Parklands property for sale

Parklands is located across Table Bay and is effectively the gateway to the West Coast, lying alongside the quiet residential areas of Table View and Sunningdale.

With access to the beaches of Blaauwberg, yet located only 15 minutes away from Cape Town's CBD, Parklands is a new, modern suburb which has been carefully planned to incorporate over 40 parks, creating a safe, secure, low density family friendly environment.

As one of the fastest growing residential areas in South Africa, Parklands property is both varied and abundant and ranges from affordable apartments, modern townhouses in cluster developments to lavish, top-end family mansions with all the amenities associated with luxury Cape living.

Although the beaches of Milnerton, Bloubergstrand and Melkbosstrand are only minutes away, Parklands properties remain reasonably priced, providing some of the most attractive investment opportunities in Cape Town.

With average Parklands residents falling within the low thirties age group, the quiet, tranquil residential area is attractive to entry-level buyers, young families and those seeking a relaxed, coastal atmosphere.

Parklands Attractions

Apart from the fabulous views across the bay of Robben Island and Table Mountain, Parklands residents are able to enjoy a number of attractions
