8.2 ha Land available in Highgate

A Rare Development Opportunity. Strategically positioned in High Gate on Hindle Road just a kilometre from the R300 highway and only 2 kilometres from the N2, this prime plot sits at the intersection of accessibility and untapped potential. Neighbouring prestigious suburbs like Brentwood Park and Silversands where residential properties range from R850 000 and R900 000 for a 2-bedroom to R1.1 million up to R1.5 million for a 3-bedroom the demand fundamentals for quality development in this area are firmly in place.

The Opportunity

The land is currently zoned agricultural however this presents a compelling rezoning play for the right developer. A mixed-use or residential rezoning application is well-supported by the surrounding growth, infrastructure investment, and the area''s clear appetite for quality housing and retail. Comparable gated developments such as Bardale Village and Belladonna Estate in Blue Downs serve as strong benchmarks for the type of product this land can accommodate.

Residential Development Potential

Preliminary town planning indicates scope for approximately 310328 townhouse opportunities across 68 streets, with unit configurations ranging from 150m2 mid-block, 209m2 boundary, to 280m2 corner plots offering strong product variety and margin flexibility for the developer.

Retail Development Potential

With the nearest shopping centre approximately 2km away, anchored by Shoprite, there is a measurable retail gap in the immediate catchment. A neighbourhood retail node on this site would serve a rapidly growing residential base with limited existing competition.

What to Factor In

The land is currently unserviced. Bulk engineering infrastructure including roads, sewage and utilities will need to be established as part of the development scope. These costs should be modelled into your feasibility accordingly.
