The Garden Route of the Western Cape stretches along a breath taking- meander of the Indian Ocean.
Towns in this part of the Western Cape region could be classified as the playground for the rich and this is most notable when looking at the property market and property usage.
The town of Wilderness is set in The Wilderness National Park which is by itself a sight to behold to then add properties of prestigious status on the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains facing the Indian Ocean then property values really do make perfect sense.
Wilderness is both a residential town and an exclusive holiday retreat and is favoured by local as well as international tourists.
International property investors prefer the coastal town and more so Cape Town and the Garden Route as a place to securely invest in holiday property.
The architecture of homes in Wilderness is equally spectacular with homes constructed on the slopes of the mountain which many make full use of for ocean views and light exposure. It is also in some sense an added security feature with homes constructed on multilevel spaces.
Property usage in Wilderness consists of freehold homes, small holdings and farms and of course a number of vacant stands.
Vacant stands are the ideal starting point for the well-heeled to owner-build their dream second holiday home as the important aspects like a stable growth market and demand drive the market in Wilderness.
Wilderness has its own suburbs and this offers the opportunity for permanent residents to be included in the exclusive market at an entry level with the benefit of the general property market being driven by the exclusive homes.
As a residential town, Wilderness and its suburbs have access to schools such as Hoekwil Primary School, Glenwood House School, Parkdene Secondary School and a bit further George Secondary School.
During peak holiday seasons Wilderness, Knysna and George are a hive of tourist activity which means vacant land could be developed as guest houses or B&B’s for those in the hospitality industry and it is also a region which is not a seasonal holiday destination exclusively.
