A three bedroom home in New Court at Alphen Estate is now on the market for R11.95 million.
Mike Greeff, CEO of Greeff Christie’s International Real Estate, says Alphen Estate in Constantia, Cape Town, is renowned for being a highly sought-after area with property having a rich historical significance, as well as excellent geographic location.
This unique opportunity to own a piece of South African history is made even rarer by the fact that it sits in the heart of the prized and fiercely-protected Constantia Greenbelt.
“Townhouses in this development have increased in value by more than 60% since being built in 2005. These properties can be seen as an excellent investment opportunity, as well as a brilliant lifestyle opportunity due to their location,” says Greeff.
Alphen Estate dates back to the early 18th century and is known for being amongst the most historically-significant Dutch properties in the country. The area is also home to the recently refurbished Alphen Boutique Hotel, as well as buildings like The Manor House, The Jonkershuis, The Dower House, The Winery or Great Cellar and The Pressing Cellar.
As a fitting tribute to the legacy of these structures, Greeff says many of the original features remain, and give a tangible touchpoint to the past. In the same vein, the style and layout of New Court at Alphen keep to tradition. Details include tall sash windows, arched entrances, plaster mouldings and carriage lamps. “With Gordon Verhoef and Krause responsible for the build, one can be assured of the best quality workmanship and materials”.
The company has, over the years, been associated with high-profile, landmark projects such as the restoration of the Union Buildings in Pretoria, the City Hall in Cape Town, as well as numerous contracts involving prominent government and public buildings, national monuments, commercial buildings, corporate offices, churches and schools.
New Court at Alphen is a sectional title property which is an opportunity to be part owner of a seven acre estate that is a stone’s throw from Constantia Village, as well as the onramp to the M3 Cape Town.
“This is a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy this unique blend of contemporary, luxury and historic elegance, and the perfect fusion of countryside lifestyle and tranquillity with all the convenience and trappings of state-of-the-art accessibility,” says Greeff.
Alphen Estate offers lock-up and go convenience, strict access control and an entrance that is manned by security personnel 24/7. All of this with the aim of giving you peace of mind.
