COUNTRY LIVING AT EASTFORD

EASTFORD :

If it is country living that you are looking for then the Eastford Nature Reserve has to be one of the most beautiful options available to you.

Eastford is situated in the captivating surroundings of Knysna, an area which has long been admired by nature lovers and people seeking a little peace and quiet.

With its natural diversity it's no wonder that the Eastford development made history when it became the first residential development in South Africa to be declared a registered nature reserve under Cape Nature conservation.

Since its inception some 5 years ago, Eastford has enjoyed phenomenal success via the 5 separate areas of the reserve. This diversification has enabled it to cater for all spectrums of the investor market.

4 of the 5 areas are completely sold out, with stand values showing a growth of between 100 to 240% over that 5 year period.

The ONLY stands now available (22 in total) are those at the final phase, Eastford Vale development, which is an attractive option for the retired or upwardly mobile person or family.

The stands range from 2000m2 to 4000m2 and come with the option of buying the plot complete with a functional, rustic farm cottage in Cape rural style - and all this just a 3km drive from central Knysna.

Each and every property is developed with careful consideration given to the environment, so as to preserve the wealth and value of the surroundings. The cottages say "tradition", inspired by the unique western cape architecture, each incorporating ochre coloured walls, 45 degree pitched roofs, traditional stable doors, window frames, large fireplaces and other fittings salvaged from Karoo homesteads.

In addition to the optional cottages for sale, a buyer with the necessary financial means is free to develop up to 400m2 of the property, allowing expansion in the form of a second larger home on the property.

With prices starting from R595 000 for a farm style cottage + 3000m2 stand, an investment in Eastford, combined with the ongoing growth and development in Knysna, will give you an excellent return.
