Schonenberg Estate, located just off the N2 and next to the Lord Charles Hotel
in Somerset West,
was developed by prominent respected developers in the
Western Cape. Consisting of single residential homes including plots,
group sites and a retirement village, it offers a unique opportunity in investment and lifestyle.
|
The design philosophy was based on the creation of a secure complex which related harmoniously to its context, creating a desirable living environment for residents.
The layout of the estate attempts to reflect the unique characteristics of the surrounding historical landscape. It offers magnificent views of the beautiful False Bay
coastline as well as the Helderberg mountain range. Somerset West is within easy driving distance of Cape Town (about 30 minutes), the picturesque university town
of Stellenbosch as well as the many surrounding wine farms, restaurants and other attractions in this area. Schonenberg is situated directly next to Waterstone
Shopping centre (walking distance), an upmarket boutique shopping complex. Both Somerset Mall and town centre are only 5 minutes away.

The main elements of the estate include the sub-division of land through
tree lines and werf walls. There are individual water areas situated around
the complex attracting a variety of bird life together with hectares of public open space. Tree avenues and low walls are used to
define key public spaces. A safe running / walking
trail surrounds the complex.
