After the success of the first three phases, the pace of construction stepped up considerably, fuelled by a consistently high level of sales from plan. When completed, Plover’s Rest will consist of 128 freestanding, double-storey townhouses, and the now sold out Kingfisher Terrace’s 51 luxury garden cottages. Stone Pine Place, which looks out onto the Six hectare stand of eponymous trees will consist of 103 two three and four-bed family homes ranging in price from R 2 million to R 4.7 million. The flagship development, The Lakes, will comprise 58 luxury homes in carefully selected positions to capitalise on views of the lake, the mountains and the forest. All sales are handled in house, and financing is facilitated through BetterBond. Property sales require a deposit of R25 000 to reserve your unit and then require the balance to be secured within 30 days, subject to bond approval or guarantees. From signing to moving in usually takes about 12 months. There is one overall Master HOA, and each phase also has its own independent HOA. When complete, the estate will have 800 residential units of the various styles, catering to different market sectors. There are two construction teams – Group Five and Manor Homes. Water is, of course, a challenge, but both teams bring in their own water for construction. All plans are done by Schabort Associates Architects, who have been with the project from inception. www.estate-living.com | 9
