Clara Anna Fontein Lifestyle Estate is a premier multi-generational security estate on the slopes of Durbanville Hills in Cape Town.
It has the perfect blend between exclusive living and the serenity of the Cape’s unrivalled beauty, with hectares of open space, it’s here where you ease into balance.
Here you’ll find a place to breathe, a home to hang your hat. Here children can be carefree, run barefoot, and grow up in their own time. Clara Anna Fontein consists of 128 hectares of peace, security, and great natural beauty set in the gently rolling hills above Durbanville, with spectacular views all the way to the Overberg mountains in the distance.
Surrounded by farmland and wine farms, its tranquil setting belies the fact that the bustling Durbanville CBD is a few minute’s drive away and Cape Town lies beyond the hills to the South-West where you’ll find all conveniences, from dining out, and food stores, and retail therapy.
Clara Anna Fontein Lifestyle Estate directly borders a protected game reserve where animals roam down to the watering hole right in the heart of the estate. This 24-hour manned security estate delivers family and lifestyle security with sophisticated access control, biometric fingerprint identification, CCTV cameras and a patrolled electrified perimeter.
Clara Anna Fontein Lifestyle Estate has a rich history, evidence of which is the original 1700’s farmhouse that still stands on the estate, now carefully restored and renovated. There are many twists and turns in the history of the farm, from battles between humans and nature to all the tales between Dutch, locals, and everything in between that was typical of the wild 1600’s and 1700’s in Cape Town.
When Rabie Property Group entered into a joint venture with the landowner, the AFM Louw Family Trust in 2013 as a small game farm, known as the Clara Anna Fontein Game Reserve, the vision was to turn the property into the most sought-after lifestyle estate in the Northern suburbs. Today, a sprawling Lifestyle Centre is the nucleus of Clara Anna Fontein.

Juxta-positioned next to the original farmhouse, a wood, glass, and steel structure with large flowing rooms and a deck makes the most of the incredible vistas. The original farmhouse of Hendrik and Beatrix Olivier has been lovingly and carefully restored and renovated, seamlessly incorporating the clubhouse. Besides it’s partially covered furnished deck, it offers meeting rooms and a lounge for the use of residents and guests.
The games room and boma can also be reserved by residents for private functions.
Rabie’s Joint Venture partners, The Louw Family, specifically Berti Louw, was very professional and ensured all games were moved to the top end of the farm without undue stress to the animals. They still have access to the waterhole opposite the Lifestyle Centre, which makes for some spectacular sundowner views. Some of the animals on the reserve include zebra, springbok, bontebok, ostrich and eland.
Clara Anna Fontein is made up of three types of homes – 126 townhouses at The Village; 344 free standing plot and plan erven, and Oasis Life, a 125-unit retirement villag
