The lifestyle opportunity of your dreams

Exclusive Mandate –

Sea Cottage Estate is a secure, private estate situated just outside Struisbaai in the Overberg. The 22 erven, each of which are approximately 1 hectare(10 000m2)big, are close to the town of Struisbaai and lend themselves to endless possiblities. Think of small manufacturing businesses, retreats, retirement, food production, stables, getting off the grid, getting self sustainable, small scale menageries, accommodation, the list goes on, and this for me is a wonderful opportunity to acquire virgin land at the southernmost Tip of Africa.

Sea Cottage Estate is situated behind the L'Agulhas Mountain in the beauty of the natural fynbos and limestone surroundings. The aim of Sea Cottage Estate is to provide a quality country style living as well as the opportunity for an obvious and remarkable home-work environment while protecting the natural Fauna and Flora. The first of the erven has been successfully transferred, and all is in place to take ownership of these opportunities.

The concept for Sea Cottage Estate is that prospective buyers can acquire a property where they can comfortably live as well as earn a living. As per zoning for these properties, one can apply for consent uses such as veterinary clinics, hydroponic farming, nurseries, guest houses, small scale lifestyle farms, such as keeping a horse or etc. Due to agricultural zoning and the agricultural-focused nature of this development, community gardens and other efficient and green development initiatives are encouraged.

The land will be supplied with water, 5000L pump tanks and Eskom Electricity, or if you want to go off grid, an application to the Cape Agulhas Municipality to supply your own electricity. Currently the land is covered with blossoming flowers such as Proteas, and a number of stems of ‘greens’ and there is free movement of small wildlife, the development will be approached with consideration to the existing biodiversity.

The architectural style will be Cape Vernacular. A style that would both blend in with the natural beauty of its fynbos and limestone. Owners are encouraged to individualise within the guidelines and Van der Merwe Orfer Architects has drafted their beautiful vision for the estate, keeping it vernacular yet fresh and modern.

Sea Cottage Estate holds unparalleled value in an area where properties are increasingly scarce, and this kind of property has never been available. Read more...
