Schoongezicht began as a dream. It was the dream of several like-minded foreign investors, who had already seen most of the world and were now searching for a place for themselves where they would be able to fulfil their personal ideas and concepts for a future home.
In search of tranquillity and peace of mind, Schoongezight is close to the sea and beaches. A place where the beauty of nature remains largely unspoiled, with a moderate, healthy climate and plenty of sunshine.
Plettenberg Bay is a town where the infrastructure is functioning, excellent restaurants and shopping facilities are available, and with all essential services in close proximity. A place where one can leisurely pursue most sporting interests at different courses, as well as tennis and water sports, without being surrounded by endless streams of tourists.
Schoongezight Country Estate retains a comfortable, relaxed outdoor lifestyle, in the heart of South Africa’s Garden Route.
A delicate balance with nature
Schoongezicht Estate’s original vegetation assessment was done by renowned fynbos and vegetation experts, environmental consultants, and forestry professionals to form the agreement into which the estate enters with purchasers.
Property owners are expected to comply with the requirement to maintain 25% of the ERF in an entirely natural condition and to confine their garden planning to the list of indigenous trees, shrubs, and flowers as recommended.
These environmental efforts allow us to claim the title of the leading ecological, indigenous estate.
There are three basic vegetation types: pure fynbos, thicket, and the forest, which has about 32 different indigenous tree species. The presence of the famous Bitou bush often identifies thicket.
