The benefits of estate living
Estate living continues to be a popular option for South Africans in search of a sound investment and a more relaxed lifestyle. Here’s a closer look at three of the benefits of living in a secure residential estate.
1. Security
One of the main attractions of residential estates is that they offer residents security and, therefore, peace of mind. Westbrook, for example, has the following security measures in place: perimeter fencing with CCTV, guarded gatehouses, state-of-the-art access systems, boundary walls and electric fencing around each residential village, 24-hour security patrols, a security control room, and homes equipped with alarm and security systems.
2. Lifestyle
Thanks in large part to the security measures mentioned above, residential estates enable homeowners to live a more relaxed, lock-up-and-go lifestyle. Many estates also offer a walkable environment and green spaces, where residents can enjoy time outdoors within the safety of the estate. This is certainly true of Westbrook, which is situated on a 128-hectare greenbelt with parklands, children’s play areas, pedestrian pathways and bicycle lanes.
3. Community
Estate living fosters a sense of community, and you’re likely to get to know your neighbours in the course of daily life and through events like homeowners association meetings. Many estates also actively engage with residents through monthly newsletters, which keep homeowners up to speed with estate news and upcoming events.
If you think estate living is the right choice for you and your family, why not explore what Westbrook has to offer? Based in Port Elizabeth, this brand new suburb will be home to nine residential security estates and offers homeowners the opportunity to invest in affordable designer homes.
