CABRIRE STREET:VERY POPULAR LOCATION

For sale in theheart of Franschhoek

W

ith itsmagnificent locationamid

rolling vineyards and towering

mountains, almost every street

in the scenic village of Franschhoek can

boastofpanoramicviews,character-filled

homes and a relaxed country lifestyle.

Yet if one had to choose a contender for the

most popular address in the village, then

Cabrire Street would certainly be a finalist,

if not the outrightwinner. PamGolding Prop-

erties (PGP) reports that the street, which

runs parallel to themain thoroughfare of Hu-

guenot Street and borders a number of wine

and fruit farms, is highly sought-after for its

magnificent views and picturesque homes.

It is also a popular address for upmarket

lodgesandguesthouses.Mosthomesare firm-

ly retained by their owners, with the result

that properties seldom come onto themarket.

This high demand and low supply environ-

ment ensures that Cabrire Street commands

someof the top prices for residential property

in Franschhoek. Fewer than five residential

homeshave changedhands in the street since

2010, with sales in this period including R5,5

million for a two-bedroomedhome andR6,233

million for a three-bedroomed home (these

figures include sales by all agencies).

PGP recently concluded a sale of R9,1 mil-

lion for a three-bedroomed home with guest

cottage, which is awaiting registration. Prop-

erties facing the vineyards fetch even more,

and over the past five years, a few of these

homes have sold for over R10 million.

PGP Franschhoek agents Doug Gurr and

Shelly Schoeman say Cabrire Street, like

many others in the village, traces its name

back to the initial French Huguenot settlers.

When theHuguenots fled France to escape

religious persecution in the late 1600s, many

brought with them the French vine rootstock

which would help establish the valleys fa-

mousvineyards.Mostnamed theirnewfarms

after the regions they had left behind, and

these were echoed in the street names as the

village developed. In this case, the street is

named for the Cabrire region in the south

of France a name still attached to some of

the most prolific and high-quality vineyards

in the valley.

Most homes in Cabrire Street lie within

easy walking distance of the bustling village

centre with its world-class food and wine ex-

periences, boutique shopping and art galler-

ies. Yet they are far enough removed from the

main road to offer a tranquil and unhurried

lifestyle with an atmosphere of rural peace.

It is quite simply one of the most outstanding

locations in Franschhoek.

PGP currently has the exclusive mandate

to market a substantial family home in

Cabrire Street, enjoying unfettered views

across the adjacent fruit andwine farm to the

surroundingmountains. Set on an erf of over

1600 m, thehome is inpristine condition, and

offers five bedrooms as well as a separate

guest cottage. Schoeman notes that homes of

this size are seldom found in the village. The

property is on the market at R13,9 million.

The character-filled homehas typical coun-

try features such as thatched roof, wooden

shutters, oak staircase and screed floors. Yet

it also offers the very best elements of luxuri-

ous modern living, from top-quality integrat-

ed kitchen appliances to under-floor heating,

heated towel rails, ADSL and WiFi.

There are five family bedrooms in themain

house, three of them en suite and the remain-

ing two sharing a bathroom and dressing ar-

ea.Themainbedroomsuite leadsonto its own

private balcony, ideal for enjoying sunsets

over the mountains. Living areas include

both formal and informal entertainment are-

as with two fireplaces, and retractable doors

allowing for excellent indoor/outdoor flow.

Theexterior includes twounder-coverpatios,

one with a built-in braai, which give way to

a lovely garden and large solar-heated pool.

Other features include a study with built-in

bookshelves and a spacious eat-in kitchen

with separate scullery.

The guest cottage, which is adjacent to the

house but has its own private entrance and

balcony, offers an en suite bedroom, sitting

area and kitchenette. The double garage has

an adjacent home office space and separate

laundry roomwith drying courtyard. Securi-

ty features include an alarm system, exterior

beams and electric fencing on two sides of the

property.

To view the property or for more informa-

tion call PGP agents Doug Gurr (072 610 7208)

and Shelly Schoeman (083 301 8833), or their

office on 021 876 2100 or e-mail wine-

million. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

Developments worth considering

Back in 2005 / 2006 when the

market was booming, develop-

ers were laughing all the way to

the bank. Buyers were queuing

up to purchase. Bankswere fall-

ing over themselves to do the fi-

nance.And if youwanted a slice

of the pie, you had to sign very

one-sided agreements to pur-

chase.

But times have changed.

When the economic crisis came

thefinancefromthebanksdried

up. Buyers stopped purchasing,

and many developers were stuck up a creek

without a paddle. For a few years develop-

ments almost came to a standstill.

Were in 2013 now, and over

the last few yearsmany develop-

ers have learnt an important les-

son: Develop a product the buy-

ers want and offer outstanding

value.

And its working! Kelderhof

Country Village and Somerset

Country Estates are prime ex-

amples. These developers have

found a way to deliver a first-

class product at prices no one

can match. Where else can you

buy a brand new homewith out-

standing finishes in a secure estate for less

thanasecond-handresaleproperty in thesub-

urbs?

And whats more, the developers are fund-

ing the construction themselves, at their own

cost, and delivering a completed property to

the purchaser who only pays on transfer.

Somerset Country Estate properties by

KingsHill are almost sold out in just over a

year. And Kelderhof Country Village is sell-

ingatunprecedentedrates.Buyerenquiry for

these products has exceeded all expectations.

Following closely in their footsteps are Sil-

ver Fox andBlue Crane Estates. Both of these

estates now offer a much improved range of

newhomeson freestandingplots fromas little

as R995 000 including VAT. The developer fi-

nancesandconstructsthehomes,andthebuy-

er only pays on completion and transfer. The

buyer also gets to choose their finishes from

the developers range so they can put their

own personal touches on their new home.

Croydon Olive Estate has now also

launched a range of Turnkey homes sold on

the same basis. These architect-designed

homes open onto olive groves, offer a secure

lifestyle, and homeowners also benefit from

a luxurious lifestyle centre, pool, and gym.

All five estates are marketed by Harcourts

Platinum, who have played a large role in

helping these developers deliver a Turnkey

product themarket wants, at prices that they

cant ignore. So, if you thought that owning

a brand new home in a secure estate was be-

yond your reach, then think again.

These developers are bending over back-

wards to offer you a world-class product at

prices youwill never see again. The prices in-

clude VAT, so your only additional costs are

attorneys transfer fees, and bond registration

costs. While many still long for the good old

days some developers have listened to the

market and adapted.

SA real estate industry

hasenteredanewera

South Africas beleaguered real estate

industry has entered a new erawith the

signing of a memorandum of under-

standing by its two biggest self-govern-

ing bodies.

Thats the word from Jeanne Van Jaars-

veld, generalmanager ofHarcourts SAand

vice president of the Institute of Estate

Agents of South Africa (IEASA), who re-

gards the partnership between the long-es-

tablished Institute and newly formed Real

Estate Business Owners of South Africa

(Rebosa) as a major step towards profes-

sionalising the sector.

Collectively, the IEASA and Rebosa

represent an overwhelming portion of the

real estate industry, he says. Together,

they intend to carve a new road into the

countrys property landscape in the inter-

estsof thepublicaswell asbusinessowners

and estate agents.

Van Jaarsveld believes that the partner-

ship is another welcome and positive step

towards making the sector, more profes-

sional, following the transfer of the Estate

AgencyAffairs Board (EAAB) from the De-

partment of Trade and Industry to the De-

partment of Human Settlements under the

watchful eye of Minister Tokyo Sexwale.

The EAAB is the government-appointed

industry regulator so its critical that its

governance is sound. The transfer of the

EAABandtherealestate industry toMinis-

ter Sexwales department was a strategic

move by government and one that has

proved to be extremely successful.

To this end, he endorses Sexwales deci-

sion to appoint advocate Taswell Papier to

administer theEAAB, saying thathismove

had paid off. Advocate Papier got stuck in-

to getting the EAABs house in order, as a

result of which the administration of the

EAAB has been lifted and it has a new act-

ing CEO at the helm.

The signing of the memorandum of un-

derstanding is a further indication of the

move towards turning the industry into a

professional one, and one that could not

have come at amore important time, he be-

lieves.

The real estate sector is poised for dra-

matic legislative changes this year so its

critical that all role players have a voice

at the relevant forums. If we dont take this

seriously, decisionswill bemade for the in-

dustry without consultation, which could

have far-reaching effects on its functionali-

ty in terms of transformation, regulation,

education, qualification, EAAB inspec-

tions and SARS to name but a few. After

numerous meetings and negotiations in

2012, the IEASA, which currently repre-

sents both employees (agents) and employ-

ers (principals), and Rebosa (which repre-

sents employers) have come to a clear un-

derstanding of how to best represent the

industry inanequal, representativeand in-

clusive manner, he says.

According to Van Jaarsveld, one of the

partnershipskeyobjectives is thetransfor-

mation of the industry in a way that will

benefit both employees and business own-

ers going forward.

Statistics released by the EAAB at the

end of 2012 show that the real estate indus-

try ispredominantlywhite,withamere8%

(2917) of the 34 191 registered estate agents

being black. This is a concern but in same

breath a huge opportunity, since the black

middle class home owner is the fastest

growing segmentof themarket.According-

ly, the partnership will focus on creating

awarenessamongblackpeopleoftheviabil-

ity of real estate as a career, not only finan-

cially but also with regard to personal

growth and development prospects.

Further to this, he says the affiliation be-

tweenthetwoentitieswill serveasaspring-

board for industry-related bodies to engage

inmeaningfuldiscussionsaboutkey issues

such as legislation and industry govern-

ance.

Wewelcome tighter controls suchas the

Receiver of Revenues new taxation rules

on agents commission,whichwhile not di-

rectly affecting buyers and sellers, does en-

courage estate agents and principals to en-

sure their own houses are in order, Van

Jaarsveld says.

IEASA,which represents

both employees (agents)

and employers

(principals), and Rebosa

(which represents

employers) have come to

a clear understanding of

how to best represent the

industry...
