Sea Point’s Regent Road is no stranger to change, but the latest development set to rise there is turning heads. Meet Dear Jean, a brand-new residential block bringing 127 apartments, ground-floor restaurants and retail, and a shiny R44 million penthouse to Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard.
The development will sit at 33 Regent Road, Sea Point in Cape Town on the site of the old Regent building that was sold last month for R150 million by Kantey Commercial.
Completion of the development is pencilled in for the end of 2027, and if the plans are anything to go by, Sea Point is about to get another glitzy addition to its skyline.
What’s on offer
- Studios: from R2.55 million (23m² – 32m²)
- Deluxe Studios: from R3 million (31m² – 41m²)
- One-bedrooms: from R3.75 million (37m² – 90m²)
- Two-bedrooms: from R6.55 million (64m² – 94m²)
- Penthouses: from R14.1 million, topping out at R44 million for 499m² of Sea Point luxury
The developer plans to release 82 apartments to the market for sale, and the rest the developer will retain.
Property sales data shows that the average price for a residential sale in the Atlantic Seaboard suburb of Sea Point is R3.4million, with about 901 properties sold in the area this year. While the asking price for the studio is on par with the average asking price for the suburb, the one-bedroom is slightly above the average R3.3 million average in 2025.
Every apartment in this development will have their own balcony (a big win), and some of the bigger units will come with private pools or jacuzzis (some penthouses will a pool and a jacuzzi). Basement parking is available – there are 44 basement bays allocated to the apartments; however, residents can buy additional bays for R375,000 (including VAT).
Nice-to-haves (that should really be standard)
Every apartment will come with air conditioning and double glazing. This is a really busy section of Sea Point, so I feel like these finishes are essential. Often developers consider these “optional extras” so it’s great to see them included from the start.
The building will also be pet-friendly and have its own laundry room for residents to make use of. Residents can also look forward to loads of retail (think restaurants and boutiques) on the ground and first floor. That’s on top of the fact that you are across the road from the buzzing Mojo Market.
Launch date
Sales officially launch on Wednesday, 8 October 2025 at 13:00.
So, what do you think? Another shiny building box, or a thoughtful addition to Sea Point’s evolving strip?
