The Cape West Coast is attracting increasing international attention as a pristine seaside playground, offering luxury homes in an unspoilt setting renowned for its spectacular spring-flower superbloom, excellent sailing waters and ocean-fresh seafood.

And along this coast one of the most desirable locations is the Port Owen Marina at the mouth of the Berg River in St Helena Bay. This cold-water bay offers calm and sheltered ocean-sailing and fishing conditions while for water sports enthusiasts, the river is navigable for small craft for almost 40km upstream. Sightings of the African Fish Eagle are also quite common here.

Situated between the town of Velddrif and the fishing harbour of Laaiplek, the marina is also surrounded by protected wetlands that are home to some 350 species of land, sea and river birds and underline the natural beauty of this whole coastline.

This is nowhere more evident than on Admiral Island, a private enclave within the marina that is accessible only via a bridge with 24-hour security monitoring and boasts exceptional homes that are treasured by their owners and only very rarely change hands.

Chas Everitt International is thus very proud to be able to offer two of these outstanding properties to prospective buyers on exclusive mandate.

This beautifully-located plot at the eastern side of the island lies in on the corner of the arterial Admiral Island Boulevard and a short cul-de-sac. A lovely waterfront public space is only a stone's throw away.

As an added bonus, the neigbouring plot (with jetty rights) on the east side is also available to buy, with the combined size of the two plots coming to 1836m2. For an investor or anyone not wanting to be hemmed in on a plot smaller than 500m2, this is a great opportunity to achieve total privacy in a pristine safe environment.

The river, canals and wetlands offers the best aspects of a small-town, coastal lifestyle combined with easy access to shops and other amenities. It is also only 90 minutes by road from the Cape Town international airport.
