A luxury townhouse in Cape Town, South Africa, has sparked online debate after a video showcasing the property left viewers questioning its KSh 82 million price tag. The semi-detached Victorian-style duplex is located in Three Anchor Bay, a neighbourhood near the Atlantic coastline. The property was listed by Lance Real Estate and attracted attention after TikTok account @pashapropertyglobal shared a video tour on 9 October 2026.
The fully furnished property has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and is located one block from Main Road and within walking distance of the popular Sea Point Promenade and DHL Stadium. Inside, the townhouse features high ceilings, original wooden floors and a wood-burning fireplace in the living room. The modern kitchen has navy-blue cabinetry, while additional features include a dedicated study, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom and a storeroom.
The property also has an elevated wooden deck, a front courtyard with secure off-street parking behind an automated gate, and a back courtyard featuring a barbecue area and fire pit. The home currently operates as an Airbnb, where it has a reported rating of 4.89 stars. Approved plans are also available to convert the study into a fourth bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
Despite these features, the asking price became the main talking point among viewers. Many compared Cape Town’s property prices to what the same money could buy elsewhere in South Africa. Some argued that similar properties in other parts of the country cost far less, with one viewer stating that a similar house in Gauteng could sell for about KSh 19.6 million.
The comment section did not hold back, with many viewers expressing their opinions on the price. One viewer wrote that the Cape Town property market is “ridiculously overpriced”, while another stated that the same house in a different location could easily go for about KSh 7.1 million to KSh 11.8 million. Others pointed out the lack of certain features, such as a garden or pool.
The property tour that sparked the debate was shared on TikTok and has since gone viral. The video showcases the property’s features and highlights its potential as a luxury home or Airbnb investment. However, the asking price remains a point of contention among viewers.
