Our Story


In 2018, after years in the real estate industry and a shared dream for a new chapter, Charl and Tarryn Els relocated their family to Cape Town. They settled in Sunningdale, a neighbourhood they quickly fell in love with — its community, its energy, and its lifestyle.


With over a decade of experience behind them, including owning Aida franchises in Gauteng and Knysna, they knew they wanted to bring something unique to the Blouberg property market. Something more personal. More hands-on. More client-focused.


And so, CT Lifestyle Estates was born — a boutique agency built on trust, integrity, and genuine relationships.


“CT” represents Charl & Tarryn, a reminder that every client works directly with the owners, not a corporate team.


Their vision was simple:

Premium, boutique service at a low commission rate — without ever compromising on quality or care.


Today, CT Lifestyle Estates has become known for personalised attention, consistent communication, and exceptional results in Sunningdale and its surrounding areas. Clients become family, and every sale or purchase is handled with the same dedication Charl and Tarryn built their business on.


  • It’s not just real estate.


  • It’s service with heart.


  • It’s boutique.


  • It’s personal.


  • It’s CT Lifestyle Estates.
