New retirement village launched for White River

Mere kilometres away from the KMI Airport, as well as the Kruger National Park, the new Nooitgedacht Manor village on the northern side of White River, is an ideal place to settle for retirement.

Jean Ehlers, residential development director of the Devmark Property Group, expressed his excitement about this tenth retirement village development of the group.

“It is situated in a peaceful corner of the Lowveld, with homes combining traditional Bushveld style with contemporary appeal,” he said.

Nooitgedacht Manor village  will be Devmark Property Group’s first outside the Western Cape.

With almost 30 years of property development success, Devmark’s retirement centre portfolio already includes successful villages such as Cle de Cap, Legato, Heritage Manor, Onrus Manor, La Vie Est Belle, Villa Cortona, and more recently Helderberg Manor, The Plettenberg Manor and Langebaan Manor.

The five phases of the development will offer 63 freehold homes, apartments and a full service Samaritan- operated sub-acute hospital. Furthermore, it will boast excellent communal facilities and state-of-the-art security.

Nooitgedacht Manor is only a few hundred metres from two of the Lowveld’s best-loved entertainment and shopping destinations, the Bagdad and Casterbridge Centres.

“The area has one of the best climates nationwide. It also offers a diverse range of tropical and citrus fruit farms, fresh vegetables and cut flowers. Residents will have plenty of time to enjoy the area,” Ehlers said.

The residents will be able to watch the sunset from their verandas as the crickets hum and the braais sizzle. For the more active residents, there will be landscaped gardens with acacia trees in which to take a stroll in the early evening. The clubhouse facilities will include a coffee shop, hair and beauty salon, library services, a shuttle bus, heated pool and gym.

The development will offer three accommodation types, ranging from freehold homes to cottages and flats. With a choice of eleven luxury home types, ranging in size from 85m² to 220m², the largest options have three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a double garage.

Two-bedroomed homes offer one bathroom and a single garage, with cottages offering two bedrooms and one bathroom. The one- and two- bedroomed apartments offer a full bathroom, kitchen and dining room.

Prices range from R1,495 to R3,895 million.

All units will offer open-plan living. Materials, textures and layouts pay homage to the local environment and history, including large stoep and braai areas to enjoy the scenery and moderate climate.

Quality finishes and a range of optional extras make it easy to personalise. Quartz kitchen tops, ceramic floor tiles, charcoal aluminium window frames and lantern exterior lights create a Bushveld ambience. Units also come with a gas hob, electric oven and extractor, as well as prepaid electricity meters.

Ehlers concluded that the property group’s philosophy is to offer retirees an exceptional and secure lock-up-and-go lifestyle.
