Vacant Land For Sale in St Helena Bay

Property description

Boasting pristine beaches, breathtaking mountain ranges, and stunning wildflower displays, the West Coast has become a sought-after holiday destination.

The down-to-earth locals proudly call the West Coast home, where traditional delicacies like snoek, mussels, crayfish, and bokkoms are a way of life.

Lampiesbaai is situated in the Peninsula, just 160km from Cape Town and near the picturesque Britannia Bay, known for its stretches of untouched beaches.

The distinctive ‘Sandveld’ architectural style of the West Coast has been revived, showcasing a design that perfectly complements the region. This style features a pitched-roof, a rectangular core structure, and flat-roofed extensions with white walls, small windows, and door openings, all tailored for the hot, arid climate. The simplicity of this architecture exudes a romantic charm, originally incorporating large fireplace extensions, known as “Es,” which foster a cozy atmosphere ideal for family gatherings in farm-style kitchen spaces.

St Helena Bay, historically significant as the spot where Vasco da Gama first arrived in South Africa on November 7, 1497, was named Bahia de Santa Helena in honor of Saint Helena, a devoted Christian and mother of Constantine I.

In Lampiesbaai, you’ll discover beautifully designed gardens enclosed by low walls, as residents strive to create inviting spaces that harmonize with the local environment. These gardens often feature a diverse array of succulents and indigenous plants, adorned with charming trinkets and ornaments. The sense of community fosters a feeling of security, allowing residents to display decorative items in their gardens without concern for them disappearing. (Information found on Lampiesbaai website)
