80% SOLD OUT - This is Your Last Chance to Call Greenhaven Estate Home!

Durban’s premier over-50s lifestyle estate is entering its final chapter, and the numbers speak volumes about its success. The entire estate is now 80% sold out, with Sagewood, the eagerly anticipated final development phase, already approaching 50% sold. Its no exaggeration to say that this is your last opportunity to secure a home in this sought-after community. With demand showing no signs of slowing, Shelley Residential anticipates that Greenhaven Estate will be completely sold out by the first quarter of 2026.

A Launch to Remember
The remarkable momentum seen in recent months was clear during the highly successful Sagewood launch event in April 2025. Visitors were welcomed into the heart of the Greenhaven community, enjoying guided tours, meeting current residents, and soaking up the vibrant atmosphere that defines life in this unique over-50s estate. East Coast Radio’s live broadcast added to the day’s excitement, as guests explored brand-new show units and experienced firsthand the blend of security, comfort and connection that Greenhaven Estate offers. The buzz translated into action, with 30% of Sagewood’s units sold within weeks of the event. This surge reflects just how strongly the market is responding to the value this estate represents for over-50s looking for more than just a home.

Why Buyers Are Choosing Greenhaven
Buyers are drawn to Greenhaven Estate’s promise of effortless living in a secure, pet-friendly environment where neighbours become friends and community is at the heart of daily life. The estate has been designed from the ground up to provide complete peace of mind, with 24-hour security, access control and on-site CCTV surveillance. The homes themselves are modern, single-level residences that cater to both style and practicality, offering features such as open-plan living areas filled with natural light, contemporary kitchens, stylish bathrooms, private gardens and covered patios. Every home has been carefully considered to provide comfort and accessibility, including drive-up access with carports or garages and wheelchair-friendly layouts that make everyday living easier. The estate’s beautifully landscaped gardens, preserved wetlands and abundant birdlife create a natural, serene setting where residents can truly relax.

Exceptional Value Meets Unmatched Demand
Scott Allnatt, Co-Founder of Shelley Residential, attributes the extraordinary demand not only to Greenhaven’s lifestyle offering, but also to its exceptional value. Speaking about the response to the estate’s overall success, he said: “What we’re seeing is a great mix of value and demand. This truly unique estate offers unmatched peace of mind, outstanding quality, and lifestyle benefits at a price that simply makes sense. Buyers who are seeking security, community and a hassle-free way of life recognise that Greenhaven Estate stands out as one of the finest opportunities in Durban's over-50s market. With Sagewood already nearing 50% sold and the estate 80% sold overall, the window of opportunity is closing fast. Now is the time to act.”

Quality Homes Priced Right
With prices starting from R1.2 million and no transfer duty payable, buyers are finding that the estate represents an opportunity to invest in their future without compromising on quality or lifestyle. The levies are affordable and cover the maintenance of all communal areas, security services and resort-style amenities, allowing residents to simply enjoy their home without the stress of upkeep.

Years In The Making: A Vision Come Alive
For Thiru Govender, CEO of Melki Group and the visionary behind Greenhaven Estate, the nearing completion of sales marks the realisation of a dream many years in the making. Reflecting on the journey and what the final phase represents, Govender shared: “Greenhaven has always been about creating more than just a place to live - it’s about building a community where people can thrive, feel secure and enjoy life without the usual worries that come with homeownership. Seeing that vision come together, with neighbours becoming friends and so many residents embracing the lifestyle we set out to create, has been incredibly rewarding. As we move into this final chapter, we’re proud to offer buyers one last opportunity to be part of something truly special.”

A Lifestyle Designed for Connection, Health and Well-being
The estate’s amenities have been thoughtfully designed to foster connection and well-being. The clubhouse serves as a lively hub where residents gather for coffee, meals or social events, while the swimming pool, gym and bowling green encourage an active, healthy lifestyle. The on-site care centre offers added peace of mind, providing healthcare support as and when it is needed. All of this is framed by Greenhaven’s natural beauty, with walking trails winding through preserved wetlands where birdlife flourishes and tranquillity reigns.

Your Last Chance
If you have been considering a move to Greenhaven Estate, consider this the curtain call - your last chance to call this place home before it’s doors close! The combination of secure living, low-maintenance modern homes, vibrant community life and exceptional value is resonating with buyers, and demand continues to rise as availability dwindles. With the final phase almost 50% sold and the estate already 80% spoken for, the window of opportunity is closing fast.
