With a rich sense of heritage, plenty of cultural attractions and a thriving social scene, Durbanville is one of the most covetable areas in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town.

It’s a trendy neighbourhood that has a lot to offer the young, modern family. It’s safe, community focussed and home to some of the best junior and high schools in the province.

Durbanville offers an interesting mix of old and new properties, with the older sites tending to be larger with plenty of potential – and space – for renovations and generous reimaginings! The newer places in Durbanville are premium properties that offer the ultimate lockup-and-go lifestyle, with plenty more new developments planned for the town in the next couple of years.

The contemporary lifestyle that Durbanville offers its residents is a key attraction – think boutique shops, upmarket retailers, galleries, a museum, superb restaurants, and some of the country’s finest wine estates on its doorstep.

What makes it more interesting is that the town continues to maintain strong connections to the farming community that inches along its borders. This relationships adds a sense of authenticity to the town that makes it very attractive for those seeking a balance between an edgy, semi-urban lifestyle, coupled with the nostalgia of country living.
