What if your next home could put the best of Green Point on your doorstep – while giving you the space, design and lifestyle to make the city feel like home?
That is the idea behind THIRTEENONUP, Blok’s latest Cape Town development at 13 Upper Portswood Road in Green Point.
The developer’s 22nd development is designed around what Blok describes as ‘layered living’ – bringing together the energy of the city with moments of calm, thoughtful architecture and the convenience of having some of Cape Town’s most popular destinations close by.
And now, a new collaboration with South African furniture and interiors brand Weylandts is adding another reason to take a closer look at the development.
A new chapter for Green Point living
THIRTEENONUP occupies a sought-after position between the Atlantic Ocean and Table Mountain National Park, placing residents within easy reach of Green Point’s parks, restaurants, cafés and recreational spaces.
The location offers the best of both worlds: the buzz of urban Cape Town, without losing the sense of space and connection that makes Green Point such a desirable place to live.
Green Point Park, the promenade, V&A Waterfront, DHL Stadium and Metropolitan Golf Club are all nearby, while the surrounding streets are filled with cafés, restaurants and everyday conveniences.
For residents, this means a lifestyle where a morning coffee, a walk along the promenade, an afternoon at the Waterfront or evening out can all form part of the same neighbourhood.
Designed with a sense of place
THIRTEENONUP has been conceived as more than a collection of apartments. Its design aims to create a distinctive residential environment, using a palette of warm wood, stone, textured walls, black metal and terracotta details.
Integrated lighting and functional joinery add to the contemporary aesthetic, while architectural features including an atrium, vertical garden, suspended walkways, sculpted stairs and curved elements give the building a sense of movement and character.
The development also brings a range of shared spaces into the mix.
Residents will have access to green spaces, a children’s play area and an elevated lifestyle pool deck, creating opportunities to relax and spend time outside the individual apartments.
Practical touches include air-conditioning in all apartments, concierge services, a building manager and 24-hour on-site security. THIRTEENONUP is also pet-friendly, adding to its appeal for modern households.
A home that can be furnished your way
One of the latest additions to the THIRTEENONUP offering is a partnership between Blok and Weylandts.
For a limited time, buyers of selected Two-bedroom apartments will have the opportunity to receive a fully furnished home from day one.
It is a partnership that makes sense from a design perspective. Weylandts, founded in 1964, has built its reputation around materials including timber and leather, as well as tactile, enduring design.
For THIRTEENONUP, the collaboration reinforces the development’s focus on considered living, allowing selected buyers to move into a home that feels finished and personal from the outset.
A choice of spaces
THIRTEENONUP offers a selection of residential options designed to accommodate different lifestyles and needs, with One, Two and Three-bedroom apartments forming part of the development.
Current pricing starts from R6 595 000 for available One-bedroom apartments, R9 595 000 for available Two-bedroom apartments and R18 195 000 for available Three-bedroom apartments. Selected Two and Three-bedroom apartments also include garden options, offering additional outdoor space.
With a range of layouts and price points, THIRTEENONUP offers prospective buyers the opportunity to find a home that suits their lifestyle in the heart of Green Point.
Green Point at your doorstep
Residents can enjoy the convenience of being close to some of the city’s favourite spots, including Jason’s Bakery, Mano’s, Hudsons, Giovanni’s and Moro Gelato, while Green Point Park and the Atlantic Seaboard provide plenty of opportunities to escape the city without actually leaving it.
It is this balance between convenience, connectivity and a more relaxed pace that sits at the heart of the THIRTEENONUP concept.
Secure your place at THIRTEENONUP
With completion projected for April 2029, THIRTEENONUP is an off-plan Cape Town property development, giving prospective buyers the opportunity to secure their home ahead of completion.
The combination of a prime Green Point location, considered architecture, lifestyle amenities and the limited-time Weylandts furnishing opportunity makes THIRTEENONUP a development worth watching for anyone considering Cape Town property – View available apartments
