Nine reasons why River Dale's designer homes are in demand

Set within the idyllic Westbrook Country Estate, 128ha of lush parkland teeming with birds and indigenous plant life, you'll find River Dale.

Launched late last year, this development is the second of nine residential villages planned for the Gqeberha mega-estate; its designer homes are proving very popular and selling fast. 

River Dale offers residents a range of free-standing single- and double-storey homes, with three or four bedrooms, priced from R1.675m. True to Westbrook's ethos of offering “carefree country living on the Sunshine Coast", these homes are configured around a communal park with a children's playground, swimming pool, pathways and picnic areas.

“River Dale’s premium collection of brand-new, move-in-ready homes have been designed for discerning buyers looking for quality craftsmanship, value-for-money and excellent returns on investment,” says Kobie Potgieter, CEO of Remax Independent, sales consultants for development. 

Let's take a closer look at some of the many reasons why homes at River Dale — and indeed in Westbrook Country Estate itself — are so in demand:

In a class of its own

Westbrook sets the gold standard for secure lifestyle estates. It delivers high-quality residential homes within an iconic town and country setting, along with all the convenience, connectivity, security and efficiency worthy of a truly world-class development. 

Live, work and play

On completion, Westbrook will have its very own town centre, complete with restaurants, shops, offices, hotels, banks, a hospital and medical services, health clubs, cinemas, entertainment and much more.

Luxury living

Homes at River Dale have been skilfully designed for spacious living, with open-plan dining and kitchen spaces and excellent indoor, outdoor flow.

Meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout, with upmarket fixtures and finishes that include engineered stone kitchen countertops and Bosch stainless steel kitchen appliances.

All homes are fibre-ready and come complete with a garden, terraced covered patio and a double garage. 

Quality of life

Quality of life is a cornerstone of the Westbrook ethos, with health, lifestyle and financial benefits built in.

The development provides secure family-friendly living in affordable designer homes on an expansive estate criss-crossed with footpaths, running and cycling tracks. It’s a perfect blend of town and country living, lending itself to an active, healthy, community-orientated lifestyle. 

Multigenerational living

All generations are catered for within Westbrook. A Curro private school, located within the estate, accommodates learners from three months through to grade 12.

An Evergreen Lifestyle retirement village is also planned for Westbrook, so seniors and grandparents can enjoy a carefree retirement lifestyle while living close to their children and grandchildren.

Lock up and go

Developed with maximum security in mind, Westbrook offers exceptional peace of mind along with a convenient lock-up-and-go lifestyle ideal for young professionals. 

Sense of community

Westbrook is home to a warm and welcoming community of South Africans of all ages and from all walks of life. It is also a happy place with a village-like feel, a place where children play together and neighbours become friends.

Excellent investment

A home at Westbrook offers an unrivalled property asset and an excellent investment in one of Gqeberha’s most desirable lifestyle estates. Distinctive design, superior craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail results in homes that reflect the art of luxury modern life.

Leading development

Investor contentment is strengthened by the fact that Westbrook is developed, owned and operated by the Amdec Group, one of SA's leading developers with an exemplary 35-year track record in the development of large-scale developments both locally and abroad. 

So, if you’re looking for the home of your dreams in an idyllic country setting, don’t buy until you’ve seen River Dale in Westbrook — there really is nothing else in Gqeberha like it.
