Unveiling Shongweni Park: A New Icon on the KZN Horizon

Date: October 11, 2023

Location: Westown, KwaZulu-Natal

We have once again expanded our footprint in KwaZulu-Natal. Shongweni Park, the newest addition to the Balwin family, promises to be a landmark lifestyle estate situated in the iconic Westown development near Hillcrest, Durban's outer west. This venture embodies our commitment to creating vibrant communities with environmentally sustainable practices, extending beyond brick and mortar.

A New Jewel in KZN

Shongweni Park stands as a testament to our dedication to providing not just homes, but complete lifestyles. Over the next four years, this sprawling estate will emerge in 20 phases, delivering a total of 1,260 thoughtfully designed apartments. Our Classic brand will underpin the development, ensuring Residents experience unmatched living.

Apartments of Distinction

With a vision of offering homes, not just houses, Shongweni Park's one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments come complete with appliances. Gas stoves, fridges, washing machines/dryers, and dishwashers accompany each unit.

Eco-Friendly Living

At Balwin, we believe in sustainable living, and this commitment extends to Shongweni Park. Every apartment will carry the coveted IFC EDGE Advanced certification. The advantages of this eco-friendly approach translate into substantial savings for homeowners. Reduced utility charges, alongside eligibility for Balwin's Green Bonds, create an unprecedented opportunity for homeowners to save significantly over the bond term.

A World of Recreation

A six-star Green-rated lifestyle centre awaits Residents, with a cornucopia of amenities included in the monthly levy. You'll find a state-of-the-art Training Science Gym, a children's play area, a shimmering swimming pool, and running/walking tracks. A concierge service will ensure your every need is met.

Added Luxuries

Shongweni Park offers much more than just apartments. Residents can pamper themselves at the on-site spa, keep their clothes fresh and clean at the laundromat, and savour delectable meals at the in-house restaurant. We don’t just build homes; we craft lifestyles.

Rooted in Tradition

The name "Shongweni" derives from iTshongweni, meaning "column of smoke." It pays homage to the Ugede waterfall, a local landmark near Hillcrest.

A Part of Westown's Grand Vision

Shongweni Park is not just a standalone development; it's part of the grand tapestry of Westown. This mixed-use development encompasses residential spaces, retail outlets, offices, a private hospital, a school, and a green belt area. It's a holistic vision of urban living, where every need is met within your community.

Coming Soon

Shongweni Park is set to break ground in mid-2024. The apartments, with offerings catering to different needs, are expected to range from R899,900 to R2,099,900.

Shongweni Park isn't just a housing development; it's a promise of a life well-lived. With its environmental consciousness, commitment to savings, and an array of amenities, it's a complete lifestyle package. The groundbreaking ceremony next year heralds the dawn of a new era in KZN living. So, get ready to make Shongweni Park your home, where luxury meets eco-consciousness, and community bonds are nurtured.
