Fresnaye

Set directly on the slopes of Lion’s Head, the panoramic views from the heights of Fresnaye are magnificent, giving residents sweeping scenes of the Atlantic Ocean, Table Bay and Robben Island. It is an affluent suburb with some of the most luxurious and expensive properties available in the Cape Town area, popular with tourists and locals alike.

Fresnaye was originally an Estate of 200 acres, acquired in the early 1800s, and belonging to a French aristocrat from Bayeux in Normandy and descendant of the French Huguenots. Fresnaye was set in vineyards and orchards, and referred to as “A Garden of Eden” at the time. The French named streets reflect its heritage.

Living here gives one easy access to the various museums, galleries and alleyways of the city centre and is just minutes from the V&A Waterfront and the trendy Atlantic beaches of Camps Bay and Clifton are literally just up the road.
