Welcome to Villa River 42, a private and elegant 4‑bedroom home set within a canopy of trees in Camps Bay. Designed to feel like a retreat, the property offers a quiet, nature‑rich setting with a natural river running through the garden and beneath part of the house.
Its gentle sound can be heard from the living area and third bedroom, creating a calm and distinctive atmosphere.
Although the villa feels tucked away, it is just a five‑minute walk to the beach, making it easy to enjoy both the privacy of the garden and the nearby coastline.
The outdoor area offers a comfortable and refined space to relax, with a wooden deck, swimming pool, sun loungers, and a 10‑seater dining table surrounded by greenery. An outdoor shower provides a refreshing touch after a swim or a day at the beach.
Inside, the living spaces are designed with understated luxury in mind. The lounge includes soft furnishings, a decorative fireplace, and large windows that frame views of the trees and flowing water. The open‑plan kitchen and dining area feel bright and welcoming, with a generous dining table, a second fireplace, and a fully equipped kitchen with scullery.
Upstairs, the four bedrooms offer quiet, comfortable spaces for rest. The master suite includes a king‑size XL bed, sea‑view balcony, and an en‑suite bathroom with a bath overlooking the treetops. The second bedroom opens to the front deck and includes a king‑size XL bed and workspace. The third bedroom is positioned close to the river, where the sound of the water enhances its peaceful feel. The fourth bedroom includes a king‑size XL bed and its own en‑suite bathroom.
With air‑conditioning throughout, advanced security, a double garage, and additional parking, Villa River 42 combines privacy, comfort, and natural surroundings in one of Cape Town’s most desirable locations. It’s an easy, serene retreat with a subtle sense of luxury.

Electricity:
South Africa has been experiencing periods of load-shedding (un-scheduled electricity disruptions) in the last few years. This means that electricity goes off for periods of 2.5 hours or more at a time. We often do not know in advance when this will happen. Most of our owners, however, have taken a number of measures to ensure your greatest comfort during your stay. However, there is an app you can download in order to ensure you know what times it will take place and plan your day accordingly. Please search your app store for the following app = ESP – The Loadshedding App. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause. This is, unfortunately, something that is out of our hands and governed by the South African Electricity providers. Accordingly, neither the Property Manager nor the owner shall be liable for any refunds, compensation, or discounts as a result of services being unavailable due to load shedding.
