Development team

The Mountain Crest team draws from the experience of renowned and reputable industry experts like Minprop Developers, Dennis Moss Town-planners and Architects, Zutari Consulting Engineers (previously known as Aurecon), Devilliers and Moore Consulting Electrical Engineers, 53 Power Projects Electrical Engineers, DP2 Civil Engineers, and Schone Cedar Construction – who have been developing and providing superior homes with exceptional finishes for years.

‘Living street’ lifestyle

On completion Mountain Crest will house 105 freestanding residential dwellings with the average erven being between 180m² and 415m. 3-bedroom home sizes is on average between 158.2m2 – 280m2. The architectural design presents a modern interpretation of the Cape vernacular architecture with seamless flow from the inside out.

Mountain Crest’s street layout is based on the woonerf - or ‘living street’ lifestyle, where cars, bicycles and pedestrians share the road harmoniously. Attention has also been given to the soft landscaped environment as parking squares and a central community park and secret garden area help give Mountain Crest a sense of identity and formality.

Safety and security

Prices for homes in Mountain Crest start at R3m for 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom free-standing family homes, with a balcony, and the option to add a fourth bedroom to homes on selected plots.

Each home comes with garaging and an additional pergola parking area. Guest parking is plentiful. All of the homes in Mountain Crest are framed by a 1.8m wall between neighbours, protecting your privacy and security. In addition to this, each home is given the option of a solar power solution which enables homes to be functional during load-shedding and makes working from home a reality.

The security offered by the estate is world-class, with biometric access control, CCTV surveillance, 24-hour on site security, 1.8m perimeter wall, and completely off-grid solar powered streetlights and electric fencing. Being a security development within a greater security environment, Mountain Crest is dependably safe and secure so you can have peace of mind to focus on the things that really matter.

Homes are fitted with upmarket finishes like Hans Grohe taps, granite tops, led down-lights throughout, elite slate-roof tiles, standard Bosch stoves with the option to upgrade, braai area and a wide array of optional extras that give you a freedom of choice quite uncommon to homes in the sub-R3million category.

Multiple measures like for instance the borehole water and solar energy that powers the street lamps throughout the estate have been implemented to make sure that levies within the estate are kept as low as possible.

Unmatched value

When you consider these benefits, along with unmatched value provided by Mountain Crest Private Estate, it’s easy to see why 82 families and investors have already chosen to purchase homes in this development. Currently, there are approximately only 20 opportunities left and counting. Bigger erven with spectacular mountain views are especially rare, with only 2 left where you can place a double garage. The most popular plan is the Type 1, of which there is only four remaining.

Since Mountain Crest has been pre-approved by all four major South African banks, 100% bonds are available for buyers and because you are buying directly from the developer, there are no transfer costs to you.

For potential investors, it is worth noting that Paarl currently has far more demand than supply as far as rentals go, which of course translates to you receiving a solid rental return. The developers are also offering a one-stop property management service whereby they source tenants and manage your rental investment on your behalf.

Homeowners in Mountain Crest on hand-over receive also a multitude of warranties/guarantees for example, 10 years on solar panels, 15 years on Hans-Grohe taps that ensures hassle-free living.
