Thanks to its beautiful beaches, great restaurants, friendly communities and wide choice of properties, Cape Town has just been voted one of the 10 best places in the world to live in a survey conducted by the UK Telegraph and Sotheby’s International Realty.

"They also listed the Cape’s amazing wine, mountains, fun-loving people and outdoorsy lifestyle among the many factors adding to the city’s appeal."
