entertaining.

Accommodation includes a king-size master bedroom with generous storage and a dedicated workspace or dressing area, a queen bedroom with mountain and sea views, and a twin bedroom. A fourth room functions as a study or additional sleeping space for one adult or two children.

Outside, multiple terraces provide generous dining and lounge areas, a built-in braai and outdoor shower. During whale season, Southern Right Whales can often be spotted in False Bay, making the sea-facing patios an especially memorable place to relax.

Description

Set between mountain and sea, St James Private Coastal Retreat offers a wonderful combination of privacy, contemporary comfort and easy access to the character-filled villages of St James and Kalk Bay.

Outdoor living is a major feature of the home. Multiple terraces provide different spaces for relaxing and entertaining, including a spacious built-in braai area, built-in seating, generous outdoor dining and a comfortable lounge area. An outdoor shower is ideal after a morning swim at one of the nearby beaches or tidal pools.

Inside, the newly renovated interiors are fresh and contemporary. The open-plan lounge and dining area creates a sociable central space, with a fireplace and oversized sofa providing a comfortable setting for relaxed evenings. The fully equipped kitchen caters equally well to simple breakfasts or dinners with family and friends.

The home accommodates a maximum of seven adults across four rooms, with an additional pull-out mattress suitable for a child only.

One of the property’s greatest advantages is its location. Danger Beach, Dalebrook Tidal Pool and Kalk Bay are all within walking distance, while mountain trails are accessible nearby. Cape Point, Boulders Beach, Simon’s Town, Muizenberg and the Constantia Winelands are also within easy reach.
