Salt Rock City Development on KZN North Coast�
The North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) continues to establish itself as one of South Africa’s most attractive destinations for families, investors, and homebuyers. The region, renowned for its stunning beaches, natural beauty, and mild climate that is also still close to key business and transport hubs, will soon become home to the latest of Devmco Group’s developments that has created substantial hype by locals and investors leading up to its launch on 29th of March 2025.
Brad Winstanley, Commercial Director at Devmco Group, explains that as the North Coast continues to attract a diverse demographic, Salt Rock City stands out as a prime example of the region’s appeal. Set to launch this coming Saturday 29 March at New Salt Rock City Shopping Centre, this exclusive residential development offers 3- and 4-bedroom homes starting from R3.5 million and land from R950,000. With a focus on family living, Salt Rock City will combine contemporary architecture with natural surroundings, providing private gardens, open-plan interiors, and seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces.�
“The region’s exceptional educational facilities, robust security measures, quality healthcare, diverse retail offerings, stunning natural beauty and the proximity to King Shaka International Airport all contribute to its undeniable allure. Stats and facts about the demand for housing in this area along with the attractive investment opportunities were key contributing factors for our decision to develop the land in this area”, says Winstanley. According to Rainmaker Marketing’s November 2023 Property Market Report, the average price of a sectional title unit within estates in these areas exceeded those outside by 48% in Ballito and 49% in Salt Rock over the past year. Additionally, freehold sales within estates have outpaced those outside estates by 144% in Ballito and 190% in Salt Rock, reflecting the continued dominance of estate living in the region.
The report also highlights a substantial increase in the average household income in both towns, with Ballito seeing an 89% increase and Salt Rock a 144% increase since 2020. This surge in affluence has contributed to the rapid growth of the local property market, attracting both local and international investors looking to capitalise on the region’s strong performance.
Winstanley added that Salt Rock City is part of the region’s broader growth story. “The continued expansion of Salt Rock reflects the broader investment potential of the region, which is experiencing strong capital appreciation for sectional title properties in some of the region’s top-performing estates. Developments like Salt Rock City are poised to create more job opportunities, attract international visitors, and stimulate further growth in the overall region”.
Just a short distance from Curro Salt Rock School and local shopping centres, Salt Rocky City development will be an ideal family-orientated base for those seeking close proximity to both work and play. The development boasts world-class amenities, including a community clubhouse, nature trails, 24/7 security, swimming pool, padel court, and kids’ play areas which are all designed to create a strong sense of community and enhance the quality of life for future residents. Strengthening its ties with the local community, Salt Rock City participated in the Curro Salt Rock School Open Day earlier this month, giving future homeowners the opportunity to experience the neighbourhood’s spirit firsthand through a classic boerewors braai.
“Ahead of Saturday’s launch event starting at 9 am sharp, prospective buyers can explore all available plots and information using the interactive map on the website. On launch day to reserve a plot, buyers need to make a R50,000 deposit in order to secure their preferred opportunity. Those choosing one of the home build options will enjoy the benefits of a full turnkey build solution.,” adds Winstanley.�
