Woodstock, Cape Town, Western Cape

Woodstock is one of the oldest suburbs in Cape Town located around 1km East of Cape Town City CBD and has over the past decade changed dramatically from an area known for crime and drugs to a vibrant neighbourhood with a bustling melting pot of cultures, food, art and business.

Many young professionals have moved into the area due to its largely still affordable housing and pretty Victorian style semi-detached properties that have been restored to their former splendour.
