The Whale Rock Story

The exclusive Whale Rock development at Plettenberg Bay is about to enter its third phase, with the release of new plots. Many of these are part of a lifestyle village, which has its own frail care centre and small commercial nucleus. The launch should help to satisfy the pent up demand for investment property in the area.
Over the past few years, a standard for quality has been created at Whale Rock and Sanderlings by Amazing Estates. This South African company has access, through Belgian partners, to international expertise in tourism-related property investment and development. Amazing's highly professional approach took only a couple of years to have a visible effect on market trends.
The first element in Phase 3 is an exclusive, secure estate at Whale Rock Ridge, off the road leading to Robberg peninsula. Some of the 1000 square metre plots look north over the bay to the Outeniqua Mountains; others face south to the Robberg Nature Reserve and the Indian Ocean. What they all have in common is a close proximity to Robberg beach. Strict, environment-friendly building regulations ensure that all residents will enjoy the widest views possible, combined with privacy.
The Lifestyle Village is within walking distance of the beach and close to new shops. Roads and services in Phase 1 are installed and several houses are complete on generous plots, with others still being built, such as the Frail Care Centre which will be finished early next year.
Purchasers may move into their new homes - chosen from five basic types - at their own convenience.
Floorplans include en-suite bedrooms and open plan granite top kitchens with separate scullery and laundry. Among the quality fittings are automated garage doors and appliances by Bosch and Siemens.
The residents will be close to nature, with boardwalks and bird viewing platforms in the reedy "vlei". Residents will also have access to tennis and golf; a swimming pool, a chip 'n putt course and bowling green,all located on the estate.
Observers note that the Whale Rock developments have been responsible for creating a firmer tone in the Plettenberg Bay property market as a whole, boosting investment value. Whale Rock will continue to play a leading role in determining price structures, with welcome spin off effects for the local economy and community.
