With soaring demand for retirement accommodation in South Africa - particularly with quality medical facilities on site - the auctioning of three frail care centres in upmarket retirement villages, and three separate two-bedroom retirement units, offers lucrative investment opportunities, says MC du Toit, chief executive Auctions and Sales for BidX1 South Africa. The auction house has catalogued the properties for its next online sale on December 4.
Du Toit says all three centres will be sold separately and then together, while the three two-bedroom units - in Villa Cortona Retirement Village in Durbanville - will be sold individually and separately from the frail care centres.
The frail care centres in Cape Town’s northern suburbs are:
* Villa Cortona Retirement Village in Graanendal Lifestyle Estate, Durbanville.
* Fontaine Bleau Retirement Village in Welgelegen.
* La Vie Est Belle Retirement Village in Bonne Sante Bulding in Sonstraal Heights.
The retirement villages have a combined total of 88 beds and feature views of Table Mountain and Table Bay.
Fontaine Bleau facilities include lounges with fireplace, and a ladies' bar and a library, while Villa Cortona has a coffee shop, laundry, ladies' bar and gym.
Other properties on auction by BidX1 on December 4 include a four-bedroom home in sought-after, secure and pet-friendly Stonehaven Estate, located against a backdrop of Silvermine Mountains.
This spacious property includes two bathrooms, two lounges, two garages, a swimming pool, wooden deck with braai area, garden, automated gates and an alarm system.
Also on offer in Cape Town is a 69m² sectional title open-plan modern penthouse in the Circa Luxury Apartment Hotel in Roggebaai Square in the CBD.
This property is within walking distance of most amenities including shops, gym, restaurant and hospitals.
The unit is part of a rental pool.
Finally, in Muizenberg, the offering is a well-positioned two-bedroom apartment in a high demand area.
The unit is in a well-maintained block with its own restaurants and shops, and other trendy restaurants a short walk away.
