SEATON-SATIONAL!
Property Sales in Excess of R179 million in two months
“
exceeding R179 million at Seaton is testament to Murray Collins’ vision of this unique ocean-side development; as a dynamic catalyst for the new normal, set to unfold on KZN’s prestigious north coast. Nothing like this has been seen in the last three decades.
It’s unprecedented. Property sales valued at R179 million and counting, took place for the first two precincts released at exquisite Seaton, The Bay at Sheffield Beach…and that during a global pandemic. THIS WEEKEND ALONE, Precinct D completely sold out, realising over R80 million in transactional value, with a queue of 50 plus cars waiting for the gates to open for prospective buyers to secure a plot for their dream home. Families, singles, couples travelled north from Durban, Pretoria, Johannesburg and the Free State, all determined to select their stand for their new Sheffield Beach homes in this extraordinary ocean-side development. At Seaton, The Bay, the prime Precinct B beachfront stands are, arguably, the very best sites the north coast has to offer. Only private sales were opened during lockdown level 3, and unsurprisingly, given the demand, sales of R100 million were concluded. More are pending now, as South Africans are freer to move around and view these exclusive sites priced between R3m and R15 million. Remarkably, it’s been three decades since any north coast residential development has had direct beach access, and Seaton has that – over 1km of pristine, beach frontage. And there is no other estate within KZN with ocean views quite like Seaton.
Despite cautious optimism given the current sentiment, Collins Residential – one of Kwazulu-Natal’s most respected residential developers with over 100 years’ experience in property – have been blown away by the response received to date. As Murray Collins said, “It confirms what we’ve instinctively known – if you have an exceptional product in a perfect location at the right price point, there will always be significant demand. Seaton, The Bay is that product. Seaton is not only land in a glorious prime position, it’s land with an unrivalled lifestyle.” The lifestyle offered at Seaton has been in planning for over five years. Given the current emerging micro trends of what people are looking for post Covid, it’s interesting to note that Collins Residential had already identified these needs and integrated them into the masterplan for Seaton. Combine this foresight with the lowest interest rates in 50 years, and new residents will clearly benefit from the developer’s visionary, future-forward planning.
