New development feature: Oewerlust Estate, Swellendam
Category Developments
Nestled at the foothills of the majestic Langeberg mountains in the Overberg district of the Western Cape, Swellendam is South Africa's third-oldest town and combines a rich cultural history and country charm with all the convenience and comfort of modern living.
Located along the N2 almost exactly halfway between Cape Town and George, the town has a resident population of around 30 000 and boasts several primary schools as well as Swellendam High and the private Olyfkrans College. It also has a district hospital and the SwellenMark regional shopping mall as well as several smaller shopping centres.
Boasting a Mediterranean climate with long, dry summers, Swellendam is surrounded by picturesque canola, wheat, berry, sheep and dairy farms and has been an increasingly popular retirement destination for some years. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, however, it has also proved attractive to many younger professionals and artists wanting to relocate from Cape Town and other metropolitan centres and raise their families in a more tranquil, wholesome environment. Indeed, such buyers now account for around 56% of the annual property purchases in the town.
Swellendam also attracts many tourists, who come to see bontebok and the rare Cape mountain zebra in the local nature reserves,to enjoy the beautiful local hiking trails or just sample the delights of the many excellent local restaurants - and the town's own theatre.
And now there's a new lifestyle estate set in the heart of this picturesque town that offers buyers excellent security and the opportunity to relax and enjoy time spent with family and friends, and well as magnificent mountain views and proximity to healthcare, shopping and recreation facilities.
Currently being marketed by Chas Everitt Southern Cape, the Oewerlust Estate is comprised of 66 two-and three-bedroom full-title homes in single or double storey variations. Prices start at R1,975m and there are six different floor plans in all, each of which can be customised meet your specific needs and preferences, including top quality finishes and garages.
