There are a handful of areas in Cape Town that, despite the property crisis the world over, continue to attract record prices and Camps Bay property on the sought-after Atlantic Seaboard is the pick of the bunch.
Situated only 10 minutes from the hustle and bustle of the city centre, Camps Bay is a trendy and ‘youthful’ suburb that has a backdrop of the magnificent Twelve Apostles mountain range and boasts some of the most stunning sea views.
South Africa’s own French Riviera
Often likened to the French Riviera, Camps Bay has both the cosmopolitan appeal and the climate to match the hotspots of Cannes, Nice and even St. Tropez, and with more and more sidewalk cafés and top flight restaurants opening along the palm-lined promenade, there is little wonder that both locals and international visitors alike clamour for real estate in the area.
The magic of Camps Bay is its incomparable location – if simple beach living is what you’re after, there is plenty of prime property within walking distance of the popular family beach. In the height of summer the beach is literally packed with foreigners seeking the sun, as well as hosting beach volleyball tournaments, lifesaving competitions and all sorts of free live entertainment that takes place for the enjoyment of anyone.
Hotels, restaurants and clubs abound
The main road is a lively strip 24/7 and has a number of internationally acclaimed restaurants and a renowned hotel. The Theatre on the Bay is another major attraction, with home-grown plays, comedy shows and other nightly offerings for theatre buffs to enjoy.
Some of the most opulent family homes, bed and breakfasts and guest houses in South Africa are located a little further away from the sea, however. Constructed on the slopes of the Twelve Apostles, these premier properties have arguably the best views in the Cape and have access to the majesty of the Table Mountain National Park - clearly the best of both worlds.
Estate agents continue to realise excellent prices in Camps Bay, and for good reasons:
- It is located on the popular Atlantic Seaboard, a destination that continues to fetch impressive returns.
- It is a complete city suburb, resplendent with internationally acclaimed restaurants, sidewalk cafés and nightclubs, as well as a reputable primary and secondary school.
- There is a dedicated police station in situ, diminishing the risk of criminal activity.
- The commercial centre of the city and the evergreen V&A Waterfront is close by.
- It boasts one of the few Blue Flag beaches in the country.
- It is within walking distance of the four Clifton beaches, tipped as some of the best in the world
There is no doubt that Camps Bay will remain one of the flagship suburbs of Cape Town and that Camps Bay property will continue to increase in value, regardless of the difficulties of the global economic meltdown.
