R48m Die Boord home tops Stellenbosch’s R1.86bn property market

A R48 million home in Die Boord led residential property sales in Stellenbosch during the first half of 2026, as luxury properties made up more than a third of the R1.86 billion spent on homes in the town. Luxury market sales accounted for 35% of total residential property sales during the period. Despite high-value transactions, overall sales activity dropped by 13.4% compared to the same period last year, with the market experiencing a shortage of available homes.

Stellenbosch's luxury market continued to attract substantial investment, with eight high-value suburbs generating 45 sales worth approximately R652 million, or about 35% of total residential property sales. The five suburbs contributing the most to overall sales value were Stellenbosch Rural, Paradyskloof, Mostertsdrift, De Zalze, and Die Boord, together generating 50.54% of total residential sales value.
