2 Lime Lane

Overlooking the beautiful Oranjekloof Reserve - one of the last extensive indigenous forests at the Cape - this wonderful north-facing site is set in an exceptional natural landscape, with walks, trails and tennis on site. This is one of only 3 plots still available to buy in this unique estate. Nestled in a beautiful, wooded expanse high up in the Hout Bay valley bordering Constantia, this corner plot affords the potential to live securely in the heart of the countryside, in relatively close proximity to Cape Town’s main commercial centres via Rhodes Drive. Well protected from the prevailing southeaster wind in summer, the one-in-four slope ensures that that every house on the estate has unimpeded views. Developers have made the most of this remarkable location with the mountain sweeping down to the sea, and indigenous vegetation has been re-introduced, including the planting of over 550 trees. On the lower section of the site, a flourishing olive grove with mature trees – some up to 70 years old – has been left intact to form an avenue through which many of the plots can be reached. Top security features at the estate include double separated electrified perimeter fences, a network of thermal imaging and visual cameras, and both off-site and on-site monitoring.
