An architect’s perspective of Gary Vos’ Beach Walk development, which will have 11 luxury apartments.

Teaming up again with developer Gary Vos, Mike Abrahamse of Rawson Properties’ Blaauwberg franchise, is selling 11 luxury beach house apartments in Vos’ latest development, Beach Walk.

The new project is in Waves Edge, Bloubergrandt and is the sixth West Coast project that Abrahamse has marketed for Vos’s Blouberg Coastal Properties Trust group.

The architect, Enrica van der Linden, has opted for a clapboard façade and mono pitched roofs that will give the complex the popular Cape Cod look. Van der Linden says she wanted to create a beach related project that would be filled with light and encourage informal living.

Beach Walk will consist of seven one-bedroom units and four two-bedroom units. Four of the apartments will have private gardens. Six garages are tucked in under the homes and each apartment will have its own dedicated, secure parking bay in the complex grounds.

“Floors will be tiled or wood and the interiors will have cool neutral beach colours in shades of light blue and white,” says Abrahamse. “Fittings include stainless steel ovens, hobs and extractors and granite work surfaces.”

Prices at Beach Walk begin at R599 000 for one bedroom units and at R799 000 for two-bedroom units up to R895 000 for north facing ground floor units with landscaped private gardens.

A landscaped park with a children’s jungle gym is also planned for the complex.

“An optional full furniture package is available to buyers which is especially well suited for those buying apartments as holiday accommodation and planning to rent them out when they are not using them,” says Abrahamse.

Furniture packages are priced at R17 000 for one-bedroom units and R20 000 for two-bedroom units. These packages include TV sets, refrigerators, blinds and linen.

A sales office will be established on site. Occupation of the units is scheduled for early December and transfers are expected to take place during February 2012.
