House on the hill
posted by Kerry-Anne
This unusual view of Table Mountain (enlarge the picture and you'll be able to see the cable-car station at the top) was taken from one of the highest roads in Camps Bay.I'm sure we've mentioned before that the beachfront area in Camps Bay is one of our favourite parts of Cape Town - particularly in December, when the streets are jammed, the beaches are full of holidaymakers, and the restaurants are packed with beautiful people.
The houses aren't too shabby either, as you might be able to see from this shot. Camps Bay is an affluent neighbourhood, and a high proportion of the properties here are owned by foreigners.
In fact, a UK woman has apparently just paid R44 million (that's around $5.6 million or 3.6 million Euros) for a double-storey building on the beachfront - and she plans to demolish it!

OMG...that's beautiful, and spectacular, and such a waste to demolish it.
Please visit me at Dallas Daily Photo.
Very nice looking house. You have some blog. Love the pictures. I live in New York.
Beautiful! I live in the States and my friends in South Africa tell me I must go to Cape Town the next time I visit SA. I can understand why they love it so. Lovely place.
That is a very cool photo. It must be amazing to sit on the back porch and look up at the mountain.
I was going to buy a house in CT about 5-6 years ago. About R1 million on Platekloof II. I didn't and it sold for R1.5 million a couple of years later. The house prices are getting ridiculous now. I blame the Brits. They can't afford to buy in the UK, and so are looking to buy elsewhere.
Oh well, what can you do? :-)
I love the angle of the shot.
wow what a very beautiful house.
