Stellenbosch property offers the best residential properties, smallholdings, wine farms, apartments and flats, guest farms, cottages and wine farms in the Cape Winelands and Western Cape region.

In addition to the world renowned wine industry, Stellenbosch in the Cape Winelands is known for its historical buildings, the Stellenbosch University (Maties) and a rich and diverse cultural life. The town is affectionately known as Eikestad, meaning “town of oaks”, and nestles between mountains, orchards, and vineyards, with the False Bay seashore, the Cape Town International Airport, five major golf courses, the city of Cape Town and the Cape Peninsula a stone's throw away
.
As the viticulture heartland of Southern Africa, Stellenbosch has the oldest wine route in the country.

The town offers almost every outdoor activity you could desire - from world-class sports facilities to popular mountain bike routs, hiking trails and easy access to at least six of the best golf courses.

Coetzenburg, the landmark university sports grounds on the banks of the Eerste River, has nurtured some of South Africa's top athletes and sports stars, as well as being the scenic venue for events and music festivals.

Annual events on the calendar are athletics (February and March), Maties Rag (February), Woordfees (March) Stellenbosch Festival (September and October), Stellenbosch Wine Festival (August / September) and the Simon van der Stel Festival (October), when thousands of visitors join the locals - some of them year after year - to enjoy the best the town has to offer.

The Stellenbosch area offers superb scenic views over mountains, vineyards and orchards, in many places covered with wild flowers in the spring. Indigenous vegetation is of the most beautiful in the country, with many a winding road leading the visitor past peaceful settings where graceful homesteads line the foothills of the mountains and where the tranquility of dams and streams make any visit to the area a special experience.

The surrounding mountain ranges reach heights of more than 1600 metres in some areas, forming a spectacular natural backdrop to the town. These include the Simonsberg, Groot Drakenstein-, Jonkershoek- and Stellenboschberge (mountains).

Several hiking trails within the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve tempt the hiker. These range from an easy 5.3 km scenic walk to the challenging 17.1 km Panorama Trail and the 18 km Swartboskloof Trail. Also worth a visit is Granny's Forest at Helderberg Farm for easy walking, where various other trails and an overnight hut is also available. The full-day Vineyard Hiking Trail is best enjoyed in autumn or spring; its 24 km distance starts on the slopes of the Papegaaiberg above the Oude Libertas Centre and meanders through the forest plantations, vineyards, olive groves and coastal renosterveld.

For a wider appreciation of the area, enjoy spectacular views whilst traversing the four passes which make up the fruit route. Starting with the Helshoogte Pass to the Berg River Valley, over the Franschhoek Pass to the upper Riviersonderend Valley, then over the Viljoenspass to Elgin and finally back to Stellenbosch down the Sir Lowry's Pass.

Stellenbosch offers some of the best national and international art collections, many lovely theatres and music venues, among them the oldest music school in South Africa, the University's Conservatoire. The town is also a central visiting point on the Western Cape Arts and Craft Route.

Stellenbosch promises a unique town experience with the proud accolade that a large group of visitors come back year after year, with many of them buying houses and apartments in the town. The decision to buy property in Stellenbosch is a lifestyle choice resulting in living near just about everything in the Cape Winelands, and within easy reach of the best the Western Cape has to offer.
