Super-exclusive New Homes in Cape Town From R11.995m

Category Property News

The pressing demand for residential property in Cape Town’s Southern Suburbs is increasingly spurring densification in the most sought-after areas, with compact upmarket gated developments becoming an emergent trend.

Due for completion in May 2017, the Hoogeind luxury homes in Cape Town's Upper Claremont are each named after a different Devon town, and range in price from R11.995 million to R22.995 million including VAT - click here to view.

The latest exclusive development is due to launch in sought-after Claremont Upper in February.

This is according to Brendan O’ Brien of Urban Space Property Group, who says Hoogeind is a contemporary development consisting of only nine freestanding designer homes - essentially a secure 'village-within-a-village’, which offers residents both peace of mind and the ultimate urbane lifestyle.

“It has been a 10-year journey to actualise our vision to harness the grace and character of a period home and blend it with 21st century contemporary homes, and we are proud to see that vision finally become a reality,” he says.

At the heart of the development is the original Manor House of the same name, which will be remodelled into a luxury, modern home whilst retaining its architectural integrity and Victorian and Edwardian influences.

“Architecturally, the eight new homes to be constructed around the original homestead are a unique blend of traditional familiarity and elegant modernity,” says O’Brien.

“They also vary in size, appealing to a cross-section of buyers from families and young professionals to couples downsizing after their children have flown the nest.”

However, he says regardless of size, the design of each spacious home incorporates direct access double garaging, open-plan kitchen, dining and living opening out to private gardens with swimming pools and a choice of three or four en suite bedrooms, including sumptuous master suites with walk-in closets.

“Another integral feature enjoyed by all residents is the reassurance of top-of-the-range security,” says O’Brien. 

 “A 24-hour manned gatehouse, analytical cameras, electric fencing around the entire perimeter and monitored security cameras ensure the safety of the estate, while each home is secured with independent alarm systems with external infra-red beams and  ‘IntruderPrufe’ glass in all doors and windows.”

The centrality of Claremont also allows for easy access to major freeways and many main routes, allowing residents easy access to a wide variety of amenities, from a choice of beaches and wine farms to botanical gardens, cycling and hiking trails, with the city centre less than 20 minutes away.

Barbara Manning, Area Specialist for Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty in Bishops Court and Upper Claremont, says that the developers have also incorporated eco-sustainability as a key design element.

“Each unit has been fitted with several key energy and resource-saving systems, such as efficient water-heating systems, dual-flush cisterns, and hardwood floors sourced from sustainable resources,” she says.

There are contemporary finishes throughout, with buyers having a choice of two colour palettes, and all the kitchens are fitted with Smeg stoves with gas tops and extractor hoods.

With five of the nine units already sold before going to market, O’Brien says it is testament to the investment value of such properties.

“Premium homes in exclusive and highly sought-after areas like Claremont Upper rarely become available for purchase and, when they do, they tend to sell quickly,” he says.

“When demand outweighs supply in desirable upmarket suburbs, investment almost always yields exceptional returns, irrespective of market conditions, with properties in secure estates being especially receptive to significant capital growth.”

Lew Geffen, Chairman of Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty, says Claremont Upper is especially attractive to investors as it offers residents a multitude of appeal factors that few other areas can match.

“Everything they could possibly need is virtually on their doorsteps, from a choice of top-class retail centres, popular eateries and first-rate medical facilities to a variety of outdoor activities and sports facilities,” says Geffen.

“Families are especially drawn by Claremont Upper’s proximity to several of the country’s top schools and the University of Cape Town, as well as the tranquil atmosphere of this established historical suburb.”

The centrality of Claremont also allows for easy access to major freeways and many main routes, allowing residents easy access to a wide variety of amenities, from a choice of beaches and wine farms to botanical gardens, cycling and hiking trails, with the city centre less than 20 minutes away.

Due for completion in May 2017 and jointly marketed by Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty and Greef Properties, The Hoogeind homes, each named after a different Devon town, range in price from R11.995 million to R22.995 million including VAT.
