R45 million dream home hits the market in Cape Town
R45 Million dream home hits the market in Cape Town, here's why everyone wants in.
The Mother City's luxury property boom shows no signs of slowing, with Camps Bay leading the charge.
Cape Town's Camps Bay continues to dominate headlines in South Africa's property market, and the latest listing proves why. A jaw-dropping family home, boasting architectural brilliance and uninterrupted ocean views, has just hit the market for just under R45 million.
According to Pam Golding Properties, the house spans three levels, features five en-suite bedrooms, and embraces seamless indoor-outdoor living, all wrapped in striking contemporary design.
Completed in 2022, the home offers a luxury lifestyle few can match. Soaring ceilings, vast open-plan lounges, and floor-to-ceiling glass sliders ensure that every corner makes the most of Camps Bay's iconic views—from the rugged peaks of the Twelve Apostles to the sparkling Atlantic coastline.
'This home is a masterpiece of design,' Pam Golding stated. 'Wall-to-wall glazing offers panoramic views, and every detail speaks to quality and luxury.'
With two swimming pools, a curated garden, and an astro turf lawn, the property was clearly built with entertainment in mind. High-end finishes include solar backup power, double glazing, electric blinds, and solid oak flooring. A garage that fits up to five vehicles—and additional covered parking—rounds off this luxury offering.
Camps Bay isn't just stunning—it's surging. Luxury property prices have jumped from R13.18 million to over R24.1 million since the start of the decade. Only Clifton and Bishopscourt rank higher in Cape Town's property hierarchy.
'Access to lifestyle amenities—including high-end restaurants, top-tier schools, and blue-flag beaches—drives property values upward,' said Claude McKirby, Co-Principal of Lew Geffen Sotheby's International Realty.
Cape Town's Atlantic Seaboard has become a magnet for both South African and international buyers. Seeff Atlantic Seaboard's Ross Levin reported a record-breaking Q1 2025, with over R1.6 billion in high-end sales.
R45 million Camps Bay home sold to a South African buyer
R21 million purchase by a German investor
R33.75 million shares sale to a British buyer
Levin explained, 'High-net-worth buyers see Cape Town as a safe and appreciating store of wealth.'
International demand continues to soar, especially from cash buyers in the UK and Germany, while a steady stream of semi-urban migrants from Gauteng and KZN are trading big-city chaos for coastal luxury. Why Camps Bay remains the crown jewel
Beyond the beaches and the views, Camps Bay offers unmatched lifestyle appeal—vibrant nightlife, luxury spas, fine dining, and proximity to Cape Town's CBD. Its combination of exclusivity and natural beauty keeps demand high and prices climbing.
Whether you're buying to live, invest, or simply soak in the sunset, Camps Bay real estate is proving to be one of South Africa's most valuable assets.

Trump dismisses Musk's call after public fallout, considers selling Tesla
US President Donald Trump and Elon Musk (R) speak in the Oval Office before departing the White House in Washington, DC, on the way to Trump's residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida US President Donald Trump has no plans to speak to billionaire Elon Musk and may even ditch his red Tesla car, the White House said Friday after a stunning public divorce fraught with risk for both men. Trump's camp insisted that he wanted to move on from the row with the South African-born Musk, with officials telling AFP that the tech tycoon had requested a call but that the president was not interested. The Republican instead intended to focus on getting the US Congress to pass his "big, beautiful" spending bill -- Musk's harsh criticisms of which had triggered the astonishing meltdown on Thursday. Fallout from the blow-up between the world's richest person and its most powerful could be significant, as Trump risks political damage and Musk faces the loss of huge US government contracts. Trump phoned reporters at several US broadcast networks to insist that he was looking past the row. He called Musk "the man who has lost his mind" in a call to ABC and told CBS he was "totally" focused on the presidency. The White House meanwhile, squashed earlier reports that they would talk. "The president does not intend to speak to Musk today," a senior White House official told AFP on condition of anonymity. A second official said it was "true" that Musk had requested a call.

TFG's robust earnings reflect strategic growth and online success
TFG's results for its 2025 financial year underscored a focus on market share growth, margin improvement and cost management, said its CEO, Anthony Thunström Image: Supplied JSE-listed international fashion, homeware and lifestyle retailer TFG's robust financial results for the year to end-March 2025 were fueled by a strong second half from TFG Africa, store expansion, and the acquisition of White Stuff in the UK. Headline earnings a share (HEPS) were up 4.6% to 1015.6 cents. The final dividend was raised by 15% to 230 cents a share. 'The result underscored a 'relentless' focus on market share growth, margin improvement, and cost management,' CEO Anthony Thunström said in a statement. The group has a portfolio of 39 leading retail brands, with over 4 900 outlets in 23 countries on five continents. 'We are targeting the opening of over 100 new stores in the coming year while optimising our existing footprint. With the Riverfields distribution centre now close to fully operational—alongside our other growth and efficiency strategies—we expect continued improvement in operating margins and capital returns in 2026 and beyond,' said Thunström. The Africa business led the charge in the past year with "exceptional" results in the second half. Online sales surged, driven by the success of the Bash platform, which had reached profitability two years ahead of schedule: 'a very likely unique achievement in the South African retail space,' said Thunström. Gross margins expanded by 150 basis points. These gains, along with disciplined cost management across divisions, translated into solid profit growth. Online sales maintained momentum and accounted for 12% of group sales, up from 9.9% the previous year. Video Player is loading.

All brands and categories showed improvement, generating full-year growth of 3.7%. Thunström said there was strong growth ahead of the market from womenswear, beauty, and jewellery, as well as recently acquired businesses, Jet and Tapestry, where the retail platform provided credit, online, and distribution capabilities. Online sales grew 43.5% and contributed 5.8% (2024: 4.2%) to total TFG Africa sales. TFG UK increased sales 16.4% in pounds following the acquisition of White Stuff from October 25, 2024. White Stuff saw 20.3% year-on-year growth for the five months post-acquisition. The addition of White Stuff to the portfolio saw store sales up 11.8% and online sales grow 22.5%. Online sales now contribute 44.8% (42.7%) of total TFG UK sales. TFG Australia faced difficult trading conditions, with sustained high inflation and interest rates impacting the consumer. Sales were 2.6% lower in Australian dollars, with a mixed performance throughout the second half in a 'highly promotional market,' Thunström said. Online sales grew by 7.3% and now contribute 8.1% (7.3%) to total TFG Australia sales.

Elon Musk's influence on Trump: A closer look at the Afrikaner genocide debate
US president Donald Trump shakes hands with billionaire businessman Elon Musk on May 30 before their public feud. Image: Allison Robbert / AFP The public fallout between US President Donald Trump and South African-born billionaire Elon Musk is not bothering one of the political parties in the Government of National Unity (GNU). Trump and Musk took to their social media platforms this week over differences in his administration's spending. Musk stated that Trump would not have won the 2024 presidential elections without his campaign spending hundreds of US dollars. Freedom Front Plus leader Dr Corné Mulder said he did not believe the approach by Trump or his administration would be changed due to the bitter feud and affect its response to allegations of 'genocide' against white Afrikaner farmers in South Africa.

Advertisement Next Stay Close ✕ Mulder was responding to questions about whether the fallout could see Trump dramatically changing his views on the white Afrikaner genocide in South Africa. Musk is widely regarded as a person who wielded immense influence on Trump. 'It is incorrect to assume that US foreign policy is based on the influence of specific individuals. Unhappiness with SA is not something new. Even during the (Joe) Biden administration, a bipartisan bill was introduced in the US Congress to relook the US-SA relationship,' he said. Political analyst Professor Dirk Kotzé said Musk has in the past been influential in these issues, but there are many other South Africans who are also influential and close to Trump. 'So it will not necessarily change this matter, I don't think Musk was the one who dealt with or promoted the issue of genocide necessarily, he was more there in terms of black economic empowerment and employment equity and those government policies that he criticised, so he will continue with that until there is an agreement about Starlink,' Kotzé explained. He added: 'When it comes to the Afrikaner issues and what is called genocide, I don't think he was ever a key person in that, I think that is more where the conservatives – AfriForum, Solidarity, (South African-born American conservative political commentator and radio host) Joe Pollak and others – came in to promote that idea.' Kotzé said his understanding is that there has been a smaller, second group that went to the US after the earlier AfriForum-Solidarity delegation, but without any public attention because it created much more disturbances within US politics in general. 'So I think it has become a controversial issue in the US, and Trump wants to avoid that. I can see that this is not going to be a public project in the future, it is not something they will announce in the media, welcome them, and have public events,' he predicted. Kotzé also anticipates that this initiative or project will, over time, actually slow down. 'I don't see it developing strong momentum that it will be something very prominent in the future. I think it is going to disappear over time,' he said.
