CABRIÉRE STREET: VERY POPULAR LOCATION
For sale in the heart of Franschhoek
W
ith its magnificent location amid rolling vineyards and towering mountains, almost every street in the scenic village of Franschhoek can boast of panoramic views, 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 Cabriére Street would certainly be a finalist, if not the outright winner. Pam Golding Properties (PGP) reports that the street, which runs parallel to the main thoroughfare of Huguenot 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 lodges and guesthouses. Most homes are firmly retained by their owners, with the result that properties seldom come onto the market. This high demand and low supply environment ensures that Cabriére Street commands some of the top prices for residential property in Franschhoek. Fewer than five residential homes have changed hands in the street since 2010, with sales in this period including R5,5 million for a two-bedroomed home and R6,233 million for a three-bedroomed home (these figures include sales by all agencies). PGP recently concluded a sale of R9,1 million for a three-bedroomed home with guest cottage, which is awaiting registration. Properties 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 Cabriére Street, like many others in the village, traces its name back to the initial French Huguenot settlers. “When the Huguenots fled France to escape religious persecution in the late 1600s, many brought with them the French vine rootstock which would help establish the valley’s famous vineyards. Most named their new farms after the regions they had left behind, and these were echoed in the street names as the
MOSTERTSDRIFT
This spacious, characterfilled home in Cabriére Street, Franschhoek, is on the market exclusively through Pam Golding Properties at R13,9 million. PHOTO: SUPPLIED village developed. In this case, the street is named for the Cabriére 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 Cabriére Street lie within easy walking distance of the bustling village centre with its world-class food and wine experiences, boutique shopping and art galleries. 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 Cabriére Street, enjoying unfettered views across the adjacent fruit and wine farm to the surrounding mountains. Set on an erf of over 1600 m², the home is in pristine 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 home has typical country features such as thatched roof, wooden shutters, oak staircase and screed floors. Yet it also offers the very best elements of luxurious modern living, from top-quality integrated kitchen appliances to under-floor heating, heated towel rails, ADSL and WiFi. There are five family bedrooms in the main house, three of them en suite and the remaining two sharing a bathroom and dressing area. The main bedroom suite leads onto its own private balcony, ideal for enjoying sunsets over the mountains. Living areas include both formal and informal entertainment areas with two fireplaces, and retractable doors allowing for excellent indoor/outdoor flow.

Buyers stopped purchasing, and many developers were stuck up a creek standing finishes in a secure estate for less without a paddle. For a few years develop- than a second-hand resale property in the suburbs? ments almost came to a standstill.
And what’s more, the developers are funding 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 selling at unprecedented rates. Buyer enquiry for these products has exceeded all expectations. Following closely in their footsteps are Silver Fox and Blue Crane Estates. Both of these estates now offer a much improved range of new homes on freestanding plots from as little as R995 000 including VAT. The developer finances and constructs the homes, and the buyer 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 the market wants, at prices that they can’t ignore. So, if you thought that owning a brand new home in a secure estate was beyond your reach, then think again. These developers are bending over backwards to offer you a world-class product at prices you will never see again. The prices include 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. E-mail your real estate question to steve.cd@harcourts.co.za.

‘SA real estate industry has entered a new era’
South Africa’s beleaguered real estate industry has entered a new era with the signing of a memorandum of understanding by its two biggest self-governing bodies.
That’s the word from Jeanne Van Jaarsveld, general manager of Harcourts SA and vice president of the Institute of Estate Agents of South Africa (IEASA), who regards the partnership between the long-established Institute and newly formed Real Estate Business Owners of South Africa (Rebosa) as a major step towards professionalising 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 country’s property landscape in the interests of the public as well as business owners and estate agents.” Van Jaarsveld believes that the partnership is another welcome and positive step towards making the sector, more professional, following the transfer of the Estate Agency Affairs Board (EAAB) from the Department of Trade and Industry to the Department of Human Settlements under the watchful eye of Minister Tokyo Sexwale. “The EAAB is the government-appointed industry regulator so it’s critical that its governance is sound. The transfer of the EAAB and the real estate industry to Minister Sexwale’s department was a strategic move by government and one that has proved to be extremely successful.” To this end, he endorses Sexwale’s decision to appoint advocate Taswell Papier to
administer the EAAB, saying that his move had paid off. “Advocate Papier got stuck into getting the EAAB’s house in order, as a result of which the administration of the EAAB has been lifted and it has a new acting CEO at the helm.” The signing of the memorandum of understanding is a further indication of the move towards turning the industry into a professional one, and one that could not have come at a more important time, he believes.
‘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...’ “The real estate sector is poised for dramatic legislative changes this year so it’s critical that all role players have a voice at the relevant forums. If we don’t take this seriously, decisions will be made for the industry without consultation, which could have far-reaching effects on its functionality in terms of transformation, regulation, education, qualification, EAAB inspections and SARS to name but a few. After
15
numerous meetings and negotiations in 2012, the IEASA, which currently 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 in an equal, representative and inclusive manner,” he says. According to Van Jaarsveld, one of the partnership’s key objectives is the transformation of the industry in a way that will benefit both employees and business owners going forward. “Statistics released by the EAAB at the end of 2012 show that the real estate industry is predominantly white, with a mere 8% (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 segment of the market. Accordingly, the partnership will focus on creating awareness among black people of the viability of real estate as a career, not only financially but also with regard to personal growth and development prospects.” Further to this, he says the affiliation between the two entities will serve as a springboard for industry-related bodies to engage in meaningful discussions about key issues such as legislation and industry governance. “We welcome tighter controls such as the Receiver of Revenue’s new taxation rules on agents’ commission, which while not directly affecting buyers and sellers, does encourage estate agents and principals to ensure their own houses are in order,” Van Jaarsveld says.
Chevrolet’s Trailblazer best buy QUICK PIC
T
he all new Chevrolet Trailblazer, launched late last year, has immediately caught the attention of CAR Magazine and its readers to be named as the top buy in the large SUV category of the publication’s Top 12 buys for 2013.
The Chevrolet Trailblazer boasts a practical sevenseat layout backed up by diesel engines featuring the latest technology and powerful V6 petrol engine to offer an exceptional value proposition in its segment. PIC: QUICKPIC
’n Daimler Handelsmerk
The list of CAR Magazine’s Top 12 Best Buys for 2013 was revealed to the motor industry on Tuesday 19th February with full details available in the March edition of CAR. Car’s Top 12 Best Buys for 2013 is a selection of vehicles recommended by CAR’s editorial team in 12 distinct segments. Facing tough opposition from established models in the large SUV segment, the all new Chevrolet Trailblazer was commended for its practical seven-seat layout, generous specification and off road capability. “The decision by CAR to name the Chevrolet Trailblazer as their Best Large SUV comes just months after it was launched in South Africa and is evidence of the positive
reception of the vehicle in a very competitive segment,” says Malcolm Gauld, GMSA’s vice president of vehicle sales, service, and Marketing. “As an all new design from Chevrolet, the Trailblazer has been tailored to meet contemporary customer expectations in its comparatively large market segment. Its potential popularity became evident in the pre-launch phase which translated into reality when it entered the market with a share of over 25%. The Chevrolet Trailblazer boasts a practical seven-seat layout backed up by diesel engines featuring the latest technology and powerful V6 petrol engine to offer an exceptional value proposition in its segment. Add to this best-in-class towing capability and a solid offroad capability together with exceptional onroad comfort and the Trailblazer presents itself as an extremely practical SUV as recognized by CAR.” The Trailblazer is offered in five model derivatives with prices starting at R364 000 for the 2,5 diesel 4X2 manual and continue to R486 700 for the 3,6 petrol 4X4 automatic.

Toyota sponsors its first paraplegic team for Absa Cape Epic QUICKPIC Two well-known paracyclists donned Team Toyota colours for SA’s toughest mountain bike cycle race. Team Driepoort Toyota consisting of Reuben van Niekerk and Dane Wilson is competing in the Absa Cape Epic which takes place over eight days in the Western Cape. These enthusiastic cyclists will cover 698 km and climb 15 650 m over the eight days. The race started at Meerendal Wine Estate in Durbanville on Sunday and ends at Lourensford Wine Estate in Somerset West. Toyota South Africa is firmly behind South African sport with various sponsorships in athletics, cycling and rugby. Toyota has been the official vehicle sponsor of the Comrades
marathon for five consecutive years as well as a long-standing partner of Cycle Lab SuperCycling Club. Toyota is also in its third year of sponsoring Cheetahs Rugby. Kerry Roodt, general manager: Marketing Communications at Toyota South Africa had the following to say about team Driepoort Toyota: “For Toyota the involvement with team Driepoort Toyota and the Absa Cape Epic is a natural extension of its support for the Toyota Cycle Lab SuperCycling Club.” Reuben and Dane have been riding together on the track and on the road for a while so they are no strangers to this kind of racing. The team follows a strict eating plan and training schedule and train together two to three times a week if their busy schedules allow. “We both work full time which only allows time to train on weekends. We both race
on the track as well and will sometimes fit in a track session during the week if work allows,” says Dane. Reuben, a motoring journalist by profession as well as a South African Guild of Motoring Journalists jury member, will be competing for the first time. Dane who works as a project manager is competing in the Absa Cape Epic for the second time. Dane also competed in the UCI Paracycling World Track Championship in 2012 and broke the South African C54 000 m record. Before the race, Reuben had the following to say about his race expectations: “I don’t really know what to expect in terms of terrain as I have not raced much in the Cape, but one thing is for sure – it’s going to be tough. The Epic has a reputation for being tough, but I’m ready for the suffering.”
Toyota sponsors first paraplegic Cape Epic team. Team Driepoort Toyota consisting of Re uben van Niekerk and Dane Wilson will com pete in the Absa Cape Epic which takes place over eight days in the Western Cape.
