Constantia is prestigious suburb in the northern region of Cape Town. The suburb is one of the oldest suburbs of Cape Town and has much of its prestige derived from the wine estates and the existing Constantia wine estate.
By many the suburb is considered the most prestigious and this is apparent by the property values in the suburb. The varied sizes of homes in the suburb do attract the upper end of the middle-income groups but still maintaining that status of prestige.
Constantia is a purely residential suburb and a tranquil serene lifestyle is evident from the tree lined streets with old well-established oak trees and stately gardens amidst estate like grounds.
The architecture in the suburb is somewhat historic and at the same time also modern contemporary. A vast selection of properties on the market currently is period architectural homes like Cape Dutch, classic Colonial, French Cottage, Baroque and many more to choose from.
The backdrop of the Constantiaberg Mountains adds to the nostalgia of the suburb as a wine producing “grand dame”.
The suburb is also in the advantageous position of a prime location for those who are not directly involved with the producing of wine.
Being in the southern suburbs means the suburb has easy access to all the major commercial and industrial hubs such as industrial hubs in Lansdowne, Ottery, Retreat and even Epping 1 & 2 and commercial hubs in Rondebosch, Claremont, Newlands and the Cape Town CBD.
The suburb is in a further beneficial position to have access to some elite schools such as Reddam House, Constantia Waldorf School, Herzlia House and Norman Henshilwood High School.
For tourists the suburb has an appeal of its own with the number of wine estates to visit which is also a good marketing tool for properties on sale in the market.
Constantia has access to all the southern suburb malls such as The Constantia Village, Blue Route Mall and malls in Claremont.
