The Odyssey – a recently completed penthouse – nestles between the bustling mini-metropolis of Green Point and Signal Hill on the Atlantic seaboard. It reflects a perfect balance insofar as the natural beauty of this location and all of that which Cape Town has to offer. Plus the accessible urban living environment that Green Point promises.
Green Point Urban Park is regarded as the Central Park of Cape Town and is a tranquil corner of greenery that is literally across the road; with the beach merely a brisk walk away. This penthouse offers stunning vistas from a very comfortable and personal location of total privacy and overt luxury. They are consummate assets that make this a unique location.

There are generous measures of splendour in this setting.
