Complete
Located 25mins north of Durban in the developing coastal town of Salt Rock, Mt Richmore Estate comprises of serviced land for residential, leisure, retail and commercial development. The first phase of this R3.7-billion development is a residential lifestyle village accommodating 340 homes on a site boasting rolling hills and sea views, flanked by wetland conservation areas.
With so many residential gated estates in near proximity, the goal was to come up with a fresh new architectural language that appeals to every walk of life. This was achieved through a combination of clean lines, natural materials and the unique roof design which all work well to create considered efficient homes. The use of hardwood pergolas and exposed rafters together with the natural stone chimneys and varied wall finishes help create an identity that is youthful and unique. The living areas internally are enhanced by high level glazing built into the mono-pitch roof system, creating a blurred distinction between external & internal spaces whilst still offering a sense of luxury.
Phase 1a includes the completion of the first 7No. Show Homes, together with the Gatehouse and boundary walls. Phase 1b is currently under construction and will include 20No. 2-Bed Apartments together with communal leisure facilities. Axis Mason have also been recently appointed as urban designers for the estate.
