Why families look here
The coast north of the city (Milnerton, Table View, Parklands, Sunningdale, Bloubergstrand and Melkbosstrand) used to have few retirement options. That has changed. Large life-right estates have opened in Sunningdale and Burgundy Estate, and a string of small assisted living and frail care homes now serve families who already live in the area.
Netcare Blaauwberg Hospital and Mediclinic Milnerton are both close, and the city centre is 15 to 30 minutes away depending on traffic on the R27 and N7. Cape Town International is roughly 30 minutes from Milnerton and a little more from Melkbos.
Most new estates here sell life rights, so a buyer pays once and gets the money back, less a deduction, when the unit is resold. Read life right vs sectional title before you sign. For care, the small homes in Table View and Melkbos are often easier to get into than the big frail care centres in the Southern Suburbs.
