Bantry Bay suburb
Bantry Bay is regarded as one of the most affluent suburbs in Cape Town. Until the end of World War I it was known as Botany Bay. This was due to a botanical garden developed on site. Herbs used for medicinal purposes were grown.
This part of the world was sought out by the famous evolutionist, Charles Darwin, who declared Lions Head ‘a unique geological feature’. The properties of present-day Bantry Bay are built on the slopes of Lions Head which is an ancient extinct volcano.
If you want to reside in an exclusive Cape Town suburb then Bantry Bay should top your list. The suburb is small and building is very limited. This adds to the exclusivity of and demand for a property.
Regardless of the compactness of Bantry Bay there are many other reasons why properties are always in demand. An important reason is that a property here remains a valuable asset. This is necessary to discerning buyers who want to own or rent in Bantry Bay.
The properties of Bantry Bay are situated between the seaboard suburbs of Sea Point (on the city side) and Clifton (on the Camps Bay side). Living along the Atlantic Seaboard and especially in a suburb like Bantry Bay is a privileged lifestyle. Every property is a testament to the good life.
A good lifestyle requires comfortable even luxurious properties as homes. There is no doubt a property in Bantry Bay delivers in every way.
There is a great choice of different properties. Some examples of property designs would be art deco apartment blocks, grand Georgian mansion, ultra-contemporary cubes, Mediterranean villas and many other unique and personalized styles.
Many properties were built a few generations ago and on a grand scale. An example is the impressive Ellerman Mansion, built by the famous architect, Sir Herbert Baker, in 1912, in Cape Edwardian style. This property was built for the British shipping magnate, Sir John Ellerman and his wife as their summer residence.
Properties lying in the Bantry Bay area are impressive because of their style. However, each property is made even more impressive and sought-after due to the location of Bantry Bay. This little suburb is called ‘a slice of heaven’ and for good reason.
The properties are situated in one of the most beautiful seascapes in the world. Bantry Bay runs down Lions Head Mountain and all the way to the endless blue of the Atlantic Ocean. Clustered homes follow the sloping mountain to the water and every property nearest the ocean firmly grasps the cliff top or massive granite boulders.
There really is no other way to describe this environment other than ‘breathtaking’. A property here couldn’t be any nearer to the natural elements. Properties in Bantry Bay are in close contact with the changing moods of the ocean. Your vista could be a serene and silvery moonlit ocean or majestic indigo waves crashing onto black granite or a tangerine sunset over sparkling turquoise water.
Bantry Bay and its variety of properties is minutes away from the Camps Bay strip filled with trendy (in a sophisticated way) coffee shops, bars, eateries and long white beach and palms. In the opposite direction are equally trendy Sea Point then Green Point and finally the city centre.
Also a few minutes from a property in Bantry Bay is Mouille Point and its quiet strip of a few coffee shops, deli and restaurant. The strip continues all the way to the nearby V&A Waterfront. It’s a glamorous shopping and leisure destination within a working harbour.
Bantry Bay is popular as a residential and vacation location. Many a property here has been turned into a boutique hotel or guesthouse to rival the very best in the world.
It has long been the first choice of location by the rich and the famous. Its latest devotees are international modern-day celebrities. They have discovered it’s easy to hideaway from the world in a luxurious and uber-discreet Bantry Bay property.
Many other tourists from around the world spend vacation time in private Bantry Bay properties. However, it is very easy for them to mingle with the locals. There is a special V&A Waterfront shuttle that transports passengers along Victoria and Beach Roads through Mouille Point and straight into the upmarket Waterfront.
Due to the sophistication of residents and visitors to Bantry Bay there are thriving spas in keeping with the close-to-nature lifestyle. A number of discreet spas are housed in luxury properties. Many of them have magnificent sea or mountain views while pampering their guests with exotic and local ingredients.
A property in Bantry Bay is not far from a beach. The nearest beaches are within walking distance. They are Saunders Rock, Clifton and Camps Bay. Many visitors and locals enjoy a brisk walk along the picturesque seafront all the way to Camps Bay.
Another reason why Bantry Bay is regarded as a perfect location for properties is the weather. While the rest of the Cape puts up with bouts of a blustery South Easter wind, a property here is within a sheltered haven. This sheltering extends from the nearby properties of Fresnaye to Bantry Bay to Clifton - but no further. Every exclusive property in Bantry Bay enjoys approximately two hundred and ninety wind free days every year.
Even though Bantry Bay is known as a glamorous spot in Cape Town, it is also suitable for growing families. There are properties to fit the size and requirements of any family. One property may have a huge swimming pool, another may have a splash pool and another may have a lovely garden or spacious balcony or private patio.
This suburb is ideal for parents because properties are close to every possible convenience like complexes, cinemas, hardware shops, hair salons, beauty salons, medical and dental practices, medi-centers, places of worship, pre-schools, primary schools, colleges, University of Cape Town and places of leisure and socializing.
It is highly likely a property in Bantry Bay will have suitable domestic staff quarters. If not, it is easy for staff to get from the city centre to this suburb.
Bantry Bay and its properties really are geared for the all-inclusive lifestyle. You don’t have to give up natural beauty, the ocean and beaches for close-proximity to urban conveniences. A property here allows you to have the life you want.
