ADVERTORIAL
Sandton Gate is a prime investment development not only because of its rapidly expanding precinct that provides urban convenience, but its luxurious designer living options for residents
As buyers pursue the ultimate work/life balance, the demand for residential homes within mixed-use developments has soared. Craft Homes’ exciting Sandton Gate precinct takes urban living to the next level – and with 70% of the development sold out and apartments now ready for occupation, life at Sandton Gate has begun to take shape.
Located only five minutes from the Sandton CBD and close to Rosebank, Randburg, Bryanston and Hyde Park, Sandton Gate is ideally situated for young professionals who want to live close to Sandton Central but within the leafy suburbs, and seasoned investors looking to invest in property that appeals to both long-term and short-term renters. The Terrace at Sandton Gate offers its residents a cosmopolitan way of life and has been designed to provide the ultimate lock-up-and-go convenience within a precinct that provides all amenities the modern buyer could want.
DESIGNED FOR LIVING
The first phase of commercial building was completed in 2019, which saw the creation of office space and retail operations such as a 011-Baron eatery, Planet Fitness, the Seattle Coffee Company, beauticians, and a salon setting up shop around the bustling piazza.
The residential building was completed in December 2022. “The third phase will consist of high-end convenience retail – set to break ground mid 2023,” says Jarrid Rahme, sales and marketing director for Craft Homes.
“With construction now complete and the retail component of the precinct on the horizon, this is a perfect time for purchasers to invest,” says Jarrid. “Investing now will see high growth opportunities in not only a monthly yield for the buy-to-let market but also from a capital growth perspective for owner occupiers.”
INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES
A variety of units are available to choose from suitable for both investors and homeowners. Buyers can select a two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit starting from R2.1m or a three-bedroom, three-bathroom penthouse with a private garden from R6.950m. The development is supported by a backup generator and, with 24/7 on-site security and an elevator that takes residents directly to their floor from the access-controlled basement parking, safety is top priority.
The property is also managed by a full-time building manager, ensuring the smooth running of everything and swift action when concerns are raised. “Having an on-site building manager provides comfort to both investors and homeowners as they know that their interests are being taken care of,” says Jarrid. “We have appointed a well-known property management company who have placed a very hands-on manager on site so that our residents know we take their needs seriously.”

A COMFORTABLE LIFE
There’s no doubt that everyday living is much more enjoyable when all the facilities you need are on your doorstep. One of the main factors driving residential investment is that the Terrace at Sandton Gate provides easy access for residents to the Precinct as a whole, catering for a lifestyle of comfort that’s second to none. Residents can go for a jog at the Braamfontein Spruit or head over to Planet Fitness for their daily workout. They can also pop over to The Seattle Coffee Company for coffee to go, enjoy a family meal at 011 Baron or even pop over to the office for a quick visit or team meeting, as Sandton Gate has a variety of office solutions for big or small businesses. “When selecting the retail tenants for the first phase of the commercial and retail space, we looked to establish partnerships with brands that provide all homeowners at Sandton Gate with a more convenient way of living,” says Jarrid. “Our retail partners cater to the high-end needs of our clients and match the fast-paced and vibrant energy of the go-getters that call Sandton Gate home.”
AN EVOLVING BRAND
The third commercial phase – expected to start mid 2023 – will be the cherry on top for buyers, with exciting anchor tenants such as Dischem, Woolworths and Shoprite taking the lead in offering residents within Sandton Gate and surrounding neighbourhoods the ultimate in convenience shopping. A curated mix of hospitality brands are in the pipeline for the precinct, including fine dining and family restaurants as well as a hotel. As the precinct takes shape, it’s offering will continue to develop through partnerships with various brands that offer the upmarket, convenient lifestyle that Sandton Gate residents are seeking.
