Schoongezicht Country Estate

'An experience in nature'

Schoongezicht Country Estate, situated in Plettenberg Bay on the Garden Route, is rapidly becoming one of the most sought after residential property developments in the region.
This 60 hectare Country Estate stretches along gentle hills offering panoramic views of the Indian Ocean, the Piesang River and the Robberg Peninsula and Nature Reserve. Nestling at the foot of the Estate is the recently upgraded and very picturesque Plettenberg Bay Country Club, with its 18 Hole Championship Golf Course where all Schoongezicht residents are assured of membership if they so choose.
The need for conservation at Schoongezicht was recognised right at the outset, with the developers seeing it as an opportunity to create a distinctive and high quality environment, based on the active rehabilitation and management of the natural Flora and Fauna.

The over-riding advantages of this policy are :
o Re-establishing a permanent vegetation cover with low management and maintenance requirements.
o Creating an attractive natural environment at Schoongezicht with major aesthetic appeal.
o Maintaining high property values whilst being environmentally responsible.
o Retaining a natural asset on the Estate which has recreational potential in the form of hiking trails, bird watching or just enjoying nature.
o Substantially reducing time and cost of erf development and garden maintenance for all residents.
o Saving water because the natural vegetation, once re-established, has minimal moisture requirements.
In addition 20 hectares (one-third of the total estate) will be retained in its natural pristine condition, with 25% of each individual erf also remaining untouched.
To ensure total peace of mind, Schoongezicht has established a comprehensive safety and security strategy, whereby the whole Estate has been enclosed with electrified walls and fencing. In addition to routine patrols, the 24 Hour Security/ Guard system can also detect any disturbances with the aid of cameras and halogen lights via a computer monitor at the gatehouse.
At Schoongezicht the individual plots on offer measure from 1 200 to 2 000m2 with protected views. An overall 'Mediterranean-style' design philosophy has been adopted, which perfectly complements this natural environment.
Schoongezicht is a unique development located in one of the most beautiful and sought after areas of the world, reflecting their original vision of "an exceptional place in the sun".
