Jeffreys Bay Jeffreys Bay is a picturesque town situated on the coast of the Eastern Cape. Bracketed by an amphitheatre of towering mountains and its world renowned surfing beaches. Talented surfers skilled to ride their boards in the tubes of majestic waves or just ahead of the great white rollers will tell you that the professional rate Jeffreys Bay amongst the ten best surfing points in the world. Jeffreys Bay (Afrikaans: Jeffreysbaai) (34°02′S 24°55′E) is located on the magnificent Garden Route. The town is situated just off the N2 Highway, about an hour's drive southwest of Port Elizabeth. Jeffreys has grown from a sleepy little fishing town over the past few years and is one of the fastest expanding town / city in the country. Jeffreys Bay has been one of the fastest growing towns in South Africa over the past 20 years The development Jeffreys Bay has been one of the fastest growing towns in South Africa over the past 20 years and although fragmented retail nodes had sprung up along the main beachfront road, its CBD has become congested. In 2002 when the property market had started booming, the developers recognized the trend in Jeffreys Bay and decided to utilize farm land to develop a ‚new business and shopping node' for Jeffreys Bay and the whole Kouga region. With this 600 ha tract of land, the developers could plan and design a modern mixed-use development, comprising retail, commercial, industrial, residential and retirement components. Within the first 18 months of operations, the business had generated R70 million of property sales. The developers were approached by Atterbury Properties who had developed a number of shopping malls around the country and had also purchased adjacent land for a residential golf development. A transaction for the mall land was concluded and construction commenced in August 2007. This high-profile mall development has had the effect of precipitating sales of retail, commercial, industrial and residential properties in the development. The effect of having a mall in close proximity has encouraged local businesses to follow the concentration of consumers to the development. This convergence of commerce has been referred to as ‚The Power of The Mall,' which effectively creates a powerful growth node. In order to provide businesses the opportunity to be located as close as possible to the mall, the developers have created a Business Park next to the mall and alongside the main access road from the N2 highway into Jeffreys Bay. With all the existing industrial land already taken up, the Industrial Park development, positioned opposite the mall on the other side of the Humansdorp road, provides a supply of new light industrial developments to the area. Although the Industrial Park and Business Park are 75% sold out, there are still prime sites available, which, in the light of the growth node principle, constitute excellent investment opportunities. The construction of a new regional mall is the first sign of massive growth coming to an area. This has been the case at Fourways mall in Johannesburg, Gateway in Umhlanga, Lifestyle in Ballito and the Somerset mall where the new mall has been the catalyst to massive growth. The dominant regional mall attracts massive numbers of consumers and other businesses move to the area to capitalise this consumer traffic. This sets in motion a domino effect and the demand for key locations drives up the value of the properties around the mall. In a 2008 research project on investment decisions by JSE-listed property funds, it was found that the asset rated as the top contributor to growth in these portfolios is the dominant regional mall. What type of property value growth do these malls generate? Property adjacent to Gateway mall at Umhlanga showed 400% growth over 6 years Somerset mall's adjacent property grew by an average of 29% for ten years! Similar figures were seen where new dominant malls were built in Ballito, George and Nelspruit The regional shopping mall, is surrounded by the business park and industrial park, providing excellent commercial property investment opportunities. The growth in the property values around the mall are expected to follow the same trend as properties around the malls in Ballito, George and Somerset west, So whether you decide to buy the land to hold for capital appreciation or erect a building to create an annuity based income stream you are assured that investments in retail growth nodes yield the best financial returns.

With the first title deed going back to March 1692, the magnificent Cape Dutch homestead on Weltevreden Estate, just outside Stellenbosch, was built in 1812 by Deborah Retief, sister of the Voortrekker leader Piet Retief. The property was declared a National Monument in 1975, and today, nearly a decade of painstaking labour and attention to detail by the current owners has culminated in a beautifully restored house and surrounding buildings, manageably situated on 3,74 hectares. The main homestead is west facing, and is built in orthodox "H" shape. Approaching the house along a gravelled, tree-lined driveway, one cannot fail to be impressed by the grand proportions that mark the zenith of the Cape's neo-classical period. The design of the six gables is typical of the kind imported to the Cape with the European classical revival. Inside, original quarry tiled floors and yellowwood floors combine with magnificent stinkwood doors inlaid with yellowwood banding, to give a most impressive array of comfortable and elegant rooms; cool central 'fore' and 'after' rooms with large stable doors, three beautiful rooms adaptable as either living rooms, bedrooms or library, an authentic kitchen with gigantic hearth and stairway accessing nearly 260 square metres of upstairs space , a large bathroom and guest cloakroom area, and outside the kitchen, a delightful outside dining area under vines. A cellar beside the house is dated 1804, and displays a gable of late 'holbol' style. This building is nearly 30 metres in length, and presents ideal accommodation for a restaurant, conference venue, office space, or even extra living accommodation. Across a large lawned area it faces a building of later vintage, which the owners have converted indoors into three en suite bedrooms, complete with entrance hall, meeting room as well as an office. Facing back to the main homestead is a delightful wagon shed, flanked by an intriguing hay or fodder tower. The wagon shed has also been converted to house a pair of charming two-bedroomed flatlets, each with their own bathroom. Other buildings on the property comprise discreet parking for four vehicles, and a further building which houses three stables, storage and tack room. Complimenting these wonderful historic buildings are lovely lawns, a small stream and a quite breathtaking formal garden, also the result of years of patient nurturing. About one-and- a-half hectares of land is still fallow, and can be put to vines or some other agricultural pursuit, if so desired! In all, a most unique property just over an hour away from Cape Town airport, and in not too isolated a position in lovely rural Stellenbosch environs. Weltevreden Estate can be acquired purely for residential purposes, but also lends itself to development in many other ways.
