ECO-ESTATE LIVING
Boskloof Eco Estate is one of the most sought-after ecological estates in the country and offers an unparalleled habitat for its residents where man lives in harmony with nature. This security estate is carefully designed with sensitive landscaping and energy-efficient construction, and also minimises harm to the environment, through overexploitation of natural resources. It is nestled within protected mountainside fauna and flora, and overlooks the entire False Bay Coastline with spectacular views of Table Mountain, the Cape of Good Hope and the Hottentots Holland mountains.
Residents in the estate enjoy guaranteed privacy and security with high perimeter fencing, 24-hour patrols and CCTV camera monitoring operated by highly trained staff.

It is situated at the top eastern part of the estate flanked by the Hottentots Valley Mountains and coastline on the other side.

A spacious lounge, with two sets of stacking doors, opens up to the outdoor entertainment area and a wooden deck that overlooks the estate.
