IS THERE AN AGE RESTRICTION APPLICABLE?

WHAT OWNERSHIP OPTIONS ARE OFFERED?

IS THE DEVELOPMENT SECURE?
Perimeter security around the village is in the form of a wall on the northern boundary and a Clearvu palisade fence on the eastern and western boundaries – both of which are electrified. Our CCTV cameras are monitored 24/7, and access is controlled through a single gated entry point.

WHAT SORT OF LEVIES ARE APPLICABLE?
Senior Lifestyle freehold homes attract a levy due to the Mataffin Macadamia Homeowners’ Association, plus a basic levy to the Care Centre which is paid by all village residents.
WHAT ABOUT MUNICIPAL SERVICES AND RELATED COSTS?
The development forms part of the greater Mataffin township and will be serviced by municipal services. The cost of the services will be as per the prevailing municipal tariffs.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I WANT TO SELL MY PROPERTY OR IT BECOMES PART OF AN ESTATE?
The senior lifestyle units are freehold properties. This means you own the unit outright, and it forms part of your estate. In the event of the owner’s passing, the unit may be sold by the estate’s executors.
The developer does not manage or facilitate resales, so owners typically sell their units through an estate agent of their choice with whom they independently negotiate a commission at the time of sale. All resales are subject to a 1% buy-in levy, which contributes to a levy stabilisation fund to help keep future levy increases within reasonable limits.
DOES THE VILLAGE OFFER ACTIVITIES FOR RESIDENTS?
The Care Centre offers daily activities for all residents. Mataffin Macadamia has a Recreation Committee comprised of passionate residents who believe that strong communities are built on participation, shared experiences and laughter. The committee plans events allowing residents of all ages to engage and connect.
ARE PETS ALLOWED?
Yes. Mataffin Macadamia is a pet-friendly village. The number and type of pets is controlled per the rules; details can be found in the village rules and regulations.
