The town of “Die Strand” is only 10 km away from Somerset West and an easy hour drive from Cape Town. Strand is a very popular destination for retirees from Johannesburg who decide to live in one of the many high rise apartment blocks along the beautiful white sandy beaches that are one of the main landmarks of Strand. Initially a settlement for Malay slaves that escaped from nearby Cape Town, it grew from a small fishing village to a popular resort town, offering modern living by the sea. Locals escape their weekly drudgery from work by relaxing on one of the stunning beaches, soaking up the sunshine and the “savoir vivre” that is often associated with living by the sea.
Besides apartments in high rises, Strand has more to offer to savvy property investors. An ideal base to travel to and from it can also be utilized by business professionals who work in Cape Town. There is certainly no shortage on beautiful and stylish properties for the right price. With the stunning backdrop of the famous Helderberg mountains is is truly a paradise that offers plenty of lifestyle choices.
