Tree-lined residential streets climb the lower slopes of Signal Hill above Green Point’s Main Road, with the green expanse of the Urban Park beckoning for picnics, play and dog walks, and the Sea Point Promenade and the V&A Waterfront also practically on your doorstep. Cool neighbourhood cafés, delis and bakeries line Main Road and you can stroll to the stadium for concerts and sporting events. Blok’s newest development THIRTEENONUP puts Green Point’s increasingly family-friendly appeal at the heart of its layered approach to apartment living.

Green by nature

Thirteenonup Exterior

A walkable, connected neighbourhood is one of the first things Blok looks for in a new location, and this prime Green Point spot combines residential tranquillity with proximity to schools, grocery stores (Giovanni’s is a five-minute walk away), open green public spaces, park runs, Padel courts, sports facilities and everyday convenience.

Thirteenonup Garden

THIRTEENONUP garden apartments offer a peaceful retreat and versatile space that are both family- and pet-friendly. A tall atrium and vertical garden with sculpted stairs and suspended walkways welcome you in, there’s a rooftop pool deck and children’s play area, and several apartments have their own private gardens.

Open to ocean breezes

Thirteenonup View

Contemporary architecture features five storeys of visually appealing curves, creating flow and privacy for the floor-to-ceiling windows catching ocean breezes on the wraparound balconies, where you look out over views to the stadium and ocean at the front and to Signal Hill at the back. The collection of 52 apartments includes 11 studios, 23 one-bedroom apartments, 12 two-bedroom apartments, 4 three-bedroom apartments and two Penthouses with roof terraces. These Penthouses and the spacious garden villas are designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, and the whole collection has plenty of potential for permanent homes, as well as investment properties.

A fully-furnished option

Thirteenonup Two Bedroom

A thoughtful collaboration with Weylandts (a leading South African furniture and interiors brand), makes life even easier for those who want to move straight into their two-bedroom apartments from day one.
