Stunning OFF-GRID House In Small Estate

NO TRANSFER DUTY This beautifully well thought of small Estate has building plans that provides each home with enough OFF THE GRID POWER in the form of roof mounted photo voltaic panels, gas for cooking and water heating and a standby generator. The Orchards aims at making Owners as independent as possible in a cost-effective way with a constitution that is upheld by a Homeowners Association that will protect the collective interest of its members. The whole property is 3,2 hectares in size, with nineteen erven (seventeen of which are dedicated to the homes of The Orchards@Knysna), zoned general residential, of differing sizes and orientation with 16,000㎡ of common property. The Orchards uniqueness lies in the fact that it is a small, eco-friendly, off the power grid, exclusive development on a hilltop with understated style and quality at affordable prices and inexpensive to maintain with very few fortunate Owners, encouraging a self-sufficient country lifestyle. It has generous road verges and boundary hedges of vines, fruit or nut trees. Focused attention has been given to landscaping the road verges and common property with vineyards, fruit and nut trees, the produce of which will be shared between the owners. A purchaser will purchase and take transfer of a site and, simultaneously with the purchase, conclude a building contract for the construction of the home on the site. Construction must commence within two years of transfer of the property into the purchaser’s name and be completed within a year of the building commencement date.
