The Tygervalley Shopping Centre is one of the largest malls in South Africa and boasts ten cinemas, a wide selection of retail stores, banks and restaurants. The Northern Suburbs has of the best medical facilities in the Western Cape, with the Louis Leipold Medi Clinic and Durbanville Private Hospital being two of the most respected in the area. There is also plenty of opportunity for leisure activities, with a large number of dams in the surrounding area. It is not unusual to spot ducks, Egyptian geese and guinea fowls wandering around the open areas in the residential suburbs. The Tygerberg Nature Reserve is a great outing with a 7,5 kilometre hike that promises superb views over the entire peninsula.
Only 20 minutes away are the stunning beaches of Blaauwberg and Strand, Table Mountain and the V&A Waterfront. The historic rural towns of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek are a mere half an hour from here and there are a multitude of wine estates nearby. All this translates into an excellent investment opportunity, especially when you consider that properties in the Northern Suburbs are generally larger than those nearer the city and that Bellville and Durbanville certainly offer great value for money when it comes buying your dream home. |
