Estate living has long been gaining popularity in South Africa, offering security, self-sufficiency and an enviable lifestyle. However, this has been extended with the rise of farm-style estate living, where people are swapping out suburban gardens for smallholdings while still benefiting from the estate’s attributes. Although fast gaining traction, many South Africans often have to choose between coastal living and farm living – something the latest Restilridge Farm Estate on the KZN South Coast is changing.
“Farm-style living has captured the imagination of South Africans because it offers what people increasingly value – space, wellbeing, security and a genuine connection with nature,” says Barto van der Merwe, Managing Director of Renishaw Property Developments. “While we’ve already seen this model thrive in the KZN Midlands, the Cape Winelands and elsewhere, it’s increasingly taking root closer to the KZN coastline.”
