Just some of the many extras include borehole water, air conditioning, an expansive generator system and an extra large 3 car garage for all the family to enjoy!
Parel Vallei is in the catchment area for some of the best schools in the Western Cape and is known as one of the finest suburbs to live in.

The area is surrounded by False Bay and the Hottentot and Helderberg mountain ranges. Somerset West is a stones throw away from Gordons Bay and Strand beaches with stunning sea views. Wine tasting in the Stellenbosch area is also a short 15 minute journey away. What better location can there be??
