Patio leading off main bedroom . North facing units .

Ideally suited for a young couple or single person or a small family , the apartments are available for rental or for sale . The development has 42 apartments , two bedroom and two bathrooms , main en suite with bath and shower and second bathroom , shower only . At 100 sq . mt the apartment is spacious with entrance , open plan kitchen . Living room enclosed patio and parking .

In keeping with SANS 10400 XA where 50 % of hot water must be generated by alternative electrical source , hot water
is supplied by PV solar on all the roofs , which in turn feeds the hot water storage tank . One of the kitchen cupboards , which would be used as a broom cupboard , houses the hot water cylinder . Neat idea – so no more climbing in the ceiling to reach the storage tank .
All compulsory standards were adhered to . Construction and project management was handled in house and completion of the development was scheduled for May 2021 . Despite Covid and rain , the team achieved this deadline .
