The West Coast property market continues to attract buyers and Seeff's agents enjoyed a good year despite the economic headwinds.
Jaco and Tracey-lee Coetzee, Seeff agents in Langebaan attribute the good demand to the fact that villages of the West Coast appeal to a cross-spectrum of buyers, from residential and retirement to holiday buyers. Langebaan is also seeing a growing number of people moving here on a permanent basis, often those who work or have business interests in the surrounding towns, but also some who commute to the city.
Langebaan is Cape Town's weekend leisure hotspot and on a Friday afternoon, the R27 West Coast Road is a long string of cars as Capetonians exit the city, heading out for weekend. It also draws buyers from across the Winelands and other inland areas as it is easily accessible.
The village is especially popular with Joburg and Pretoria buyers as it offers an excellent holiday base from which to explore all of the attractions of the Cape including the wine farms. The close proximity to Cape Town and the airport adds to the attraction for upcountry buyers.
Although small and laid-back, the town offers excellent amenities including restaurants, a shopping centre, the Mykonos Casino and nearby West Coast Regional Mall. Families also have access to schools including a Curro Private School.
The lagoon provides excellent water sport opportunities and there is a yacht bay. Langebaan is also a popular kite surfing destination.
