In a post-pandemic world, our lives promise to be different from what we were once accustomed to: As more and more workers unchain themselves from the office, and embrace their new status as ‘digital nomads’, remote working has the power to transform entire districts – and that’s exactly what seems to be happening with De Waterkant in Cape Town.

Where is De Waterkant?
The suburb has been earmarked as one of Knight Frank’s ‘up and coming neighbourhoods’ for 2021: De Waterkant makes the list alongside 39 other districts, rubbing shoulders with trendy locations in Dubai, Barcelona, and Berlin. Situated next to Cape Town’s CBD, this part of town is packed with award-winning eateries, quaint stores, and astonishing living spaces.
