As a result, the town continues to attract families relocating for schooling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are seeing a steady flow of buyers relocating to Makhanda, with our top schools remaining a key driver of demand for family homes,\u201d said Pam Golding Properties area manager Welmarie Calitz.<\/p>\n<p><b>Top schools and lifestyle appeal<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Rhodes University<\/p>\n<p>According to Calitz, many families are moving to Makhanda from larger metropolitan areas, drawn by the combination of outstanding educational facilities and a more manageable, less pressured lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuyers relocating for schooling typically purchase in the R2.5 million to R5 million range, depending on the size and location of the property,\u201d she said. \u201cMany seek spacious family homes with gardens suitable for a permanent relocation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOthers prefer lock-up-and-go townhouses or smaller homes if they intend to live in Makhanda mainly during school terms, while maintaining their primary residence elsewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These properties provide a convenient base for half-term visits, sporting fixtures and other school events, Calitz said. This enables families to remain actively involved in their children\u2019s school lives.<\/p>\n<p>Student accommodation linked to Rhodes University also remains an important segment of the market, with some parents purchasing homes for their children attending the university.<\/p>\n<p>Often, they will rent out additional rooms to other students \u2013 an arrangement that helps offset costs while also creating a longer-term investment opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, schooling is not the only factor attracting home buyers,\u201d Calitz said. \u201cSome are drawn purely by the town\u2019s lifestyle appeal, while others are residents returning to their roots \u2013 including expatriates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the Makhanda market, around R4 million can secure a substantial character home, often with generous proportions, established gardens and, in many cases, heritage architectural features.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese homes are typically located in well-regarded suburbs close to schools and amenities. When appropriately priced properties become available, they tend to attract strong interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>South African expats are also gradually purchasing homes in the town, drawn by both lifestyle appeal and proximity to top schools. Some are even buying investment properties in the area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese investors are attracted by the town\u2019s relatively stable property values, rental demand linked to its educational institutions, and the long-term appeal of owning property in a historic university town,\u201d Calitz said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany expat purchasers appreciate Makhanda\u2019s heritage architecture, strong sense of community and renowned educational institutions, and often purchase in the upper mid-market to premium price ranges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Top suburbs<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Calitz said several Makhanda suburbs \u2013 usually close to leading schools, with attractive architecture and large erven \u2013 consistently attract strong buyer interest.<\/p>\n<p>West Hill, known for its historic homes interspersed with modern residences and situated near the independent schools and Rhodes University, typically records prices ranging from about R2.1 million to R3.4 million.<\/p>\n<p>The suburb of Oatlands, popular among families seeking larger properties, generally offers homes priced between R1.8 million and R2.5 million.<\/p>\n<p>In Hill 60, an elevated residential area to the north-west of the town offering scenic views, homes can typically be acquired in the R1.5 million to R2 million range.<\/p>\n<p>Calitz said lifestyle buyers often seek charming character homes, properties with views or homes with large gardens, typically in the R2 million to R2.5 million price range.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is also renewed interest in areas where buyers are recognising the potential of refurbishing older homes in neighbourhoods with strong long-term appeal,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRefurbished character homes in these areas typically range between R1.1 million and R1.8 million, depending on location and the extent of the upgrades.\u201d These areas include \u2013<\/p>\n<p>Oatlands North, which offers family homes and larger modern or luxury residences, often with scenic views, priced from around R1.3 million to R1.6 million.<\/p>\n<p>Somerset Heights comprises mainly large freestanding homes, which are generally priced between R1.5 million and R1.7 million.<\/p>\n<p>Kingswood, where much of the market consists of one- to four-bedroom townhouses in secure gated developments, priced from approximately R1.2 million to R1.8 million.<\/p>\n<p>Sunnyside, known for its older character homes, sees prices typically range from about R990,000 to R1.3 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst-time buyers \u2013 often young professionals or couples, many of whom are locals entering the property market, tend to look in the R650,000 to R1.5 million price bracket,\u201d Calitz said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemand in this segment has remained relatively steady, supported by employment linked to the education sector, government and local businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Calitz said investors also remain active in the market, particularly where rental demand is strong in central areas of town.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis includes both student accommodation and long-term family rentals. Investment purchases commonly fall in the R750,000 to R1.4 million price range, where buyers can secure properties with good rental potential,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInvestors typically take a medium- to long-term view, often holding properties for between five and 12 years to benefit from both rental income and capital growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>R2.05 million three-bedroom townhouse in Kingswood, Makhanda<\/b><br \/>\n<b>R5.37 million three-bedroom penthouse apartment in West Hill, Makhanda<\/b><br \/>\n<b>R6 million six-bedroom house in Oatlands, Makhanda<\/b><br \/>\n<b>R17.5 million, 527-hectare game farm in Makhanda<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">South-Africa<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
