Written by Nox | 19/12/25 08:35

If you have been keeping half an eye on Camps Bay from overseas, or you are advising someone who is, this update will help put the past year into perspective. Camps Bay continues to hold its own as one of Cape Town’s most desirable suburbs, with strong sales activity, a busy short-term rental market, and steady interest across all property types. Below is a clear snapshot of what has been happening and what is currently on offer as we head into the height of summer.

In this blog we cover…

Sales Snapshot: The Past 12 Months

  • Average sale price: R23,262,813
  • Highest sale price: R92,500,000
  • Lowest sale price: R7,500,000
  • Average time on the market: 77 days

Freestanding homes in Camps Bay remain highly sought after, particularly those offering privacy, views, and outdoor living. These figures suggest a market that is both active and relatively efficient, with well-priced homes continuing to move at a healthy pace.

Sectional Title Properties

  • Total sales: 64

  • Highest sale price: R35,075,000

Apartments and sectional title homes tell a slightly different story, with a broader price range and longer selling periods.  The longer time on market reflects greater price sensitivity and choice for buyers, particularly in the apartment segment.
