About the Development
Sungazer Paradise is named after the rare and protected Sungazer lizard which is found in this area.
A game and cattle grazing farm, it offers 360 degrees of spectacular views. To the north you look over the Wilgerivier valley, to the famous Tandjiesberge and Nelson’s kop. To the south you have breathtaking views of Rensburg’s Kop, near Montrose; the Swartberg on the escarpment in Van Reenen; and, last but not least, the 3000m+ tops of the Drakensberg, which form the border with Lesotho.
We are cutting out just 10 plots of 1.2 hectare each. Each will have basic access; crisp, clear running mountain water; and electricity. There will be security on horseback to look after you and your property when you’re not there.
Each owner can build his or her own house to blend into the landscape. Construction will be required to be built according to “green building standards” with the aim of creating an eco-friendly development, conserving energy and lower the operational costs..
The house plan is a sample: future house owners will be able to design their own house, but will be requested to use the U-shape footprint. In other words, you will have a minimum of 250m2 at your disposal within the U-shape and there is an option to increase the living space with 150m2 under the roof. Our well known architect will be happy to assist you at a very reasonable fee. House owners will be asked to respect the farming environment and will have a large choice of outside finishes for the walls and the roof. You could use sandstone and combine it with thatch or bricks in combination with corrugated iron or any other combination, just as you wish. The U-shape and the orientation of the houses also protects you from the dominant winds and that allows you to use your terrace whenever you like it. There are also a large number of “green recommendations” that will allow you to build your house in a very eco-friendly way, allowing you to conserve lots of energy and money over the long term.
The sectional title subdivision is situated next to the farm road on a nice sloping hill overlooking a panorama of pristine farming land and some spectacular mountains in the background. Each stand offers you 12.000m2 of pure space and is directly accessible from the farm road. There is more than enough distance to your neighbour to warrant total privacy and tranquillity. The houses are roughly oriented in north easterly direction and offer lots of sunshine and light during the whole day. In this stunning landscape it is never too hot and the sunshine is very welcome during the cool winter days.
