Zululami Estate - The next North Coast success story

One of the most successful entrepreneurs in History, Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, once quipped about being an 'overnight' success. "And like most other overnight successes, it was about twenty years in the making". Most success stories are built on years of grinding, hard knocks and hard work. Through a combination of factors, a success story is thrust into the spotlight and the public are unaware or forget about the formative years that preceded the 'overnight' success.

Development success stories often experience similar journeys. The North Coast's two most famous and prosperous developments are great examples of this. Zimbali Coastal Estate was launched multiple times and took years to gain traction in the early 2000s. Whilst Zimbali was starting to flourish, Simbithi Eco Estate, launched in 2003, stood mostly undeveloped for the better part of a decade until WBHO purchased the development and invested an enormous amount into infrastructure. The WBHO investment, coupled together with large developers with 'know how' building large sectional title developments, smaller builders developing high quality individual homes, and estate agencies pushing sales, led to the Simbithi success stories of the early 2010's.

As we begin a new decade, another large North Coast development is poised to launch into one of the areas undoubted success stories - Zululami Luxury Coastal Estate. As with Zimbali and Simbithi, the estate is in a prime location with beautiful views of the Indian Ocean and beach access available (over the road) onto Christmas Bay and through its neighbour, Seaton Estate. The estate's developers, The Collins Group, are putting the finishing touches on their state-of-the-art Wetland Clubhouse. The proposed Sheffield diamond N2 interchange, which will improve traffic flow in the Sheffield suburb and make Zululami more accessible has been detailed in the Strategic Transportation study published by the KwaDukuza Municipality.  The first sectional title development, Aura, is sold out and nearing completion. Well-established developers in the area, such as Nichol Projects and Cen Prop developments have started developing in the estate. Several builders and smaller developers who contributed to the growth in Simbithi have moved their operations to Zululami.

Forming part of this catalytic activity is an eight-unit boutique development, Savili. The development is designed and will be built by the internationally award-winning team of Casa Design and Construction, and HUNT Properties has been mandated to sell this exciting new development.
