Land for sale near Cape Point ~ Baskloof Nature Reserve
A once-in-a-generation opportunity to own 214 hectares of private wilderness on the edge of the Atlantic.
Perched above Scarborough and forming part of the Baskloof Private Nature Reserve, this extraordinary 214-hectare estate combines complete privacy, spectacular ocean and mountain scenery, pristine Cape fynbos and an established rustic werf with the rare potential to create an exceptional luxury adventure, conservation or nature-based tourism destination.
The landscape is almost entirely pristine Peninsula Sandstone Fynbos, with dramatic western slopes overlooking the Atlantic and uninterrupted views towards the Cape of Good Hope and surrounding mountains. Mature trees, restored indigenous gardens, historic cottages and contemporary structures create an atmospheric private retreat at the heart of the estate.
A UNIQUE RECREATIONAL & EVENT DESTINATION
At the heart of Baskloof lies a spectacular 1.25-million-litre dam, forming the natural focal point of the property and creating an exceptional setting for leisure, outdoor recreation, events and nature-based experiences.
The dam is complemented by a thoughtfully developed approximately 70 m² poolside lounge and entertainment pavilion, created from converted containers and incorporating a kitchenette, bar and storage facilities, with a separate soak-away toilet nearby. Positioned directly alongside the water, this space offers an appealing platform for private functions, hospitality, social gatherings and outdoor entertainment.
EVENT & COMMUNITY FACILITIES
The Co-Existence Centre, an approximately 100 m² aluminium-arched structure, provides a highly versatile covered venue. With an adjoining kitchen and children’s playground, it is particularly well suited to events, retreats, workshops, celebrations, community gatherings and experiential activities.
ACCOMMODATION & ON-SITE LIVING
The property includes a collection of existing accommodation and staff facilities, providing a practical foundation for future hospitality or tourism applications:
Historical Labourers’ Cottage – approximately 50 m²: A characterful one-bedroom cottage with potential for guest accommodation, restoration or alternative use.
Manager’s Cottage – approximately 60 m²: Dedicated staff or manager accommodation providing convenient on-site living.
STORAGE, OPERATIONS & WORKSHOP FACILITIES
A substantial 250 m² aluminium-arched workshop and storage hanger provides generous covered operational space for equipment, vehicles, maintenance, storage and potential future commercial uses.
OUTDOOR & CAMPING EXPERIENCE
A designated campsite further enhances the property’s recreational and experiential potential, with two showers and two bucket toilets already provided.
AN ESTABLISHED PLATFORM WITH MULTIPLE POSSIBILITIES
With its combination of a substantial water feature, entertainment area, event infrastructure, accommodation, workshop facilities and camping provision, Baskloof offers an unusually diverse existing platform from which to develop a destination-oriented hospitality, events, recreation, wellness or nature-based tourism concept.
The existing infrastructure provides a strong foundation for a buyer looking to further curate and develop the property into a distinctive private retreat, event destination or experiential tourism offering, subject of course to the applicable planning, zoning and regulatory approvals.
The entire property lies beyond the urban edge, presenting a rare and exciting opportunity for an owner seeking an exceptional rural lifestyle, while also requiring a thoughtful and sensitive approach to development and land use.
Lance Real Estate provides prospective owners with in-depth information regarding the property, its planning context and surrounding environment, as well as facilitating introductions to relevant local environmental organisations and municipal representatives. This ensures that prospective owners can make informed decisions and explore the property's considerable potential with a clear understanding of the opportunities, responsibilities and unique sensitivities associated with its location.
