One of Port Elizabeth’s most popular suburbs, Mount Pleasant is very popular with young couples wanting to start families. The peaceful community is close to schools, shops and the sea.
Property options include traditional family homes and modern townhouse complexes. There are a number of large gardens and swimming pools, and the whole area is well-maintained and full of greenery. You’ll see people riding horses in the area, and it’s only a few minutes from Sardinia Bay, with cycling routes to either Seaview or Marine Drive.
